Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Honey Wagon?- What Brand do You Use?
Permalink  

I'm looking to buy a portable Waste Tank and don't have a clue. I would really like to hear what brand and size you have. I am looking at the Thetford Smarttote. Anyone have one? How well do you like it?

Would appreciate any information.

We have a poly tank that was given to us when we purchased our 5ver. Its 45"L X 25"W x 19"D. There is a 2 1/2" fill hole, and a 1 3/4" with a ball-valve to empty. We use a mercinator pump to fill it and have a 10'hose that hooks to the ball-valve to empty the tank. The tank fits between the 5th wheel hitch and tailgate. Its also light enough that one person can load and unload it.

 We went to Alaska last summer and stayed on a friends property. We had water and electricity but had to go about 10 miles to dump. With normal usage we could get about 5 days between dumps, the tank came in really handy for us.  

  I have seen others that use those Blue Boy totes, IMO its a waste of time and an accident looking to happen.
