You can also buy something called a super plunger and that will give you a better shot at clearing the stoppage faster as this type of plunger creates more of a forceful push when used compared to the standard smaller cup plunger. The super plunger will have a plastic coil spring on the end of it to give the stoppage a better push of water compared to the regular style plunger. You can find super plunger at the same place you can buy regular plungers such as hardware stores, Home Depot and lowes. You can also find super plungers at most Plumbing supplies centers.
Additionally if the plunger does not work after attempting to clear the toilet stoppage, you can use something called a toiler auger which is a like a mini snake that will work its way through the toilet trap when you turn the handle. The toilet auger is used by many professional plumbers when they are called out to a stoppage that cannot be cleared with a plunger or super plunger. The nice part about the closet auger is that they do not need any electrical power to operate and will usually clear the toughest of stoppages inside of the toilet trap.
