Free Caravan Dump Point
Appropriate waste disposal is an important part of caravanning.
An unpleasant part of going on a road trip in a caravan is having to regularly empty your waste into a public dump point station.
Rockhampton Regional Council provides a free caravan waste dump point and potable water refill on Nuttall St, Parkhurst QLD 4702.
The free caravan waste dump point is located in Nuttal Street, Parkhurst.
Potable water is water that is intended for use as drinking water. It can also be used for other domestic purposes including cooking, washing up, bathing and showering.
Rockhampton Regional Council's free dump point offers a place for caravan users to dispose of their grey and black water, as well as sewage waste.
It is the most environmentally friendly method of emptying waste from your caravan.
The dump point is available for use 24/7.
Our Dump Point can be found in front of the white besser block building.
A non-potable water tap is available for washing down your caravan at the dump point
Non-potable water is not suitable for drinking, but rather for hosing down your caravan after your waste disposal.
