Water at camp sites

[Linda.6508]

This is my first time camping in ED 1-can someone tell me how or if we can refill water for our motor home??????

They have water trucks that come around and they normally give you a sign to put up in the window or on your RV/Trailer and the water trucks see it and stop to fill your water for you. Don't remember how much a gallon it is though.

Last I heard, it was $1 a gallon. Don't know what it will be this year though.

Used to be $1 a gallon and then a flat rate I *think* for dirty. I would def bring extra as it can be difficult to get the water truck to get to your RV (and I've heard lots about bribes for order of filling). Every year is different of course!

It is $1 a gallon and then i think after 100 gallons it was a flat rate..

^^^^what she said. It isn't cheap but its there. They drive around offering to pump your waste, sell ice and water for your motor home.^^^^

OK- thanks, I guess I'll bring some extra 5 gallon bottles!!

Anyone have any idea how much it was for them to empty your black or grey tanks for you? That's my concern right now, my rig's tanks aren't that big and I have at least 4 of us in there right now but possible more.

Tell me about it... I only got a 25gal black tank and we have 12 people in our group this year. Im thinking about building a urinal with a funnel and 5gal bucket for the men and keep it outside behind our rig.

It was about $35-$40 in 2010. Catching the guy and getting him to your spot was the hard part. (even though you could smell when he was working his way down your way) Also the headache at that time was you didnt pay or set up with the guy doing the pumping. You had to find the person going ahead of him who took the cash and set you up. It was kinda another pain in the ass if you didn know what to do because if you saw him and tried to grab him, he would only take orders from the "money" person who could have two or three people lined up in front of you. Sunday he was REAL busy, so grab him when you can!

The water guy took cash.

my advice is tell people to just use showers there and portapotties there. they really arent bad. just bring your own TP

My experience has always been cash. Actually last year I know people who paid in a combination of cash and "smoke". They filled their ENORMOUS pool pretty cheap that way.

[sandholic]

Pretty sure they only take cash. That is all that I have ever been able to pay with.

[hpckids]

I know I had cash ready and the person riding around in the golf cart said she could only do debit/credit..I just wanted to let you know just in case it happened again...cash is always easier I know...

He is correct on this. The girls said I could pay card with them and the guy will come back around or pay cash to the pump guy.
