Accessibility 101: 4 Ways ADA Access Elevates Your Restroom Experience

Today, accessibility is more important than ever. With more and more cities and states making it law to have ADA access throughout major events, buildings, and public spaces, savvy businesses are getting on board and ensuring that they provide a space that is accessible to all.When our CEO founded the company, she made it a priority to not only provide an upscale portable alternative to the porta-potty, but to ensure that we have ADA restroom trailers that were compliant in all 50 states. She has taught our team to preach the many values of providing an ADA option, because prioritizing every individual customer’s experience, no matter where the venture to in your business, is the mark of a good company. Below, we outline a few ways that upgrading something as simple as the restroom with an ADA-compliant option proves your a company that cares.1. InclusivenessThe most important thing you can do as a company, brand, or organization is to ensure that anyone who might be a customer feels welcome at your establishment. While the restroom seems like a minor place to show it, this is the place where it can matter most. Our ADA restroom trailers ensure that you are providing a bathroom option that is not only accessible to all, but showcases your inclusiveness no matter what differences your customers may have. 2. SpaceWhen it comes to the standard stall or restroom size, space is not a priority. Many bathrooms aim to cram as many stalls in as possible, leaving all who use them in occasionally awkward positions when trying to take care of their business. We’ve all done some shopping and had to juggle bags while using a limited restroom space, needed to change for an evening outing or the gym in the small stall after work, and many other scenarios that made us realize, “I simply don’t have enough space!” ADA restroom trailers ensure that when added space is simply necessary, it is an option. 3. Customer CareFor many, customer care is the primary focus of their business’ purpose. We have learned that making sure that each customer is well taken care of, from arrival to departure, is crucial for monetary success, loyalty, and reputation. There are so many little ways that you can show your customers you care. It’s in the greeting as they enter, the amenities provided during their stay, the organization of your business, and so much more. This does not stop at the restroom. You must ensure that every customer feels cared for, even those who may need added amenities. Guarantee that all individuals who visit your business have the restroom access they need, and it turn, the care, with ADA restroom trailers. They’re a quick, easy, and affordable solution that showcases how much you think about every individual experience. 4. Guest ExperienceAn optimal customer care plan leads those customers to view you as a company that cares. This improves their experience and raises your overall rating and impression. Make sure no guest is left behind when it comes to positive experience. From guests with families to those with disabilities, those just needing extra space to some who temporarily need the assistance of a wheelchair, every guest experience matters. Give them that added touch that says “5 star business” with ADA restroom trailers that offer the positive bathroom experience they need.If you are interested in exploring the ADA restroom trailers we have to offer for your business, browse the collection!

3 Ways Portable Restroom Rentals Can Improve Your City

The average person doesn’t really think about going to the bathroom. It is a very mundane, everyday task that is simply part of our biological makeup - and is not exactly a great conversation starter! In order to keep the restroom off of most people’s minds, many behind-the-scene actions are at play. Businesses typically provide bathrooms for guests, the workplace has one for employees, we all have one at home - everywhere we need to go, there is typically a place to, well, “go.” Let’s change the scenario. Say you’re in a new city and unfamiliar with the local businesses. You feel that urge and are forced to spend time searching for the nearest public restroom. Perhaps your an expecting mother, and sometimes, when you have to go, you HAVE to go! Other times, children will need to use the restroom urgently and unexpectedly. We should also think about the many homeless people in our country who don’t have access to these basic amenities. Where do they go when they need to? With these many questions to address as neighborhood, town, or city managers, a common solution has been portable restroom rentals. They provide that quick and easy solution to all those bathroom questions, and more and more cities are realizing the importance of providing a public restroom that is accessible to all. Below, we will examine a bathroom study done in Washington DC and reference a few other cities that have found that providing public restrooms with portable restroom rentals has improved their hometown. We use this article from CityLab as a reference.    A CLEAN SOLUTION WITH PORTABLE RESTROOM RENTALS   Over the course of three months in 2014 and 2015, Washington D.C. lawmakers went around the city asking local businesses if they could use their restroom. This is what they discovered: “ [after visiting] 85 food and coffee restaurants in the downtown area... only 43 businesses said yes, they reported. In 2016, they asked those 43 spots again, and only 28 let them in. By 2017, that number was down to 11 of the 28. This unofficial survey of five D.C. neighborhoods was paired with a citywide inventory of public restrooms. These, too, were scarce. Of all the public bathrooms available in the entire city, only two are open 24/7. They’re located in the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, far from pedestrian traffic, and totally unmarked.” This raises the question: if businesses are no longer opening their restrooms to the public, what are people supposed to do when they have a restroom emergency? Many cities avoided the use of public restrooms for many years, fearing that they’d become hot spots for vandalism, wrongful use, and overall dirtiness. Permanent public bathrooms and portable restroom rentals in San Francisco proved that theory wrong. “San Francisco, where 311 complaints regarding feces on the streets have peaked, installed a fleet of portable public bathrooms called Pit Stops in strategic locations.” The city began to see cleaner streets and has since expanded this pilot program. D.C. has chosen to follow in San Francisco’s footsteps. “legislation, approved unanimously by the D.C. city council this week, puts the city on track to explore a two-pronged approach with a pair of one-year pilot programs: One to determine where and how to install “clean, safe, stand-alone public restrooms” that operate 24/7; and the other, a program to encourage private businesses to open their restrooms to the public by creating an incentive program.” As more and more cities get on board with public restroom policies, perhaps it’s time for you, or your city managers, to consider a program of your own, and our portable restroom rentals are here to make your job easier. Our units are durable, easy to clean, and are designed with elegance so that every guest who enters feels comfortable. Consider using portable restroom rentals for these three key city purposes and see your city streets get more clean.   1. Events   From concerts in the park to movie nights on the lawn, the range of free city events that bring the public together are exciting, engaging, and rising in popularity. As you begin to discuss future public space activations, consider upgrading those porta potties to portable restroom rentals.    2. Public Access   For those bathroom options that are available to the public on a regular basis, portable restroom rentals are a quick solution. Ideal for families, tourists, and even to provide those displaced with a basic amenity, we have seen our trailers used as a quick and affordable option. Instead of investing in pricey construction and plumbing upgrades, considering portable restroom rentals kicks off your public bathroom process quickly and efficiently.    3. Cleanliness   At the end of it all, the conclusion around the nation is that not providing public restrooms leads to dirtier streets. From the homeless man with no where else to go to the group of rowdy college students on their way home from the bars at 2 a.m., there will always be someone who could benefit from having access to that public restroom. Keep your streets clean for locals and tourists alike by providing portable restroom rentals as dependable options! We would love to begin a conversation with you about your city. Is your community ready for a change? Need to clean up the dirty streets. Portable restroom rentals can help. Contact us to chat with our knowledgeable staff, and see some great rental options here.

