Richard I'm not saying to pump out on to a customer's lawn but into their toilet.

Ofer mentioned septic tank-- I guess I forgot that some of you don't have modern plumbing like we do in SF. If That's the case then I can see the need for large waste tanks.

Thanks John for moving the discussion. :biggrin:

Septic would just be for those homes outside the city. We live out in the boonies. Septic tank, propane instead of natural gas, satellite instead of cable. We rough it out here. :winky:

I think I'd much rather risk the landscaping that pumping back into the client toilet. Its like the last one to touch it, owns it. I just don't want to own it when the 210 tank makes it a non issue.

Thanks for the insight.
Its interesting how we all have different logistical challenges in different parts of the USA.
Ofer and I have Parking challenges.
Willy and Goomer will never own a TM.
Others have income and freezing issues in the winter.

I envy those that clean in areas where they put the sewer clean outs outside. Life would be so easy!
Once you come chop wood, I'll also take you for a day of cleaning in S.F.
That will rid of of that envy real quick.

As a matter of fact, I'm quite sure that from then on, you'd be singing Topeka's praises as a grass hopping nightingale.

I'm afraid if I get too far from home for too long...I might not go back. :winky:

I could just keep exploring the country. I wonder if they would send me money to continue my pilgrimage. :shifty:

Likely not. lol

Considering Richard's ease of handling Marty on a daily basis.

Don't ask me. They put them in the basements of homes in this area and most people have finished basements here.
Very inconvenient for pumping into.

Bibs cost more than the humble t-shirt. Which Mighty, who's footing the bill, specified Costy wear when reading his jokes.

I'm afraid that from now on (as the tab grows) he may require Costy to read it buck ....
It's a money saving move.

We have both city sewer and gas, and the farther out you go propane and septic.


I water my tree with waste.

Hasn't killed the tree or the grass, I wouldn't dump a urine job on there, but everything else is fine.

As for at a clients house that's a we use green non toxic chemicals in the desert would you like us to water your tree or put it in a sewer line.

if you use Procyon, it's water and phosphates. No wonder that grass is so green and lush.

It is nicer to have a bigger waste tank the 405 usually 2-3 jobs before dumping, the 570 2 jobs tops. When it's dumping water like mad 1 job.

The pro1200 has a bigger tank and you can do 3-4 jobs easy depend on job size.

For those who can't connect to sewer and can't dump, will a 110 gal be enough for the day?
The SE is 100 gal tank, probably 75 gal or so actual before the shutoff valve goes on.
