OMG! I'm not in charge. But we flushed with water, pine-sol, more water, more water, more water till it was clean and not a speck of anything came out. Used a whole big bottle of pine-sol. Flushed till even the bubbles were gone.

After a few weeks/months of using it with the valve open, you will find out!  Leaves a mound of debris that will be a chore to remove.
You may even get a plugged toilet.

I guess I have been lucky over the years and just use alot of water and the normal tank treatments and have never had an issue or a smell.
I always wonder the reasoning behind not using the shower, stool, sinks etc in the units. It may be me but I truly enjoy my clean toilet and my shower when I awake each morning. It brings back memories of a gentleman we met in a campground that we were seasonal in a few years ago. I would notice after each meal he carried his dishes to the shower house and washed them in the sink. I had a few days off and wanting to be help out I inquired if I could get his water working for him,,,,he looks at me like I am crazy,,,and said I will have you know my sinks, shower and toilet has never been used and never will be so that when I go to sell this unit I am going to get top dollar for it. Long story short about 3 weeks later a tree fell totally crushing his trailer, thank the lord he was ok. It was totalled and he had no insurance, I felt bad but I had to ask him how much those new fixtures were worth lol. We all rallied around him and helped him with a park fund raiser to get another unit. He thanked me for opening his eyes to as he put it "a crazy way of thinking" and I never saw him carrying dirty dishes or going to the shower room again.

Amen to that! Hate having to use campground facilities. That's why we bought our first camping trailer 38 yrs ago.

I could never figure out why somebody wouldn't use a perfectly good bathroom in their trailer. You can sing in the shower and it's all private.

I've always used mine to 2, or what my son used to call 2 2, two two.
