I am using dishwasher detergent and water to soak my filters and now I am wondering how I dispose of 25 gallons of the dishwashing detergent cleaning water after the filters have finished soaking. Any suggestions?
 
Does your area have storm drains? That would be my first choice.

If in the country, some area that would be considered open field. It should not dramatically harm anything. Wash down the area with fresh water.

Good luck.
 
It was too heavy to move to the storm drain so, it occurred to me while I was finishing up, to drop the pool cover pump into the bin. So I ran the hose from the pool cover pump to the non-grassy area under the playset. Didn't have to move the heavy bin of water and it emptied completely in less than five minutes!