Portable Bathrooms for Rent for Aldi Grocery Store

An inevitable part of weekly life is the trip to your local grocery store. Whether you visit a store that is known nation-wide or prefer your locally owned grocer or co-op, it is a top priority for many Americans to shop healthy and find amazing deals on the foods they crave. From produce to spices, meats to that little cheat treat, building our at-home menu is a crucial part of making a house a home. As you make your grocery decisions, one thing many of use spend most of our time considering is budget. We want the best, but let’s face it - we also want the best price. Shopping on a budget shouldn’t lead to making purchases that are not quite up to standard. That’s why many grocery stores make it a goal to provide the best quality for the most reasonable price. They realize that most Americans are feeding multiple people, living paycheck to paycheck, or are simply money savvy. Providing a shopping experience that is positive for both the shopper and the wallet is crucial. Aldi Grocery Stores has realized the value in providing the best for the most affordable. They are a company that we have begun working with recently, and it has been exciting to get to know their brand and what their goals are for their customers. They not only care about budget, but about their customers shopping experience. This is where portable bathrooms for rent come in.  Aldi realized that they needed a dependable restroom option for their store. They did their research and discovered the cost of expanding their brick-and-mortar option. Between construction, plumbing, permitting, and more, this was a costly and time consuming solution. They needed something quick and dependable before taking that next big step. We were happy to answer when they called.    A CUSTOMER-CENTERED GROCERY STORE    We love getting to work with family owned businesses like Aldi. It’s a truly special experience, getting to see children and grandchildren carrying out their family’s goals and dreams, growing and expanding the business beyond what many may have been dreaming years, and sometimes decades, ago. Aldi is now operating on an international scale despite humble beginnings. Here’s a little bit about the stores goals and customer guarantees: "We source delivered-daily produce, fresh meats and fish, and carry an extensive line of organics, gluten-free and vegan foods. We source only the best for our shelves. That means less time in stores and more savings for you.With over 400 awards and recognitions, critics and experts are in love with our exclusive wines, baby foods, gluten-free products and more. In addition to amazing quality and low prices, our customer service makes it easy to get answers, warranty and product recall information and more. Every ALDI exclusive is completely free of certified synthetic color, added MSG and partially hydrogenated oils. We're so much more than food! Look for our limited-time ALDI Finds. Discover amazing seasonal deals on homegoods and more!" Aldi is determined to continue to provide their customers with the best, and so are we. As we began partnering with them and hearing about their needs, we had a list of portable bathrooms for rent for them to consider and were excited to find the solution for them.   A SOLUTION WITH PORTABLE BATHROOMS FOR RENT   Aldi wanted portable bathrooms for rent that would satisfy any customer. When we asked them what they were looking for in a restroom option, their first answer was accessibility. They wanted to ensure that anyone visiting their stores would feel welcome and taken care of. They also know that this restroom option didn’t need to be very large, so a restroom trailer that could handle a medium-sized crowd would work great. After discussing options, Aldi decided that the ADA +2 Station Comfort Beach Series was the perfect solution for them. Boasting elegant design and able to handle up to 125 visitors before needing maintenance, the store felt this option left them in good hands.  The Comfort Beach Series collection of portable bathrooms for rent is 20 feet in length, perfect for companies looking for something a little more compact. With a 360 waste gallon tank and a 105 fresh water tank, this unit can handle regular use throughout the long business day.  