On our previous fifth wheel, we stored our sewer hose inside the rear bumper which kept it away from the other items that we had. When we bought our new Reflection RV by Grand Design, I noticed that it does not have a rear bumper. The storage compartment is kinda small and I'm not fond of storing the sewer hose along with our other items. I was wondering what other folks do who don't have a rear bumper, where do you store your sewer hose?

Mount a PVC tube, underneath, with screw on caps.

I got a sewer tube at CW and mounted underneath. I wish I had read the forum first. The cheaper options are either a pvc pipe with screw on caps or a 4” pvc fence post with caps. Much cheaper and works the same!

Here is what I did for mine. I made three of them. One for myself, and one for each my two sons who also have RV's.
Got all the supplies at Lowe's
The far end of the trough is open so it can be used as a hose support if needed.

I just bought a 2021 Grand Design Reflection 311BHS. It has a hitch receiver and no bumper. It came with a sewer hose tube already attached underneath just about at the mid point near the sewer discharge tube. Are you sure yours doesn't have one?

Beautiful work man! I did similar but not near as elaborate. One of my favorite mods.

My issue is that the storage tubes only hold one section of hose. The sites that we typically get require 15' to 20' of hose. I can store one in the factory tube but the other becomes a PITA.

I had seen similar, but appears you hold the cap on same as I do, except I just drilled a small hole thru that bolt ,and put a clip thru it.
