    RV dump station questions

    How do I find an RV dump station near me?

    Tap "Use my location" at the top of this page to see the 10 closest of the 3,687 dump stations we list, or pick your state to browse by town. Truck stops, state parks, campgrounds, RV dealers and some city wastewater plants are the most common places with a public dump station.

    How much does it cost to use an RV dump station?

    Many public dump stations are free, especially at rest areas and city-run sites. Others charge a small fee, and campgrounds often let only registered guests use theirs or charge non-guests. Of the stations in our directory with a known price, 188 are free. Each listing shows the fee when we know it.

    Where can I dump my RV tanks for free?

    See our list of free RV dump stations, grouped by state. City-run dump sites, highway rest areas and some state parks are the most common free options. Always confirm before you go, because free sites sometimes start charging or close for the season.

    Can I dump RV waste at any campground?

    Not always. Many campgrounds reserve their dump station for overnight guests, and some charge a day-use fee to everyone else. Listings marked "Customers / guests only" follow that rule. Call ahead if you are not staying there.

    What do I need to use an RV dump station?

    A sewer hose with the right fittings, disposable gloves, and a separate rinse hose (never your drinking-water hose). Dump the black tank first and the grey tank second so the grey water rinses the hose. Our step-by-step guide covers the whole process.
