Fall wedding season is upon us and almost in full effect. If you are planning an outdoor wedding or reception, you should know about our rentable restroom trailer options, especially if you are having a celebration larger than just with immediate family. Whether your celebration is in a nearby park or at your own home you should always plan ahead for your guests’ restroom needs. If you are having a celebration at home, let us help you keep guests out of your own personal bathroom and let us do the clean up work when the party is over. Our restroom trailers...
Do you ever drive by a construction worker who is high in the sky working on a skyscraper and wonder, what will they do when they have to go to the bathroom? Maybe I’m weird, but growing up as a kid, I certainly did. So what do they do? Do they hold it? Do they rush down the elevator to...
While most people probably prefer to use their own bathroom when nature calls, sometimes it just isn’t possible, and “holding it in” can be harmful (or even fatal – think back to 2009 when a Sacramento radio station (KDND-FM) contestant passed away due to water intoxication from an on-air water-drinking contest). It’s important to take care of your bodily needs as necessary. Many people, however, are hesitant to use portable restrooms (aka porta potties), due to cleanliness concerns. We speak from experience when we say that portable restrooms can be just as clean and nice to use as a regular bathroom!...
Every family, especially ones with younger children, should have an emergency kit and plan prepared and in place ahead of time. The kit should be designed to help get you and your family through a few days without power or access to outside assistance, and the plan should be specific and memorized by all members of your family. In honor of September's National Preparedness Month, let these simple steps serve as a guide for how to put your own emergency plan into place. • Make your plan together. Think of scenarios that could happen and plan how you would manage your...

Many businesses have made strides to be eco-conscious, altering their practices to provide services that minimize their negative impact on the environment. The sanitation industry – which includes portable restrooms and restroom trailers – is doing its part as well. Portable restrooms (or the more well known term “porta potties”) have natural, eco-friendly characteristics including: Ability to recycle waste Use less water than...

Know The Weather. Do some basic research to identify when certain weather phenomena are likely to occur. Don’t plan an outdoor wedding during a typically rainy season, or when the weather is too hot or too cold. The safest time for an outdoor wedding is during milder seasons, typically late spring or early fall. Incorporate Natural Décor. What’s the best part...

In our immediate area, almost 3 million people were left without power – some...
