Special Events
On Site Sanitation is large enough to satisfy the portable restroom and portable hand washing needs of events with up to 100,000 people and more. On Site Sanitation still focuses on providing personalized service that allows us to be flexible and provide custom portable sanitation solutions to more personal needs such as weddings, corporate functions, and backyard picnics.
Proper planning is the key to successful events and mass gatherings. Studies indicate that providing adequate portable sanitation facilities has a significant impact on event attendance and profitability.
Special consideration should be given to quantity, placement, and service of the portable toilets and other portable sanitation equipment such as portable hand washing stations.
Because users of the portable restroom facilities determine the quality of service based on both real and perceived conditions, the special events coordinator will want nice, clean, high quality portable toilets and portable sinks that are in good repair with vent screens and door locks. Our event toilets and portable sinks are used only for special events and never on construction sites
 |
Proper service will maintain the condition of the special event toilets with regards to the level of waste, availability of tissue, and keeping the interior of the portable toilets clean. Even if the event is not large enough to warrant pumping service, general housekeeping of the portable sanitation facilities can make a significant impact on the event. |
A bad experience with a portable restroom can affect the users attitude toward the event itself.
Just as providing too few portable restrooms can have a major economic impact on promoters and vendors,
providing too many portable toilets can cause excessive expense. The following chart provides a guideline in determining the number of portable restroom facilities necessary to provide adequate portable sanitation service to your customers.
Number of portable toilets required when no pumping service is provided. 1 portable toilet provides approximately 250 uses.
