With shipping this came in at $175. Can get a similar one from Amazon for a little less. Breaker for my house was another $20. Couple fittings for a few more bucks. Short runs for wire from your breaker to outside means a smaller and less expensive cable. I was close to $200 all in for power.

That way you can just pull your sewer valves and the gray and black water waste is gone, just a memory. No long term plumbing headaches to worry about. Some cities will not allow installation of a dump station because of the risk of contaminating ground drinking water if seapage should occur. But most will allow installing a regular sewer connection since it goes straight to the sewer. So just something to think about.
If correctly placed, the "dump station" is simply an addition to the existing sanitary sewer system, be it a water system type sewer or a septic tank system. Your dump stations at a vast majority of the state parks are simply a septic tank system.

I added a fitting to the top of one caps for the septic tank on one of my rental properties. I would have added to my septic at the house, but I wouldn't be able to get the coach into place. What I finished today is a short term solution. My long term solution will be garbage disposal turned macerator to pump it into the house septic, but the coach garage will be tied into that septic.
