As such, I’ll break camp every 5 days, take a short trip to stir things up in the black tank, visit the dump station, and return to our campsite. It’s a bit of a bother, but it solves the problem. As for the gray water, I usually dump that every other day (depending on shower usage, since the campground does not have showers) using the 35 gal towable blue tank. I use the Thetford additive every time I dump the black tank. Works for me!
Why wouldn't you just use the tote to dump your black tank also? If your using the tote to drain the gray tank every other day just make an extra trip when your black tank needs dumping. I would hate to have to break camp and pull the trailer out just to dump it.
