How to Unclog your RV Toilet

So, you’ve got a clogged toilet. What now? Well, unfortunately it’s not as easy as taking a plunger to it. RVs and trailers are built a bit differently than your traditional toilet, so a plunger can actually damage your black tank, which is what holds all your sewage.

Fortunately, I’ve gone through the worst, so you don’t have to. I tried everything from jamming it with PVC pipe, dunking dissolvent down the drains…I even got so desperate that once I tried to pull the sewage out the bottom via a long flexible barbed rod — highly don’t recommend.

Turns out, all you need are two simple yet effective tools.

- Camco Magic Wand

- Rhino blaster.

Here’s my 9-step process to unclogging your RV, guaranteed.

1. Shut off your water and hook up a spare hose — one that you don’t use for regular water supply.
2. Attach a Magic Wand
3. Open black water tank
4. Insert magic wand into toilet (make sure water supply is shut off to RV).
5. Put on gloves and if possible, face protection — trust me.
6. Turn on water and spray inside of toilet with magic wand. Continue to do so until all toilet paper and sewage breaks up/dissolves.
7. Shut off magic wand and turn off water supply.
8. Attach Rhino Blaster to external end of black tank. Connect hose to rhino blaster.
9. Turn on water & let the rhino blaster do its job. It’ll blast a stream of water through the bottom of your black tank, dissolving any remaining sewage, allowing it to drain. Can also be used for cleaning your black and gray tank.
