Free self contained stopover Pinjarra WA.

Well there might be one M :-o)..... as I recall, there is one quite close to the road at the rear of the visitor info centre in Narrogin - and the nice lady at the counter even invited us to park overnight right by that info centre (more appropriate for motorhomes with gray water tanks I'd say. As it turned out, we moved about 2 km away to the old railway dam site - excellent.

Hi Darian

There probably are a few around the state, as Camps 5 is only up to date when the info was gathered, and only up to the sources they use to provide that info. When travelling in the eastern states it was the best reference we had when planning where to next seek a dump point.

Main Roads are providing them at a few selected 24 hour rest ares in the Pilbara, which is a sensible move.

CMCA has nine SW, wheat belt and mid west towns RV friendly accredited, including Pinjarra. One of the criteria is a public dump point. Some of these show it as being at caravan park, but they may well be a shire caravan parks anyway.

Another recollection surfaces from within the noggin - Esperance of all places doesn't have a public dump point - after 3 days in a CP there, we went out to Lucky Bay for 3 nights - on cruising back through Esperance, the visitor info centre told us we'd have to pay $15 at one of the CP's ! Oh yeah - sure.

Just to give my home town a plug, Albany has two public dump points. Both of which are regularly used and I am sure, appreciated by the travelers passing through

Hi Cruznoz

Let everyone know where they are. Camps 5 has only six listed; all at caravan parks, and only one showing available for non guests - with fee applying. Also advise Camps Australia Wide. When we got back, i emailed them a list of variations including additional dump points we had observed.

Hi Darian

I think it is disgusting that Shires are unwilling to provide the basic facility of a dump point; something which should be compulsory in all towns. $15 is a bit steep for a traveller to use, but fair enough to charge from the point of view of the CP operator. We have heard of ES CPs charging the same as a one night camping fee.

Most Shires now provide public toilets in towns, and a dump point should be included. Some Shires even provide free hot showers at their toilet blocks. The Shire of Lake Grace does; we have seen showers at Newdegate and Dumbleyung, and have showered at Newdegate on a couple of occasions. Very welcome when coming in from the East.

One dump point is at the infomation bay as you come into town on the Albany hwy and the other is at a park/ rest area on the foreshore along Princess Royal drive. Both dump points have a water tap next to them and both are free.

Its the Premier Hotel

Premier,

I believe it's recently changed hands.

Hope the new owners still have Tuesday night lamb shanks and the mixed grill, fantastic.

...... getting hungry now......

The one I go to changed hands in November last year, so it may well be the PREMIER HOTEL !!

All staff have remained and a few building upgrades will be made to make it a bit more apealing, although I love it just as it is because I only go for the food.

Maîneÿ . . .

Yes Motherhen, I will make that commitment soon. I think I might use the login name of Nameless.Happy Days, Pauper.
