Dumping a body refers to using the dump body action to move dead bodies outside a building.

This in-game action is available to survivors inside a building (excluding unlit, dark buildings) when any number of dead bodies are present. A button labeled Dump Body will appear. Clicking it will dump one of the bodies outside the building regardless of the current level of barricades. It will earn the survivor 1 XP, and costs 1 AP. Any survivor regardless of which skills they have can dump a body. It is a safe way for lower level characters or those without supplies can earn XP and contribute to the defense of a safehouse.

In forts, dumping a body costs 5 AP and moves the survivor character inside the gatehouse (if they were not already there).

During real time combat, zombies that have broken into a building that come under attack should avoid getting dumped. If they die, they should stand up as fast as possible. This allows them to contribute to the interference factor and prevents barricades from being rebuilt. They can then also continue attacking. Some zombies make use of the ?rise command to ensure they stand up as fast as possible, and this is generally effective. Survivors can make use of the equivalent ?dump command, but this is only effective when other active survivors are getting kills.

Prior to late 2006, multiple bodies were able to be dumped for a single AP.
