Restroom Trailer Tips & Education

When planning an event, there are so many details that tend to seduce the passionate planner away from more mundane tasks. You get swept up by menus and design, entertainment and florals, and may put key experiential things like health and safety at the end of your list.It’s time to reprioritize! With flu season and COVID-19 making their rounds, it is important for event planners to pay extra attention to the health and safety of their crowds. Ensuring that everyone leaves in the same state they entered is more important than ever.Fortunately, the savvy planner has learned that there are quite a few preventative measures that they can take to ensure their event is a safe and healthy environment for guests. See some tips below that will help you to make sure your visitors stay in tip-top shape despite the diseases that may come and go.  HydrationMany of us take for granted the importance of drinking water. We don’t realize how necessary it is to keep our bodies running. This is especially true when temperatures begin to peak. Hot summer events see many victims of severe dehydration and it’s important that, as an event, you promote drinking water for health and safety. A hydrated body is also more capable of fighting off new bacteria that may enter the body. Make sure to provide free water for guests so you can ensure you do your part to keep your attendees hydrated. Hand WashingHandwashing is one of the best ways to prevent the spreading of disease, especially in a crowded setting. We all know how it goes: you touch a contaminated surface, germs are on your hands, you touch your face, now germs are in your body. It can be a vicious cycle, but can also be easily broken by washing your hands. Ensure your guests are practicing this important health and safety tip by providing handwashing stations in addition to your restrooms. Our Hand Washing Trailer is perfectly equipped to handle crowds of all sizes, allowing every guest access to a sink when they need one. CapacityLet’s deal with the serious stuff first. When planning your event, paying attention to venue size is an important task because if you fill your venue above capacity, you’ll get fined. The fire department enforces capacity for health and safety purposes. So yes, we all want to avoid that fine! But more importantly, this reminds us to be conscious of crowd size. Overcrowded venues can cause violence and spread disease. Double-check your capacity requirements and listen to what Fire advises. It’s for your community’s own good. AccessibilityWhen you see the word accessibility, your first thought is probably about those with disabilities. This is good! It is absolutely important to ensure that your event is accessible for all to enjoy and we make restroom trailers to ensure that the bathroom is a welcoming place as well. But let’s take accessibility a bit further. It’s not just about those with disabilities. It’s about ensuring bathroom lines don’t get too long or too packed, making sure first aid is available if needed (see #5 below!) and confirming that everyone can get to an exit in case of an emergency. Accessibility to these items and more can make or break your event when it comes to health and safety. Take the time to examine your venue and make sure that accessibility is prioritized for all.  First Aid and Onsite MedicalIn case the worst does happen for someone in your crowd, it is important for you, as the event manager, to be prepared for a medical emergency. No matter what the case may be, from severe dehydration to a small scratch needing a band-aid, making sure you have tools - and the people with knowledge - to assist is crucial. When it comes to events, you simply never know. It’s best to stay fully prepared and ready to take on whatever may get thrown at you.With these tips, you can run successful events while keeping the health and safety of your crowd in mind. Preventative measures like hand washing and hydration ensure your event doesn’t cause the spreading of disease, and maintaining a safe crowd that has access to necessary amenities keeps attendees happy and well taken care of.Let us help your event succeed further with restroom rentals! Our trailers are fully equipped with amenities that help to support health and safety. Contact us for information on what may be the perfect fit for your event!

As the year comes to an end, it is crucial for business owners to find those last-minute deals that can save money. As you wrap up final costs for the year, make sure you don't miss out on an opportunity for big savings. The section 179 tax deduction is a must-have for every business, and portable restrooms can be that big-ticket purchase you need to save the most.Under the Section 179 Deduction, you can earn a tax break by selling and buying NOW through the end of the year! This is a saving opportunity for all business owners that not many are aware of; there is no advantage in waiting to sell or buy new portable restrooms. If you wait until the beginning of a new year, you may actually lose money. Capitalize on great deals with our in-stock units to save on the total cost, and ensure delivery by December 31, 2021 to qualify for the section 179 deduction.As stated on the IRS website:You can elect to recover all or part of the cost of certain qualifying property, up to a limit, by deducting it in the year you place the property in service. This is the section 179 deduction. You can elect the section 179 deduction instead of recovering the cost by taking depreciation deductions.To learn more on the IRS website, click here.What is the Section 179 Deduction?Using the Section 179 tax code, you can deduct the full purchase price of any equipment which qualifies and is purchased or financed during the tax year in question. What this means is if you buy or lease equipment like portable restrooms, it is possible to deduct the full purchase price from your gross income. By adding up your total equipment, software, and vehicles purchased for your business in 2017, you can write off or expense up to 100% of the cost of a portable restroom for purchase for up to $500,000, and then 50% of the remaining balance up to $2,000,000!

