Compact jr gray water

[THOMASJU]

Getting ready to make my first trip (about a week long) in my Cjr. The sink just drains out the side to a garden hose fitting. What is an acceptable (legal) way to trap the sink water for disposal without adding any more plumbing ??
Thanx, TJ

You get a 5 gallon container with a cap on it, put it on the ground and drain into that using a short length of hose. You then empty that container in an approved manner, whatever that is.....

You mean like a 5 gal paint can from Home Depot with a full lid and a small screw top? Just drain sink-water into the screw-top hole and empty it ( properly) as necessary?? Sounds simple enuff.

Besides being too heavy for these old folks a regular 5 gallon container won't fit under our drain. Not enough clearance. We have a vegetable oil bottle we picked up at a restaurant that fits. Even that is a bit heavy. what we use most often is a large detergent bottle. Our water needs are small. Haven't felt the need to buy larger tanks with wheels, etc.

Anyway, measure your clearance, water doesn't run uphill too easily.

Easy Peasy, .
For a lower fitting, try a 5 gallon Coleman collapsible water container, it's much lower and has an easy carry handle on it.

My Hunter Drain outlet is 37" off the ground

My sister uses a big blue polyethylene container which has its own wheels (they call them "rolling thunder" ). It lies on the ground below the trailer, and she has a 3-foot hose that goes from the drain to the container.

I just bought two (new) of these for $10 each at a swap meet. I will use one for fresh, the other for gray water (well marked of course). A little pricy new, but I like them a lot better than those flat tanks.

My dad has a collapsible "bladder" that's about 3 gals for holding grey water when he's in a campground. It doesn't take up much room while empty and it's super light weight.
