I do not empty the tank at night, I can see no real need to do it, in fact I fill the tank at the end of the working day so I am all set for the next days work. ;D

only empty it when the temperature drops below freezing just so no damage is caused

I do  ::) Thats only because I'm as weak as a f**t and have to pull my trailer up over the kerb every night.

When it has no water in, its easy.

Believe me John, no way would I empty mine if it wasn't for the kerb, or a frosty night, but I insulated my tank, for frosty nights, Don't know why I bothered ::)

I have to empty it down the drain, its 20,mtrs from my house. but there is never that much if any I have to dump.

If the grass area is dry I can drive up and get it onto the garden with no problems, so the water stays in the tank.

Just lately I have had no chance in getting on the grass with all this rain.

can you not leave it hitched on to the car overnight?  or is there no hitchlock?  A dolly/jockey wheel would help.

If I did that they would nick my car as well??
I even have to take my hose,pump,pole and battery off the trailer every night, its a pain in the a**e but safer that way.

It all cost to much to take a chance, when I have the lid built I have made my self a post to stick 2' into the ground, and I welded a tow ball to it, so I could lock the trailer to that.

My Trailer is fitted with a Jocky wheel, and back legs.

The only time I empty my tank is when I've been continuously WFP non-stop doing nothing but large premises and I've run out of water. It has happened occassionally but not very often thank goodness!