With industry price increases on the horizon reaching 6-10%, this is just another reason to purchase now instead of waiting.Assets eligible for the deduction don’t need to be brand new, just new to you.

Over the years, we have built an impressive inventory of restroom trailers, including luxury portable bathrooms. We have designed a trailer for every occasion, from construction sites to black tie events and everything in between.Portable Luxury Bathroom Trailers OfferWhen our owner first broke into the sanitation business, she noticed that portable bathrooms provided a very basic experience. They only contained what was absolutely necessary, did not consider the effects of outdoor temperature, and had no additional amenities that made the experience comfortable for guests. With this in mind, our company was born and created a new kind of trailer. These ranged from basic, affordable trailers for things like work projects, mid-level luxury for a more upscale need, and luxury bathroom rentals for high-end needs.Our luxury portable bathrooms have truly changed the game when it comes to outdoor events. We know how important looks can be when it comes to an event. Design is the first thing attendees will see. No matter how much money is put into an event, visual aesthetics is one of the most important aspects. With a portable bathroom, you can guarantee that attendees have an experience like no other. Get rid of that hideous row of port-a-potties! Here are three ways our luxury portable bathrooms will upgrade any outdoor event you plan in 2022. DesignIn many cases, event design is the most important factor of an event. A good event has amazing visuals that are capable of creating ambiance and inspiring an emotional reaction from attendees. Whether it’s “WOW” or “AMAZING,” that initial visual impression can make or break an event.What doesn’t give us a WOW factor is that inevitable row of port-a-potties that all guests dread having to visit. Unfortunately, it is rare to come across a port-a-potty experience that is pleasant or memorable. Whether your event is a music festival or a black-tie outdoor dinner, the restroom experience is important. Why go through the effort of creating an atmosphere when it is immediately broken by looking at a port-a-potty, let alone entering one?This thought process is what inspired our luxury portable toilet rentals. We wanted to not only create a restroom exterior that fit the ambiance of an event but wanted to take that elegant experience inside of the bathroom. Our luxury bathrooms guarantee that every detail of your event design has been looked over and approved as an elevated experience, even when doing something as mundane as using the restroom.Luxury Restroom ExperienceLet’s get real. Think about the last event you attended as a guest. Over the course of the event, how many times did you need to use a restroom? Now, as an event planner, apply that number to your guests. Considering how often the average guest will have to come in contact with the restroom, wouldn’t you prefer to offer them the best experience possible? How will many visits to a port-a-potty affect the response to your event?We think that a temporary restroom solution should offer all the amenities of a home bathroom. We’ve equipped our luxury portable bathrooms with those little things we take for granted: hot water, heat and air conditioning strips, mirrors, paper towels dispensers, blow dryers, and even interior design. We know how important these little things are, and providing them for guests will make your event stand out that much more. ExperienceAs important as event design is, we’d say that guest experience is the number one ranker of success when it comes to events. It’s why you spend time on the design, the vendors, the entertainment, and the amenities. At the end of it all, you want your guests to leave with smiles on their faces and memories to share with friends and family.This is also number one on our list in the sanitation industry. We realized that no one had really given guest experience much thought when creating the first restroom trailers. We took a great concept and upgraded it by putting ourselves in the shoes of the guest. What makes a restroom experience pleasant? By adding in the amenities that aren’t quite necessary but are very nice to have, we created our luxury portable bathrooms. We know that we can provide a restroom experience that is unique in portable options. Guests will definitely notice the extra effort and will appreciate the upgrade, elevating your overall event experience. If the smallest of tasks is elegant, the atmosphere as a whole becomes more impressive.Get Your Luxury Portable BathroomsLuxury Portable Bathroom Rentals Think a luxury portable bathroom is exactly what you need to make your 2022 outdoor events a hit?
