    Sure you don't need a permit? Almost every place does now. How do you plan to bury a tank?

    My son is going to live in a 32ft camper until he can save money and build his home. We are wanting to put a temporary septic in so he doesn't have to tow to a dump station.
    I have heard of a small septic system for RVs but didn't know anything about it.
    Thanks

    Google- quadel industries portable septic tanks. I believe they may have the solution for you. Let me know, okay? Shouldn't need a permit here, as this is an above ground holding tank system.

    No problem. Now, the ideal way to do this would be to have the tanks/s sit on a trailer that is located at a lower elevation than the camper waste discharge. In this way, you could simply haul the trailer to the dump site when they get full. Other wise you will need to have the tanks pumped.

    Another thought. Is the camper going to be setting on the property in which he plans to build his home? If so, why waste money on a temp tank. Just have the septic or main sewer dug in first and foremost with a temp connection to it for camper. Going to need sewer system for the home anyway, and there is no reason it can't be done before the home is built as long as it is sized for the future home.
