Actually there's a dump point just around the corner too . Not that I particularly lIke filling fresh water from them ? From memory the fresh water and dump point is a few car lengths from each other in this case .
This is a free public dump point located in Commonage Road. Turn west off the Stuart Highway 1 kilometre south of the Bradshaw Drive/Gap Road roundabout onto Commonage Road. The dump point is on the left hand side of the road before the tip and near the Waste Transfer Station

Thanks for that Aus-Kiwi. We also dont fill from the dump point area - bacteria plus!!!!!!
I've often thought how strange it is that in campgrounds we brush our teeth from a tap just a metre or so from the toilets, then again we do it at home as well.
That's so interesting re Caltex. The information centre said any service station EXCEPT Caltex, maybe that's why (because it is a council tap!!!!!)
Cheers Jenny
Check WikiCamps ., The water supply above is away from dump point . From memory the other side of drive way . It's well used as it's used to fill tankers etc . Yes some people don't use personal hygiene very well . I use hand steriliser and gloves . Wash black water pipes with similar solution before storing . In sealed bag in seperate compartment so there's no way of contamination ! Infact I put in with spare engine oil etc . Opposite side to fresh water. I'm ok after the smell has gone . It seems to cling to you for some reason ? Lol
As far as I know, all mains tap water in reasonable sized towns is drinkable as far as your health goes. Most times. Did get Hep A at Moree about 20 years ago but it was a case of not reading all the signs in town that the local water supply had been contaminated by dead stock as a result of fires in the catchment areas. If I'd boiled it first I'd have been OK. Taste is a different story. Have a slab of ALDI/Coles/BigW bottles on board just in case.
