Riverdale Farm Campsite operates their dump station during regular business hours, so call ahead to confirm availability rather than arriving unannounced. They typically accommodate day-use dumping for a reasonable fee, but weekend availability can get tight during peak camping season.

Fuel up before hitting rural Connecticut roads, as gas stations become sparse between towns. The Shell station on Route 80 provides convenient RV access with room to maneuver larger rigs. For propane, you'll need to head toward Middletown or the Route 9 corridor where larger travel centers operate.

Bring your own dump hose since some facilities only provide basic connections. Rubber gloves and hand sanitizer prove essential, especially at busier locations. The local water company maintains good pressure, so topping off fresh tanks works well here. Plan dump station visits for weekday mornings when possible to avoid weekend camper traffic at the single available location.
