Which of the portable holding tank-things do you use and how do you like it?

I'm leaning towards a 4-wheel Barker Tote-along. Found it at J.C. Whitney with free shipping at a good price.

I like the way it looks because it has a T-handle valve like my gray tank does. Would be easy to operate.

The Smart-tote (Thetford) looks to me like it fills and empties through the same connection (just in different positions) and doesn't look like it has a valve.

The Tote-n-stor you have to lift one end of it up to empty, and it just has 2 wheels so you have to lift to roll it.

What do you use and how do you like it?

I use the tote-n-store. I pull it behind the truck to the dump station. I fill it with a short garden hose that cam with it. (grey water only) and when I get to the dump station, I unhook it and hook up a 3" sewer hose and lift to dump. Pretty easy, and I got it at a great price.

Tote-n-stor. Works alright, you do have to lift it on one end.

Howdy!

We have a Barker 32 gallon with waste valve on the side. They are well built and we have had zero problems with it.
