Dump Station Etiquette That Keeps the Loop Happy

A clean dump is part of being a good neighbor. Rushing the hose, skipping gloves, or leaving the bay wet is how loops get sour reviews and closed stations.

Quick checklist

• Gloves on before the cap comes off.
• Hose downhill, fittings snug, then open the valve slowly.
• Rinse bay and your fittings before you roll.
• Cap tight, hose stowed, hands washed.

If you run black tank duty often, lean into the joke and the job. Shop Certified Dump Station Operator, Tank King, or the full Black Tank collection so the crew knows who owns the hose.

Trail Notes tip: a two-minute rinse now beats a clogged sensor later.
