Portable restrooms have come a long way in terms of comfort and cleanliness. With the right unit selection, appropriate servicing, and some thoughtful planning, you can provide comfortable facilities for your event attendees or work crews.
Choose The Right Unit Type
Different situations call for different units. Matching the unit type to your needs improves user comfort:
- Standard units: Suitable for construction sites and casual outdoor events where basic functionality is the priority.
- Deluxe units: Feature hand-wash stations, mirrors, and improved ventilation. Better for longer events or more formal gatherings.
- Flushable units: Provide a more familiar experience with flushing capability. Good for extended-use situations.
- Luxury trailers: Climate-controlled with running water, flushing toilets, and premium finishes. Ideal for weddings and upscale events.
Servicing Frequency Matters
Regular servicing keeps units clean and comfortable. Consider these factors when planning servicing:
- Usage level: Higher traffic requires more frequent servicing. Events with alcohol service typically see heavier use.
- Event duration: Multi-day events need scheduled servicing throughout. Single-day events may be fine with pre-event cleaning only.
- Weather conditions: Hot Sacramento summers may warrant more frequent servicing to maintain freshness.
Quantity Affects Comfort
Having enough units reduces wait times and prevents overuse of individual units:
- A general guideline is one unit per 50 guests for events up to 4 hours.
- Longer events, alcohol service, or primarily female attendance may require additional units.
- Construction sites typically need one unit per 10 workers for full-day use.
Placement Considerations
Where you place units affects user experience:
- In hot weather, shaded placement helps keep units cooler.
- Position units on level ground for stability and proper function.
- Place them close enough to be convenient but far enough from gathering areas for privacy.
Sacramento Weather Factors
Sacramento's climate affects portable restroom comfort. During summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees, consider:
- Selecting units with better ventilation
- Placing units in shaded areas when possible
- Increasing servicing frequency
- Considering luxury trailers with air conditioning for formal events
