Tote tanks
We are looking at getting one of the tanks because Wife wants to go to a state park without sewer. How crazy is it to drag a 36 or 42 gallon by hand over gravel?
Also was thinking of going with a pump to pump it up into the truck but not sure if it is worth it.Upstate NY

Many of them have a handle that fits over the ball on a truck hitch. Even if you have a 5th wheel, just make sure to have a ball for your receiver and you wont have to drag it by hand.

Pulling a full one over gravel by hand is a workout, I always tow it with the truck with someone on the tailgate watching.

I have a friend who said he pulls his portable rank with his ebike. I have not seen how he makes the connection but it's an interesting thought.

Use a macerator pump with the tote in the bed of the truck. Drive to the dump station and empty from the truck bed. Easy Peasy…

From what I have read in other forums, it's also important to enusre someone is watching the tote whileyou are towing it. A camper was towing his tote and a wheel came off resulting in the tank rubbing on the ground, creating a nice hole. Yes, he left a slug trail from about midway from his campsite to the dump station.

I have a smaller, 18 gallon tote with 4 rubber (although not pneumatic) wheels. It can take me a couple of trips, but it is VERY easy to manage. The handle can go over the hitch, but it is so simple to just pull it like a wagon.
