And if you somehow disagree with flushing it down if it is brown, I suppose I would like to hear about that as well.

    If you have to throw your toilet paper in the trash instead of flushing it in order to not have issues then yeah, you’re not emptying it often enough.

    But hey, you do you and you deal with the issues, I mean, what’s a new septic system when you can save the equivalent of 100$ a year, right?

      We don’t put tp in the trash at our family home and have no problems.
      The rental unit has to because of the smaller tank (it has a ~900gal one or something) and it normally gets emptied on a 3 year cycle- as it had been for about 10 years without issue before this tenant moved in and problems arose because of their copious TP usage.

      Thanks for the advice though 👍
