How Many Portable Toilets Do You Need?

When you are hosting an outdoor event without any nearby facilities, you will need to consider bringing in Santa Rosa portable toilets. But is just on enough or do you need several? You will want to think ahead with care so you don’t end up with desperate individuals in one long bathroom line. Here are some of the items to consider.  

Number Of Attendees 

How many people do you expect to attend your event? A couple of dozen? Hundreds? More? The number of people who will be at the event will help you determine how many portable toilets you need. If you’re only having 50, you could get away with one portable toilet. If you are having 1,000, you’ll need at least 5 or maybe even more.  

Event Hours 

How many hours long is the event you’re hosting? If the event is short, just a couple of hours, you won’t need as many portable toilets as you would if the event is a whole day. Increase the number of toilets the more hours the event runs.  

Service Options 

Are you serving food and beverages at the event? If so, you’ll want to ensure there are enough portable toilets and you will want more than if you are not serving anything. Even if you don’t serve drinks, if people are allowed to bring their own, you’ll need to accommodate them afterwards.  

Hand Wash Stations  

Some portable toilets come with sinks and handwashing capabilities. If you get standard portable toilets, they do not and you will want to add one handwashing station to every four portable toilets to give people the ability to clean up.  

Weekly Portable Toilets 

If you are running a jobsite and not an event, you will want to think about how many shifts are being worked on the site and with how many people. You can usually accommodate 10 workers during a 40-hour week with just one portable toilet. If you have more than that, it’s important to calculate and add more toilets to the site to meet their needs.