This is one of our most popular portable restrooms for rent floor plan, featuring a men’s suite, women’s suite, and ADA-compliant unisex suite. The exterior is simple and cleanly designed, reinforced to prevent scratches and dents. Each suite is accessible by sturdy, aluminum steps and rails for safety, and the ADA suite comes with a short ramp for easy wheelchair access. The restroom rental is built with insulated walls to keep the interior temperature comfortable despite outside weather. The temperature is further maintained with an interior air conditioner and heater, ensuring that guests enjoy a pleasant climate when using the restroom. The interior is equipped with nonslip designer flooring for safe yet stylish use. The men’s and women’s suite feature flushable toilets, a sink vanity, and shatterproof mirror, with a urinal added to the men’s suite. The California ADA-compliant suite is built to lower to the ground with a touch of a button, allowing for a shorter ramp that takes up less space. The suite is built with an accessible toilet and sink, and grab rails are added for safety and easy access. The unit’s interior also allows for 360-degree turns in a wheelchair to further allow for a comfortable experience. The outside of each door comes with ample lighting to ensure that access is safe no matter what time it may be. Altogether, this compact restroom rental is perfect for a business that values safety, elegance, and accessibility for all. This, like many of our portable bathrooms for rent also comes with the option to add on the Smarter Restrooms App. As we continue to partner with new businesses, we want to highlight the value of renting and purchasing portable bathroom trailer units with the Smarter Restrooms App feature. This app has changed the game when it comes to restroom fleet management, making the job that much easier. Read ahead to discover three key upgrades that the app provides.   Receive Timely Notifications   Each of our portable bathrooms for rent comes with water saving flushable toilets, running water from sinks, and sometimes, showers and other amenities. This means that fresh water tank and waste tank levels require careful monitoring. No need to do this math on your own any longer! The Smarter Restroom App sends the fleet managers alert notifications when waste and freshwater tank levels are 2⁄3 full or empty, causing the unit will be out of service shortly. This is sure to boost productivity, allowing your team to have easy access to the information they need to keep portable restroom trailers operating smoothly.   All-In-One Control System   Nothing is more important than the experience of your guests. We want to ensure that every user has a comfortable experience in a climate-controlled unit with all the amenities of a brick-and-mortar restroom. This is an easy achievement with the app’s system operations control feature. The app detects and controls shore power, interior climate temperatures, and up-to-date weather conditions, giving units winter protection from freezing temperatures and keeping things cool when hot. This ensures that restroom fleet managers stay updated from a remote location - they’ll know what changes are needed to the unit and when, which allows for a consistently pleasant restroom experience for guests. The app also allows for geometric locating, allowing managers to see the exact locations of all portable restroom trailers at all times.   Offsite Unit Management   The most tasking part of operating a portable restroom trailer fleet is basic management. Making the trip back and forth to one or many units takes up valuable time, which can lower efficient customer service. The app addresses this issue as well. Managers have capabilities to remotely control lights, air conditioning, heating, water heaters, and trailer power. This means managers can operate more restroom trailers off-site, expand their operations, and provide superior service. Overall, the Smarter Restrooms App was developed to allow businesses who use or own portable restroom trailers to manage them more effectively. The app allows the management team to get more done in less time, makes fleet operations easier in general, and saves valuable employee time. Now, with the app, portable restroom trailers owners can ensure that restroom visitors have a top-notch experience with less manual labor.  In the end, this was the pick from our inventory of portable bathrooms for rent was an ideal solution for Aldi. Of the many portable restroom trailer units that we showed them, they favored this trailer because it was efficient, equipped with all the amenities of a home restroom, and designed with thought. They knew that this restroom solution would be long-term and didn’t want to sacrifice quality to save money. Luckily, with our portable bathrooms for rent, we were able to supply a perfect restroom solution that was affordable, accessible, and captured the ambiance that the city desired. As we look forward to helping other companies and organizations in the future, we want to spread the word that anyone looking for a long-term restroom option can find a solution with us. No need to sacrifice quality, and no need to break the bank on another high-end option. Like with the city of Seat Pleasant, the perfect fit that balances the two comes with an elegant portable restroom trailer option.    WE CAN HELP YOU WITH PORTABLE BATHROOMS FOR RENT   We have worked with companies and organizations much like the Aldi in the past, along with a wide variety of other businesses and facilities. We have provided our portable bathrooms for rent as facilities during events, disaster recovery, and for seasonal employees, as well as for those needing more long term solutions, like construction sites, logistics companies, and more.
