What many do and I've done is when leaving the park, I dump and flush with water. Then add a packet of treatment, a gallon or two and a big bag of ice, the drive home will "slosh" around the mixture and the ice cubes will "scrub" the tank then it melts and then you are good to go for the next outing.

I also run with some water in the bowel to keep seal wet and from drying out.

Best of luck with the new camper! Make sure you tell the wife and kids to use the toilet paper sparingly! My wife and kids had no idea there was really a difference between the rv's toilet and the one in the house. When we first started camping I believe we were on our 3rd trip of the season and I spent 5 1/2 hours on the morning we were suppose to leave the campground trying to unclog the black tank. I had no idea there was rv safe toilet paper?? And i didn't pay any attention to how much the wife and kids were using! Take it from me, get rv safe TP and tell them to conserve on how much they use. Now get out there start camping and make some memories!
Here is a video on the difference between rv safe TP and regular TP

Good point about sparingly using the TP.
