If your solo I would have just pulled forward an dumped on the way out.
You don’t want to open your black sewer line for the first few days for a couple of reasons. Your solids need to be in a good bit of liquid to flow out, usually even with multiple people that’s going to be a few days. Otherwise they just drop to the bottom of your tank or get to the first part of the hose and sit there. And dry out. The pee will flow right past it. You’ll get the dreaded poop pyramid in the tank. Also having it open is letting that gross sewer gas rise and flow up into your RV. Wait until 3 days in and pull forward to dump then if needed, black first then grey to rinse.
If you are just using the grey because of showers, still leave it shut for the first few then open your hose and let it out then close it or you get the sewer aroma coming up through your shower drain and sinks.
Sorry if you already knew all that- it’s shit I wish I had known when I was starting out!
Total newbie question… would it have been easier to just hook up and move foward to dump, and then roll it back?
Last site I stayed at the sewer hole was up hill. I can only imagine the person that designed these spots.
It’s level, I promise. It doesn’t look it because of terrain and perspective and what have you.
The suburban is just barely fitting on the pad in front of the trailer, so it’s not like I backed waaaay back on a long af pad.
I believe the technical term is actually “stinky slinky”, not poop tube 😉
Are you there long-term?
