I think most of the dump station hoses I've seen have the fittings cut off. We carry a 25' grey hose specifically for flushing the black tank. Remove the dumb station hose from the faucet, connect our hose, flush the tank, swap hoses back, hit the road. A minor bother.


We had this happen this past weekend, and did the same as SteveRankin.........

Purchase a Water Thief.

Blue Water Thief



Green Water Thief


I carry two of them. One (green one) is for use at a freshwater hydrant. The other (blue one) is for use at dump stations.

They press on the hose or bib without any threads and allow you to put on your own hose. They have a graduated inside diameter that fits every situation I have come across.

Thanks Barney, thats what I have been looking for.
