What is a dump station?
A dump station is a small facility designed to protect public health and the environment by ensuring the proper disposal of wastewater from recreational vehicles e.g. motorhomes, campervans, and boats.
How can I install one?
The NZMCA offers financial assistance for the installation of public dump stations through the provision of a pre-cast concrete unit, which requires minimal work to assemble and install, and the appropriate signage to assist the public in locating the site. In return, we require the dump station to meet certain conditions outlined in the guide below.
This Dump Station Information Guide provides information on installation, building specifications, and financial assistance.
If you do not meet the requirements for financial assistance (e.g. user pays), you are welcome to purchase the units and signs.
How do I use a dump station?
For instructions on how to use a dump station, please refer the NZMCA's Dump Station User Guide. This guide provides step by step instructions, complete with photographs for ease of understanding. The photographs have been kindly provided by NZMCA members - Shirley and Don Pooley #20734.
Please contact the Resource Management Coordinator at the National Office for any further information.
