OK, As most of you know, during Happy Hour, most everything is discussed. The latest being, what brand of toilet paper are you using to avoid the possible of clogging up the back holding tank. Lots of brands mentioned with all good results. Then, this one guy states that they have eliminated the toilet paper issue by disposing it in a diaper pail. This brought several questions, mainly the odor issue. He stated that with the new modern diaper pails that there was none. Do you use a diaper pail or know of anyone that does? We do a lot of dry camping and it looks like it would be a good way to conserve water.

No thanks, I will continue with my RV approved toilet paper and be quite happy using a little extra water in the black tank.

If I worried about TP in my black tank, I'd quit camping altogether....... Unbelievable!

Say WHAT???? Anything that is "Septic Safe" is fine. We've never had a problem putting it in the toilet. Toilet paper that disintegrates in water isn't nearly as big a problem as some of the other solid waste that goes in the toilet...On the other hand, in many other countries (much of Europe, South America, etc.), it is common practice not to put toilet paper in the toilet... in the homes and apartments. I don't know if it has something to do with the waste water processing plants or what.Rob

I would suggest if you're going to put the used TP in a diaper pail why not adapt a comfortable seat to it and pinch the loaf directly in there also?

Sure would save you a lot of work and time connecting a hose, pulling a valve handle, so on and so forth.

A store bought solution! :B

If the owner of an RV tells me that I have to put my USED toilet paper in a bucket inside his RV instead of flushing it?

I will NOT even go inside any RV that has a bucket with used toilet paper in it sitting there, period.

We have toilets for a reason in our RV's, so FLUSH those used filthy pieces of toilet paper down the toilet where it's meant to go!

I think my trailer solves the problem. No bathroom. I only use the campground facilities and therefore, no problems. Glad I don't have to make these decisions!!

but your setup is perfect for the use of a diaper pail. just sit at your dinette, the rest of the steps you will have to improvise.

Am I wrong in insisting that my RV must have a separate private toilet cubicle, with a ceiling deluxe Fantastic fan PLUS a window plus a lavatory plus 2 cabinets PLUS a supply of Charmin toilet paper (which BTW breaks up into little pieces when in water)...?
My point is that what works for me is what works for ME. We are all free to go our individual way (pun intended).

if it is your RV I certainly would insist on these features.
