This may sound a really silly question but were do you put waste water e.g. washing up water? Is it usually down the drain were you get the fresh water or chemical disposal? I ask because I had a static caravan owner tell me that I shouldnt put it down the drain. Then when I went to empty it in the chemical disposal area I couldnt lift it up to tip it away as it was so heavy. So was this man being territorial or should I be putting it in chemical disposal?

Please advise

I echo the above. Waste water can go in the Grey/waste water drain. Chemical disposal or Elsan disposal are for your loo. But I imaging that both end up in the same waste water mains/sewage.

Not all sites have mains sewerage, so may have a septic tank for the Elsan disposal. They would probably object to you pouring grey water down there as it will cost them in emptying!
