Blue tote has a sewer hose that attaches from the dump pipe on the trailer to the blue tote. Once full, you roll the tote to the dump station, take the lid off and dump down the hole. You could use the hose for dumping, but with gray water, and if the dump station has a "pit" around the hole, I just directly dump it and rinse the area well with the non-potable water source at the dump.

I also notice you mentioned Solar. Portable panels are fine, but expensive and not very capable. I would suggest to at least consider a full size panel. I bought a 200 watt starter kit from Renogy. I wired up the charge controller to live in the camper and use the two 100 watt panels as portable panels. I just put them in the sun and hook up the cables to the 'solar on the side" plug that I re-wired to go the charge controller. I got 2 Trojan T-105 batteries and between those and the solar, I am full every day (we don't have an inverter) with fridge on propane, water pump and lights when we want them and the occasional portable inverter to watch a movie. You have to have the room to store a full panel though (not an issue for me).

Another tip on conserving grey tank space is wash/rinse dishes in a dish pan and dump that water down the toilet. The black will never get filled using it only as intended from the toilet.
