There are many myths surround porta potties and people feel uncomfortable using them because of these myths. Patriot Portable Restrooms shares the truth behind these common myths, so you can get over your fear or disdain of using portable toilets.
This is probably the most common misconception about porta potties. While the standard blue box may be a common sight at fairs, festivals, or construction sites, this doesn’t mean it’s your only option. Many companies offer luxury options, such as portable restroom trailers or porta potties designed for more formal events.
Each unit is washed out and completely sanitized before being installed. They are easy to keep clean with a little maintenance. When you rent from us, we are happy to come clean the rentals every couple of days. We don’t want your guests/employees using dirty bathroom facilities.
This can be true, but a smelly porta potty is a dirty one. Make arrangements with the rental company for the units to be emptied and cleaned regularly to avoid odor. At Patriot, vents are installed in each unit to prevent heat and odors from becoming an issue.
Just because a unit doesn’t include a sink does not mean there are no options for washing your hands. A venue may provide a portable hand-washing sink. Many companies install and stock hand sanitizer dispensers in each unit as well. Restroom trailers do have sinks with running water and soap. You have options to make sure that your guests/employees are able to wash their hands after use.
While porta potties are a staple of concerts, fairs, and other informal events, it doesn’t mean they can’t be used at more upscale events too. Many companies realize the demand for portable restrooms at formal events, such as weddings, and have begun to offer luxury restroom trailers for this very purpose. These trailers offer flush toilets, running water, mirrors, air conditioning, and more amenities. Contact Patriot today to ask about these luxury restroom trailers.
While a toilet trailer may be a more comfortable option for a formal event, they can be used at any event that offers water and power. They can provide an ADA accessible restroom as well, which can benefit disabled guests.
While one toilet can work for small events, it is better to arrange for several to be installed for convenience. Why make your guests/employees wait in line when they could be enjoying your celebration/getting back to work?
Portable restroom companies are well-versed in waste management and know how to keep portable toilets sanitary with eco-friendly methods.
