portable grey waste disposal cart

I don't plan to lift the tote/cart at all; I plan to hitch it to the ball of the SUV and dump it. Now, if CA starts charging $10 for every dump, I'll have to go to Plan B. But this all is really just a backup. At our age we are staying at more full hookups, and the 16 ft Scamp is really too small to stay in for more than 4 nights without hookups.

I have a 6gal tote. I can lift it just as easily as a 5gal bucket. When filled, it is more securely closed than a bucket.

That was why I asked. Sure the big totes aren't liftable, but you can get smaller totes.

Weight?

35 lbs is manageable for most people.

The 11 gallon tote the OP bought becomes 80 lbs, which is manageable for some, but not for all.

Those 20 gallon totes? No way at 150 lbs that thing is getting put in the bed...

I ended up with the Tote-N-Stor 25606 Portable Waste Transport - 11 Gallon Capacity ( thank you Raleigh metro for your comment about the wheels; helped me make a decision!) and also bought the designated sewer hose, etc.

Thank you to everyone who commented in it all was extremely helpful. This forum is the best.

We bought a little 6 gallon tote and store off amazon. Small enough for my wife or I to pick up and put in the SUV and deal with it a facility. We also have a small trailer with small tanks.

I found an 11 gal tote and I'll get the designated dump hoses and a simple bar to hook to the wheels and place over the ball of my SUV. The tote is shallow enough to strap to the back of our little trailer behind the bikes. I had to laugh at the plastic wheels smoking! This tote has pretty fat wheels, but good to remember they ARE plastic.

We have a 35 gallon tote that I found out 2 months ago in FL is higher than the waste outlet on our newer 5Er. We hauled it around for 2800 miles for no reason. Somebody around here will want it.
We usually stay in state and federal parks with dump stations and with huge waste tanks we can go 9-10 days with frugal water use. If we're going to stay longer it's easier to just haul the coach to the dump on the 7th day and put it back on the site.
The totes can get very heavy and the dump is usually way out by the exit. I see some folks going by every day with a little tote and smoke coming off of the plastic wheels.

Worst case, they stay in the bed of the truck until I get home and can dump them out on my own land.

Eek! That would be OK if we had a truck. Buckets swishing around (even with tight lids )in the back of my Honda Passport would be unnerving! You are fortunate to have a truck - and land to dump it in :-).
