You cant fix stupid, so the pigs (which are becoming very common) are stuffing it for everyone else.
This is happening across society on all levels.

Yeah, good discussion guys.
Seems us camper/trailer users will be the targets of the rangers and most likely be asked to move on.
I always dig a deep hole and bury everything after the deed.
When bush camping me and the missus have a basic bucket wash because we don't carry a shower. The waste water simply gets tipped at the base of the nearest tree...that can't be bad surely?
I guess we will just search for sites that are more remote, and avoid the areas where there's already caravans set up.
I agree , it's the filthy grubs who are creating this problem, they obviously are not aware of anyone else out there.

I’m just getting one of those stickers printed up and chucking it on the camper.
Then it’ll be up to the rangers to prove that I’m not self contained...

Just wanted to say thanks to all the members of the old and slow motorhome club for designing a really easy to copy sticker.... :cheers:

Pete, maybe a myswag logo in the corner and a statement "all p#ss is self contained in the fridge"
Empties will be responsibly disposed of at a cash back collection centre.

I read their technical definition and we all pretty much meet it. Self contained stickers for everyone!

Fresh water tank.... Jerry cans = Check.
Black water tank.... Portapotty = Check.
Grey water tank..... Swap the bucket under the sink for a 10l Jerry = Check.



Who showers when out bush anyway.... ;D :P

I actually think it's part of the plan for the CMCA grey nomads to ge to stay in caravan parks for less - ie we dont need your water or amenities, as we have it all with us already. They've been wanting to do this for a while, its just they've now worked out a way (and combined it with a hollier than thou attittude to free camping)
