You neglected to include the script. You're not talking about this one, are you?

The usual methodology is to have an occasional check to see whether the last slot(s) of the turtle contain items (using turtle.getItemCount()). If so, you'd have it return to base, ensure it's facing the chest you've left there (typically you'd place that behind the turtle's starting location), then loop through all slots calling turtle.drop() as it goes.

I recommend you plop a turtle down in front of a chest, manually fill its inventory, then produce a script that'll dump off everything its carrying. Once you've done that, you can add that new script as a function to the script you wish to modify.
