Hosting a large outdoor event such as a charitable 5K run, a festival, wedding, family reunion or a outdoor BBQ can be a little daunting when you don’t have the restroom facilities to accommodate the size of your crowd. For those with little experience, it can be hard to determine the number of porta potties needed when planning such an event.
How to Determine the Right Amount Porta Potties For Your Event
Portable toilets are in high demand during this time of year, which is why Waste Master Solutions of Delaware suggests planning ahead for an event where porta potties are necessary in order to get the best prices. If you are in charge of a special event, part of that is ensuring the right amount of porta potties and sanitation stations are ordered.
If your activity will take place in a rural setting far from public sewers, keep in mind septic systems are extremely limited when it comes to handling large amounts of waste. Avoid messy and hazardous disasters by planning ahead.
Even events held in areas where modern day conveniences, such a flush toilets and sinks are available, may benefit from our clean and affordable porta potty and wash stations. Large crowds and long lines for facilities could take away from your event.
The correct number of porta potties can make a big difference in the success of an event. There will be a consistent need for bathroom facilities when hosting an hours long event. Especially ones that involve a consistent consumption of food and beverages.
Another consideration when hosting and outdoor event is to have hand sanitizing stations and portable handicap toilets for larger or public events. When shopping around for port-a-potty rentals, you’ll want to ask plenty of questions. Often, the lower quotes might not actually be the cheapest, as they may include extra charges for items such as collection, delivery and toilet paper. Be sure to clarify ALL costs incurred before making a final decision.
While you want the portable restrooms close to the event, you don’t want them too close. Have your supplier help you map out the area and ascertain the best location and the amount of space you’ll need so there is no surprises at setup time.
Be sure to deal with a reputable portable restroom provider and confirm that the units will be delivered on time, in clean and working order. Also plan for the the best porta potty location for your event and ensure they will be properly serviced throughout the duration of the event.
The number of portable toilets needed for an event hinges on the variety of factors, such as the number of attendees, event duration and whether alcohol is served. Adding 10% more porta potties for an event serving alcohol should be sufficient. Check out this chart to determine the number of porta potties needed for your event.
