Re: [A/S] waste holding tank maintenance



An old timers hint is to drive your rig down the road a few miles or more 
before you dump it.  The solishing around of  the contents  will help 
insure good cleanout. Other suggestions on this same line is to put a bag 
of ice cubes in the tank and these solid cubes will help break up any 
solids that have accumulated.  Most folks will put a gallon or so of 
water in tank after flushing and add a little tank treatment which also 
does some cleaning on the the trip home.  If you think you have a problem 
then dump your tank in a bucket after you get home.  Then reload a gallon 
or so and more treatment to keep tank ready for next trip.
