For me, about a week.
For me and my late wife, it was three to four days.
For me, my wife, my daughter, two granddaughters, it was at most two days. That was before the granddaughters got to the age of showering and changing clothes more than two times a day.
That is with 28-30 gallon waste tanks, yours are probably bigger. It is all about tank size vs how they are used.
I find that people have to be trained how to use a RV toilet if I hope to get any time before having to dump the black tank. You need enough liquid to carry the solid, but you don't need six gallons of water to wash away each half pint of urine the way old residential units worked.
