For the guys that have their own dump station, are you on a septic system, or what did you do? That is on my list for the shop.
Thanks
Sean

my house in MD. was on city water/sewer. i just tied my plumbing in from under the house to where i was parking m/h. then one day the city came out to flush their system, and dug up a clean out in front of the house (near the street) i just started using that one.
my house in DE. is our own sewer system. after garage was up i dug up where sewer lid was and drilled and tied into it with the PVC. re-buried it and ran the line to where i park the m/h. keeping at least a drop in the line was the tricky thing. the final hight was a little more than i would of liked but it still works great!

here is a few pics.
most of the dump pipe is buried. it is about 70' long all together
i also put in a 30 amp RV plug and made a "water tank filler" out of some small PVC.
