Regular or RV toilet paper?

I tried searching the forums for tissue but was rather confused. Full timers please help.
Thanks

  • Since traveling in Mexico a number of years ago, we learned that a number of residents there use tp and dispose of it in some type of waste can due to small sewer piping.

    Having said that, we do the same in fiver....never had problems, then again we have a tornado sprayer inside black holding tank. This attachment was one of the best DIY's I've ever done one it.
  • I'm not a full timer, but the answer is really simple: Anything you want!

    You're going to pay more for anything with an RV label on it, and more than likely, any house hold item of the same product will probably work better and be cheaper!

    Any toilet paper that can be put into a septic tank will work. Fact it ... once you flush your black tanks, it goes into someone else's tank (in the ground). That tank in your camper is now cleaned out, and ... you're done.

    The tanks in your camper are not septic-tanks. They are temporary holding tanks. Anything you put in, will be flushed out. You're done!

    The bottom line is, every type of toilet tissue is designed to go ... well .... down the drain and eventually, either to a sewage treatment plant, or through a septic tank system. So in all reality ... it really does not matter what brand you use. Use whatever you use in your home and save your money.
