"Septic safe" is irrelevant. Requirement to break up after 10 seconds in a jar filled with water is also irrelevant. If it will flush down the toilet without having to poke it down with the toilet brush, then it will come out the other end of the tank when you dump.
Just ditch the baby wipes as they are bad news all-round

We bought our first travel trailer in 1968. We have never bought "special" paper in all this time. 10 campers. Never had a problem. I can't believe we have just been lucky.

TP test
There was an article posted some time ago that reported the results of a TP test to see which brand broke up better. Charmin was rated the best and it is actually a little thicker so you don't have to use as much.

THis is a very common topic.
As noted in the last reply, There have been several tests.
Scotts single ply is a good one for fast breakup
So in Angle Soft but I have my reasons for not buying that brand (Which will nto be posted by the way,, Personal reasons)
Quilted Charman was about the worst (longest to break up) but even Charmain by the time I get pulled up, Zipped up. Out and open the valve....
What do I use.. Prince and Spring from boxed.com.
Boxed is either P&S sales dept or P&S is Boxed's house brand but they are kind of like a mini-Sam's Club that delivers.
YOu get like 48 rolls of very nice TP for a very reasonable price Just like shopping at sam's c lub. but when I was broked down in Georgia it was a 100 mile HIKE to Sam's club and about 100 yards to where UPS dropped the BOXED box.

Agree on Costco paper. And the reason for septic safe is not the RV tank, it is the many CG septic systems we all are dumping into. Not even going to comment on the no paper camp.

What about all the potent odour killers and bactericides people use in their tanks to prevent their delicate noses from being upset. Where does "septic safe" figure in that reality

I used Scotts one ply for a long time and then tested Cottonelle Ultra Comfort care, https://www.cottonelle.com/products/...e-toilet-paper. It breaks down in less than 24 hours like Scotts but is softer and 2 ply. Costco and Walmart have best prices.

Yep. As long as I don't get the dreaded finger poke.

We use Georgia Pacific Preference brand. Hotels typically buy this commercial-grade paper because it breaks down very quickly. We have tree root issues at the S&B so I acquired a case of this from Amazon. By the time it gets to the problem area it's already dissolved. We now use it in the motorhome too.

My history with hotel TP is that it's close to sandpaper on a roll

So far our trailer black tank has only had urine or water in it. My wife uses a stainless flip lid container for the toilet paper and we take a walk to use outside facilities for more serious business. We were able to go 8 days off grid at an astronomy event in a national forest by minimizing the use of our black tank.
Eventually we will have circumstances where we use our black tank more but we will continue to put the TP in a dedicated trash to keep it out of the tank.
