Cassette empty at Eurotunnel Folkestone?

[Westbarn1]

I did hesitate about asking this question, but needs must, would prefer to empty my cassette before crossing to France tomorrow, does anyone know if there is an emptying point at the Eurotunnel complex?

 

[Lenny HB]

Don't think so, put it in a bag and take it in the toilet.

How about Google for the campsites local to the tunnel and then giving them a ring to see if they will let you empty your cassette under the circumstances.

Don't think so, put it in a bag and take it in the toilet.

And hum loudly when emptying the cassette into the toilet. People in adjacent cubicles might think you need medical attention when they hear the noise of emptying.

It’s more fun to scream very loudly. Then claim, Jesus Christ I needed that.

I suppose emptying the cassette under the circumstances is marginally better than emptying it behind the counter.
I’ll get my coat……….

Don't think that's what the Booking Staff at Eurotunnel had in mind when they asked for a deposit; or, indeed, what they contemplated when they asked you to log on ...

probably not the answer you want
we normally get of ferry or tunnel and nip straight into city de Europe and use the fuel station facilities there

Are you liable to fill it up since leaving home? Surely not, just make sure you go before leaving

 

[stevec]

I have emptied at a dedicated empty point right at the end of the car park. A few years ago now but there is a brick compound that I investigated and it had a tap for rinsing which was live. No idea if it’s still there and not used it since. Looking on google maps it’s at the north east corner of the car park just beyond where Motorhomes park up.

It's alright for a resident of Fareham to make this suggestion [ex Warsash resident myself]! But, for those of us who must drive 500 miles or so to the Ferry port, it's a long time to cross one's legs, and/or clench one's buttocks ... Only en route food allowed is cheese rolls, which can be a bit of a bind ...

Wait until you get to France then nip round to Cite Europe and use the dump at Carrefour fuel station.
Macron has been crappy to us so it’s only right that we give them some back.

 

[pjay]

I've used the emptying point several years back mentioned above, I think it was intended as a coach dump point, sorry, no idea if you can still use it.

Stop the night before at Canterbury.

 

[brynric]

As with Stevec and pjay, I seem to remember a dumping point for coaches at the far end of the coach Moho area. But it’s some years since I’ve looked it up.

There used to be a coach waste point up in the far back left corner of the Carpark when you drive past the main building.

 

[Manic]

The dump point at the back of eurotunnel is now dead, it was when I looked last year.

I concur, I checked it out too. :-(

Well I've pulled some stunts emptying my cassette Lenny, but I've never thought of that one

 

[Rob Turner]

The fuel station at Cité Europe, by the Renault garage.

Careful you don‘t have an involuntary cassette clearance of your own!

Not whilst standing in the station

Use canterbury park and ride if your in and out under 15 mins no charge

I was beginning to wonder if the bacon/sausage legislation applied to toilet cassette too

A former work colleague used to describe the daily bowel emptying as 'parking my breakfast', so what better place to empty the cassette than at a 'Park & Ride'? If you can 'Surf the Waves', you can 'Park & Ride' if you're brave enough,

I'm at the learning stage with the balance, sitting with my feet on the full cassette under the Dining Table until we can reach a Disposal Point ... But, my confidence will grow, as long as I remember to drive carefully through the S bends, mindful of there being no U bends ...

Thanks one and all, I’ll save it for the French Tesco near the tunnel now, so won’t be long
