Been using non rv tp for years, itā€™s BS, especially if your rig has the hose hook up to clean the black tank. We Also use wet wipes as well. Never any issues. Weā€™ve been in ours for a month now, my ass would be raw by now if I used that rv crap paper.

Kirkland TP goes a long way! Just add some Blue to go with it.

X2 We have always used normal toilet paper along with wet wipes and have never had any issues.

I am pretty spoiled now with wet wipes thatā€™s thatā€™s all I use!

I try not to shit where I sleep one of my duces could clear the trailer like the next Fukushima meltdown

where would you shit if you are in the middle of nowhere? Do you bring a shovel? Lol half the reason I bought my motorhome was because it had a decent shit station

We typically stay at parks and ii use their facilities. Wife and kid use the trailer all the time. Buy judging by the size of the Hole I'd be worried mine would be like

You should see a DR ASAP.

3ā€ wide turds? You either have a severe medical condition or you have been to prison and bunked with this guy.

Its not a septic tank. You clear it out. I dont worry about it but I have the tank cleanout spigot and use it before heading out somewhere to dry camp.

the other thing to do is to fill the blank tank to 25% capacity prior to traveling. Add some powdered detergent along with an equal amount of booster. That cleans your tank very well while underway.

people just dont normally do simple things for upkeep

Ive heard a lot of people say they put 10 gallons of water and 20 lbs of ice in the tank when empty before traveling to clean the tank. Sounds like it could work well.

Also dump any remaining ice down the shitter the moment you leave for the drive home to really break things up for easier clean out.

This also works to clean any toilet paper/etc off your sensors

I drain before leaving camp site, then 2 bags of ice before I leave the house for next trip. Usually shows empty when I get to site. Also add water before I drain at site to get good strong flow. Havenā€™t done any boondocking

Always make sure you leave some water and tank treatment in both tanks when storing, this will keep them from stinking. I always thought this was common knowledge, but I know several that didnā€™t do it and couldnā€™t understand why their empty tanks smell.
