As dumping your holding tank at Walmart was not on the list https://www.escapees.com/Parking/Docs/b ... letter.pdf I guess this camper thought it OK. Lets hope it was at least only the gray water. As the saying goes "it only takes one bad apple to spoil the barrel".

When we had an RV w/slides we always parked where we could put the slide out over the grass. Other than that we kept a low profile, no lawn chairs, awnings, etc.

I can't tell what is going on in the photo. If that is supposed to be a hose going toward the curb, it's on the wrong side of the RV.

Might be a ramp going off the right side?

I have seen ramps like that for RV'ers with dogs that have bad hips and can't climb up and down the steps.

The photo may be reversed. The photo is so indistinct there is no way to tell if it is a sewer hose, a ramp, or something else. And how do we know where the photo was taken?

Looking back I can understand why the picture is confusing as I had the same thoughts regarding why a dump would be on the curb side. I took the picture with my cell phone out of the rear window of our coach and can only say that it was some sort of round tube the size of a dump hose not a ramp, and was in a Walmart parking lot in Colorado.

Dumping at WalMart

OMG, that is really rude... Looks like they are dumping shower water? Probably think they are being all Eco conscious to put it on the grass.
It's astounding what some RVers consider ok to do. I was walking my dogs at a remote rest area and came across a giant cow patty that had to have been from a black tank. Yuk.
And sometimes I see people with those blue honey bucket things under their rig at a Walmart. Really? Are they then going to roll it into the store and dump it?
