GPS & Dump Points

Can anyone help me, I have a Garmin RV775 gps and would like to know if it is possible to have it bring up dump points.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

It gives a long list but many are in private caravan parks and not available to (or charge) the public. Also I looked up a few at random which I have used and they were not shown.

As Bob says; get WikiCamps.

The National Public Toilet Map app has filters which allow you to just select dump points if you wish. Available free on iOS & Android.

Welcome to GN's Netscrounger, The Wikicamps app is probably the best source for locating dump-points, as well as other useful travelling/camping information.

Spend a huge $8 for Wikicamps App, and easily find just about every dump point in Australia and there is no need to ever pay for use either
