When you have a multi-day event that you need portable toilets for, you want to make sure the portable toilets look as nice as they did the first day they were delivered. Your guests are going to feel much more comfortable using the portable toilets if they are cleaned and well cared for.
Think Carefully About Where to Put the Toilets
First, you need to think carefully about where you put the toilets. You want to place the toilets on solid ground. Ideally, you will be able to place the toilets on a paved surface. If a paved surface is not available, a solid gravel surface, grass, or another area with packed, hard dirt will work.
You shouldn't place the toilets somewhere where the ground is soft, like on sand or really soft dirt. You also shouldn't place the toilets on a surface that is muddy or tends to get muddy when it rains.
Placing the toilets on a paved or compacted surface will cut down on the dirt that is tracked into the bathrooms when they are being used.
Order Enough Toilets for Your Event
Second, you need to make sure you order enough toilets for your event. Let the portable toilet rental company know how many days your event is, how many hours the event will run, and the number of people you expect. They will be able to use that information to provide you with a minimum recommended number of toilets you should rent for your event. Take their recommendation and rent at least the minimum. It is better to have more toilets than not enough.
When you don't have enough toilets, and everyone is rushed to use them, things tend to get messier than when you have more than enough toilets, and people can take their time using the restroom.
Also, make sure you have accessible toilets as well as toilets with baby changing tables. This will allow you to provide restrooms to everyone at your event in a safe and clean manner.
Have Bathroom Attendants
Finally, you are going to want to have bathroom attendants who are assigned to hang around the bathroom area. Their job will be to go into the bathrooms, sweep the floors, wipe down the surfaces, and resupply the bathrooms with toilet paper, towels, and hand sanitizer. They should be doing this every hour throughout the event.
They can also open the toilet doors when things are not as busy in order to air them out and keep things smelling as fresh as possible.
Additionally, by having individuals who can be identified as staff around the toilets, it will help keep things in order around the toilets and remind people to be respectful.
When you are holding a multi-day event, you want to keep the portable toilets you are renting clean and inviting. Carefully placed the toilets somewhere that will not contribute to the cleanliness of the toilets. Order enough toilets for your event. Have a bathroom attendant on duty to clean things up, resupply, air things out, and keep people accountable. You can also hire the company you are renting the toilets from to come out and clean the toilets for you.
Hello everyone. My name is Ian Fabel. Welcome to my site about sanitation. I want to discuss all the ways cities and their people can benefit from good sanitation practices. I have seen for myself what poor sanitation practices can do to the cityscape and the wellbeing of everyone there. People depend on the removal of garbage from their living spaces and work environments to stay happy and healthy. On this site, I will explore all the ways people can optimize the sanitation services offered by their city and other groups. Please feel free to visit anytime to learn more.
