Beginners Guide to RVing

There is one thing that all RVers need, and that's a dump station. A dump station, if you don't already know, is a place where you can empty your RV's holding tanks.

Once upon a time, dump stations were more plentiful than today. Many highway rest areas were favorite dumping places, and the price was right: free.

Alas, some RVers began doing bad things to these freebie facilities, like stuffing down diapers and disposing of motor oil and whatever else they felt needed to be deep-sixed. This was very bad news — and costly — for the folks who maintained the dump stations.

States, counties and cities that sponsored the facilities as a public service decided that there were better ways to spend their taxpayers' money than provide a costly service to people who didn't respect it. So they pumped out many of their dump stations one last time, paved them over, and that was that.

These days, dump stations are still out there, but it's a bit trickier finding one. And that's where this ebook comes in. It provides a comprehensive listing by state and by highway of most of the known public dump stations in America. The directory specifies the exact highway exit where a dump station is located, and what sort of facility sponsors it. Common places are rest areas, welcome centers, truck stops, gas stations, RV parks and public campgrounds.

RVers who travel a lot will find this 43-page ebook, readable in PDF format with the Adobe Reader (available free at Adobe.com), an essential guide that will save them a lot of time and even the expense of paying to dump when a free location may be nearby.

You can order "RVer's Guide to Dump Stations" for a modest $7.95. The book contains no big photo files so it downloads quickly, even on a dial up connection. If you order now, you can be reading or printing this handy guide in a matter of a few minutes. ORDER NOW
