When my wife and I bought our travel trailer, she made one thing crystal clear: she would never dump the black tank. As long as I handled the "poo slinky" duties, she was on board with RV life. At first, I wasn’t thrilled about managing the tank flush and dumping process. But after some practice, it became just another part of the adventure. Recently, I discovered a new option shaking things up—Matt’s Liquidfied tank treatment. 

In this episode, Matt himself joins us to share his expert advice on black tank maintenance, tips for avoiding common mistakes, and insider tricks for a stink-free RV experience. But we don’t just talk tanks—Matt also shares stories from his favorite camping destinations and reveals something exclusive that he hasn’t told anyone else. Don’t miss this exciting interview and get ready to rethink your black tank routine.
