Personally, I think it's silly to not use the motorhome waste facilities as they were intended (#1 and #2). I can't understand why it would be against the rules to take a poop in a tour bus biffy. Maybe as a courtesy to the driver or whomever is tasked with dump duties, but I can see no other reason.

That said, it absolutely makes sense to be careful what you flush. Human waste and suitable TP should be the only things to go down the toilet. You are asking for trouble if you flush dental floss, feminine hygiene products, wet wipes, paper towels, etc down the toilet.

We recently got a free package of Thetford TP from CW, but absent of that, we use Scott single ply, which is available at most grocery stores. I also use a RV supply product called "Pure Power" in the tank, IF it will not be dumped on a daily basis. It is an enzyme product and you only need 2 oz for 40 gallons of tank capacity.
