Best Travel Toilet Paper: Key Considerations
Portability:
Travel toilet paper should fit easily in your bag without weighing you down. It needs to be compact and lightweight. Our rolls in the guide are small, easy to toss in a backpack or pocket. Wipes and sheets are tiny, compressed and perfect to walk around in your pocket until you need them. Double check your travel suitcase for space and consider your travel duration. A bulkier roll is perfect for hotels or car camping, but ultralight backpackers will prefer wipes.
Durability:
Toilet paper needs to hold up, no matter how heavy the flow. Single Ply is tougher, feels more rough, but less prone to tearing. Great for use where durability is more important than comfort. Two-Ply feels more like toilet paper. It may shred or be weak under water or over-handled.. Durability matters more if it’s in tough conditions outdoors. Think comfort for longer trips, or if nearby civiliazation. Test a sample before you go on your trip.
Biodegradability and Environmental Impact
If you’re going to use toilet paper outside, it needs to be biodegradable so it can wash off naturally in rain. All our options are 100% biodegradable and will dissolve naturally in weeks when buried or in a night of rain. Avoid scent-free TP- except for the dude wipes. They are usually added with some chemicals to slow down decomposition. Beware of flushable claims. Cottonelle’s wipes are flushable (not in this guide), but they take longer to break down. Stick to true biodegradable options in this guide.
Discoverability: Septic and Plumbing
A clog in the pipes while RV camping, or at a site with weak flow plumbing, could ruin your entire trip. All our toilet papers are quick to dissolve, and will break apart in water within minutes. Dude Wipes dissolve fully when wet, doubling as a no clog option for RVs. If you’re unsure, drop a sheet in water and see how fast it dissolves. Slow dissolve paper will be a nightmare on a boat or RV.
Quantity:
Running out halfway in a trip is a rookie mistake. Find out how much you need based on your travel style and group size. Prepare 100 sheets per person per day, just to be sure. It never hurts to bring as much as you can as well- they are so lightweight that it won’t add much to your gear. Better to have too much than too little.
Packaging and Accessibility
How they are packed affects how easy it is to carry and use. Dude wipes are resealable, which keeps them moist and waterproof. Portawipes are singly wrapped- great for just grabbing one without exposing the rest to rain or heat. Coreless rolls like Coghlans cut bulk but make them more vulernable to dirt.
Versatility:
Some travel wipes offer more than just TP use. Wet wipes can also clean hands or gear. Dry rolls like Coleman’s can ignite a campfire in a pitch, although wet wipes won’t.
What to look for In Toilet Paper
First, look for a compact and lightweight product that won’t take up much space in your backpack or purse. Consider the trip you’re taking, a small package that fits easily in a package is designed for travel.
Think of the price and whether it’s worth the extra cost. Some travel toilet paper may be more expensive than the regular sheet you have at home, but they offer additional benefits such as biodegradability or being unscented (good for anti-bugs). These may be helpful if you have sensitive skin or are just mindful of the environment. The right travel toilet paper should balance the environment, cost, and intent to meet your specific needs.
Types of Travel Toilet Paper
There are several types of travel toilet paper on the market. Some of the popular options include compressed toilet paper tablets, which are designed to be extremely compact and lightweight. They can be easily packed into a small purse – but they will need a small tab of water on them to be used in emergencies.
Another option is travel-sized rolls of toilet paper, which are designed to be smaller for compact storage and portability. Some offer scented and unscented options, but all are biodegradable and safe for RV or boating usage.
Benefits of Using Travel Toilet Paper
The biggest benefit of using travel toilet paper is that it’ll save your butt in an emergency, such as hiking or backpacking, and you don’t have access to any toilet paper. It’s convenient to carry because it’s so compact and lightweight for travel. They’re designed to be skin irritant-free, which makes them a great option for travelers wary of rough toilet paper in a foreign country.
Because they’re biodegradable, they reduce waste and are good for the planet.
Tips and Tricks:
- Store the rolls in a ziplock bag for waterproof protection. Don’t let a rainy day ruin your washroom trip!
- Choose unscented if you’re out hiking or camping to prevent bugs or flies.
- Pick the toilet paper roll depending on where you are traveling. For RVs and boats, the 1-PLY is the superior option because there is no chance of clogging up your septic tank. And you won’t be able to call a plumber when you need one. For outdoors, 2-PLY is better because it will have a better feel as it’s more plush, and you can dispose of it in the wild.
- Depending on how long you’ll be away from civilization, it might be wise to pack enough. A week-long hike will require at least 70 rolls. Plan your tissue usage before you go on your trips so you have enough for your personal needs.
- Test your toilet paper on a short trip or in the comfort of your own home.
