Oh something up my alley! Experience is key.
Back story. 2012 was the first trip to Disney with the trailer. I didn't know how the whole sewer hose worked as the places we have stayed were either pump out service or end of the trip dump station. So we get there and the 10 footer is not going to work since my valve for the black and grey water was in the back. Where I had placed the trailer in the site, I sunk it deep. Electric was no problem since was up front. The cable no problem that too was up front. The water was in the back but a 25 foot hose worked. However the 10 foot stinky slinky was not going to work. My DW and I think my dad with DD as well took the golf cart down to the camp store and bought 2 20 foot sewer hoses with ends and splicer and everything needed for the sewer. I tend to remember hearing a comment of "I don't care that it was expensive. I just don't want to leave the disney bubble..." I want to say it was pretty pricey for the parts. I used those tubes up until this past year. I used them on several additional disney trips since I knew what to expect including a couple of trips to places with FHU.
2019 and 2020 camping seasons. New trailer but now I have 2 valves. 1 up front for Grey 1 and Black. A rear valve for Grey 2 for the galley. I just used the 20 footer I have in the SS holder under the trailer and went back and forth when I needed to dump the tanks. The first time in 2019 we stayed at a FHU campground, the camper next door looked perplexed. I simply said I don't normally have a sewer hook up so I never invested in the getting a set up for waste water removal. I realized that I could use a set up as our last 3 trips that year, I could have used something to make it all work.
2020 rolls around. We stayed mainly at our regular spot. No sewer and the place is remote. No sewers in the area. During our 2 week drive around upstate NY, I finally commited to getting a waste water set up. Interestingly enough, I broke down and bought 2 Rhino Flex 20 foot set ups at Moose Hilllock for the NE Dis meet. Man I was in heaven. Heck the wife rolled out early one morning to resupply the trailer at a local
walmart. She got me a storage tote for the all tubes and parts.
I will admit I definitely paid a premium. However that "do'h tax" was about $20 for each set from what I could tell. I checked around they had it and not the local walmart and
Amazon was higher when I could find the same kit and 3 weeks out. I even told the DW that I should get a set up for the trailer if we are camping in more places with the FHU sites and the like. It just not on the high priorities list. However, I now have a perfect set up for my trailer and it is universal. However, the set up is modular. The tubes are rigid and conforming. They collapse down to 4 feet maybe and are 10 feet fully extended. They can be capped while being stored. The kit also comes with an elbow. I also I got the Y for Christmas the year earlier I should have gotten 2 kits as well. However I know now where ever I go and get a FHU site, I know I can set my waste water without an issue. After Moose, we had one more site on that trip. It was dream. The last trip of the year, I really got to use the modular aspect. The sewer tube was right next to my front tanks. 2 sections for the back. 1 section for the front and I was happy camper. The storage tote holds everything I need. 4 hoses, 1 elbow and 1 wye. Also I have a 50 foot garden hose for the black water flushing port. This Christmas I got another 15 foot sewer support for Christmas. I already had one 15 footer. Funny thing is I carried a 20 foot support in trailer.
So I learned the hard way not once but twice in a way. Funny thing is I wanted to get some hoses for the trailer at some point but my camping trip just forced my hand in the matter. So good luck to all and hopefully my experience will help those who read this. Here is a picture of my set up from Moose Hillock.
