Planning an outdoor event comes with a slew of challenges. How are you going to organize the space? Where is everybody going to park their cars? What happens if it rains? Most importantly, where are people going to go to the bathroom?
If you're planning an outdoor event and are thinking that portable toilet rentals are the way to go, there are a few things to consider:
How many people are attending? Generally, we suggest renting one portable toilet per 100 guests, for up to four hours. This is a basic estimate and should be tailored to your event. If its longer than four hours and/or you're hosting more people, more portable toilets could keep your guests happier.
Is there a higher percentage of women than men? It goes without saying that men and women have different considerations when using the facilities. If there are more women than men on your guest list, it could be wise to plan on renting more portable toilets to ensure your female guests are comfortable and happy.
Are you going to be serving alcohol (or can guests bring their own)? Obviously, alcohol increases the need to use the facilities. If you are serving alcohol at your event, you'll need to plan on renting at least three porta potties. We suggest having three porta potties for every 100 people, if your event lasts longer than four hours.
How long is your event? As we have mentioned above, the length of your event plays a huge role in how many portable toilets you'll need to provide your guests. The longer people are at your event, the greater the chance they'll have to "go."
