How to use a portable waste Tote / Blue Boy (RV Living Full Time) 4K

Even as full time RVers, we prefer to camp at state parks like the ones we are staying at this winter in Florida, rather than private RV parks. They offer a much more natural environment and spacious sites. The problem is they do not offer a sewer hookup most of the time. We like to stay the limit at state parks, which is usually about 2 weeks, but our grey water tank fills up in about a week even when using water conservatively.

So, what do we do with our poo? We use a "blue boy" but not for what you think.

Our grey tank is smaller than newer models of the Grand Design Solitude so we need to empty our grey tank about once every week. since we like to sit still for at least a week, but prefer two weeks, that's why we need a blue boy. But luckily we haven't needed to use our portable waste tote for the black tank.

Even if you think you will never use one, check out the reasons why you might need one, the best way to use them, and the blue boy we are currently using. And know Larry added his extra DIY to even this tutorial for beginner RVers and experienced alike.

What can we do when our Grey Tank is Full?
Option 1
Use the bathhouse for showers to stretch our grey tank to 14 days (Why do we have an RV?)
Option 2
Hitch up, drive to RV to the dump station, Dump and then Unhitch (What a Hassle)
Option 3
Use a Portable Waste Tote (Blue Boy) to dump our grey water (Much easier)

We are a married couple in our mid 50s who downsized and sold our house so we can see the sights and enjoy every day to live deliberately as full time RVers - traveling with our dogs, Scrappy & Chewie, in our 2017 Grand Design Solitude 310 GK fifth wheel.
