“I didn't realize it was as full as it was. I'm up to the brim.”
What do RV park events need?
Park dances, craft fairs and potlucks usually need 2–4 standard units, one wheelchair-accessible unit and a handwash station near the food. Book season events in October, before parks and routes fill.
How often should an RV tank be pumped?
A full-time couple usually fills a typical 40-gallon black tank in about 4 to 7 days, so long-stay guests without sewer hookups usually book a weekly pump-out. Run water with every flush and call before the tank is at the brim — an overfull tank is slower to empty.
| RV setup | Typical black tank | Suggested pump-out |
|---|---|---|
| Solo, part-time use | 30–40 gal | Every 10–14 days |
| Couple, full-time | 40 gal | Weekly |
| Family or guests | 40–50 gal | Twice weekly |

Where portable restrooms serve the public, the 2010 ADA Standards section 213.2 calls for at least 5% of units in each cluster, and no fewer than one, to be accessible. In our call log, a 2,000-person festival had not planned any until dispatch asked. Plan at least one.
