Relieving oneself is a need that comes naturally. Therefore, it’s important to address this need when hosting large gatherings or events. Installing a permanent toilet is usually difficult or very costly. A mobile restroom includes one or more portable toilet units. Portable restrooms are commonly used at events, construction sites, outdoor gatherings, and concerts. They are convenient for situations where building a permanent toilet is impractical.
Movable bathrooms come in different sizes and shapes which offer various amenities. Let’s explore some different kinds of portable toilets.
Standard porta potties – The most common type of portable restroom. Usually, they are single units arranged in clusters for outdoor use. They are the simplest form of portable toilet. They neither have a toilet nor flush. They feature a simple yet secure locking mechanism. These are best for short events because of their small tank capacity, typically 50-70 gallons. These traveling potties are available in the size of 43-46 by 46-48 by 88-91 inches. They are mostly used in construction sites and industrial areas.
Deluxe porta potties – Essentially, these are standard portable restrooms with an added sink. These are enhanced versions of standard porta potties, offering greater comfort. These units feature a sink and a tank that can hold 60-70 gallons.
In addition to being flushable, these porta potties include a hand washing station, mirror, and side urinal. Others even come with a baby changing station. These are perfect for events requiring high sanitation and hand washing, such as food tastings and family events with children.
Construction porta potties – As indicated by the name, these are standard portable toilets used in construction or industrial settings. They come with steel side rails where a crane can lift them from one floor of a construction site to another. They are suitable for construction sites with more than one floor of the building.
Trail mounted porta potties – Standard portable restrooms mounted on a trailer. They come equipped with brake lights and tires for easy towing. They can be safely parked anywhere for use. These porta potties are perfect for mobile worksites including highway construction, field media, and disaster response.
Portable restrooms – These are often called luxury or VIP portable restrooms. They are designed like large trailers. These portable restrooms include flushing toilets, running water, counter space, and modern amenities like lighting. They come with as many as ten bathrooms per trailer.
Handicap-accessible porta potties – Specially built for wheelchair access and people with disabilities. They are wider than standard moveable bathrooms and generally more spacious. They have a flat entrance or a ramp at the entrance to facilitate entering and leaving for those using a wheelchair. These units also come with safety handrails for safe use, a lower toilet seat, and anti-slip carpet material to avoid skidding. These units comply with ADA regulations.
Green porta potties – These are units designed for environment lovers. These units are made from recycled materials, promoting environmental friendliness. They are designed with health-conscious features and environmentally friendly procedures. Their features are comparable to the other types mentioned.
Which events benefit from using a porta potty?
Concerts – Concerts bring together a lot of people, mainly in large grounds. Permanent bathrooms alone are often insufficient for concerts. To ensure a successful concert, you should rent several porta potties for the duration of the event.
Events – Adequate portable restrooms are crucial for guest comfort at any event. For instance, if you have a graduation party where you will be hosting a number of guests, our backyard portable toilets are the most ideal. The event type influences which portable toilet to rent. For weddings, a luxury porta potty is more suitable than a standard one. You need to ensure your guests are getting the best services.
Festivals – These events attract a diverse crowd. You need to provide some traveling potties to ensure the attendees have somewhere to go after a couple of meals or drinks.
Family reunions – Planning a Thanksgiving gathering with extended family?. The indoor permanent toilet may not be enough to cater for a large number of people. Hire a portable toilet that is flushable and includes a handwashing station, as meals will be served. Additionally, you can rent units with baby changing stations or those accessible for the physically handicapped. You need to ensure everyone’s needs are catered for when you are hiring a portable restroom.
Construction sites – Transportable potties are crucial for a commercial or residential construction site. They can be moved between floors, minimizing the distance workers need to travel. These units make the construction site more hygienic and increase the general productivity of the workers.
Parties – Any type of party, including birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, or office parties, needs portable restrooms. Guests need facilities to relieve themselves and wash their hands, and an indoor toilet may not suffice for a large group.
Cleveland, the second-largest city in Ohio, is also the 48th largest city in the United States. With a population of 1.7 million as of 2020, it is a populous city.
