I set up a corpse stockpile next to my dump zone (a hole in the ground into the caverns, where I installed a drawbridge for atom-smashing). I linked the stockpile to a minecart, so dwarves will bring stuff there and auto-load the cart, which auto-dumps everything into the hole. As long as what you're dumping can be transported to the stockpile in a wheelbarrow, that would work.

I also put a dump zone on the hole so the dwarves will dump things designated the traditional way in addition to the set-and-forget stockpile for corpses.
