It is the heaviness of the drums and off site disposal that I particularly don't like. The bags are relatively easy-just throw them in the back of a pick up truck.

You can also use staged drums which are attached with pipes and only the water runs off to the next drum. The first drum collects most of the slurry, the second a lot less and the third even less. Them you just have to dispose of the drums and they will be heavy.

We did an 8000 sqft concrete grind job and the process shown on this video is  exactly how we got rid of the slurry. Gel max works great.

I copied this article below.-removing slurry is an  service to be billed for.
You can use pillow cases ,cotton sheets ,filter material to strain off the mud.
You can also call a waste service like clean earth and they will sign off on the slurry.
It will cost but you bill back to the customer with a premium for your time.


"The use of woven or nonwoven filter material may also be used to line holding containers. This will allow for the majority of particulate to be contained and allow the water to filter through by means of gravitation. The clear water by any means can be recycled and used in your operation or disposed of on the ground or in a sanitary sewer drain. The particulate will then have to be disposed of separately. Gravitational methods leave the slurry very wet, like drywall mud. If left over time it will continue to dry out. The use of a product that will solidify the slurry can be used to turn it into a gelatin-like material for easy transportation and disposal.

If the slurry is considered hazardous only because it has a high pH, the slurry can be treated with an acid-based solution to bring it within acceptable levels. If the slurry is considered hazardous for other reasons, the particulate and water must all be disposed of so that it does not affect the environment. This may require the use of totally enclosed poly tanks or vacuum boxes, sealable 55-gallon drums or large lined dumpster filled a portion of the way to allow for transportation and removed off sight. Vacuum truck services may also be used to vacuum hazardous slurry out of holding containers and remove it from the site. Slurry solidification products are another option that can be used to absorb the water within the slurry turning it into a gelatin material that will pass EPA required testing to allow for its disposal in a regular landfill."

What about gel max and bagging up. Major pain. Also,We have a vac on a 55 gal drum and a couple 20 gal wet dry vacs we use if we need to take slurry with us.
