There are many occasions when you may need to rent portable restrooms, and the A1 Portables team can help make renting portable washrooms an easy experience.

Events That Require Portable Restrooms

Any outdoor event that doesn’t provide access to standard restrooms will need portable ones—if you’re managing an event where people with gather, like festivals, concerts, athletic events, and construction sites, you’ll certainly need access to portable restrooms. You will also want to rent at least one portable restroom for large outdoor gatherings like weddings and graduation parties. Many people rent a portable washroom for parties at home, so their bathroom doesn’t get as much use.

How Many Portable Restrooms Do You Need?

That’s a great question. Standing in line for 30 minutes to use the washroom makes attending any event much less enjoyable.

  • The general rule is to have one portable washroom for every 50 people. This number can increase if your event will be several hours long or if you will be serving alcohol.
  • Public events require one ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant restroom for every 50 standard restrooms.
  • Construction sites must have one portable washroom for every 20 people on site.

When Should You Reserve Your Portable Washrooms?

We suggest reserving your restrooms at least two weeks before your event if you need less than 20 units. You should contact us at least a month before for occasions that need more than 20 portable washrooms. Moving portable restrooms requires trucks and staffing that your vendor must schedule in advance to ensure we can meet your needs.
