There are certain events throughout the year that we all look forward to, no matter what our age may be. One of these events is the county fair. As providers of portable restroom rentals, we have gotten to travel the country and see a wide variety of fairs that happen throughout the year, and each one is specially unique and so different from the next.
In August, it was Greenville, Ohio’s turn to celebrate their local business community. The Great Darke County Faire is the region’s most popular and prestigious fairs, and is widely attended by many throughout the state, and even the country. Founded in 1853, this fair has a long history of bringing smiles to the local’s faces. Read a little about it:
“Regardless of who is in office, what attractions are offered, how hot the weather might be, how good old Great Darke County Fair just seems to steam along with only national emergencies to dent the boiler of that long, long train. People in general come to the fair to be entertained in one manner or another… through the speed program, the undeniable bounty of food and beverage, the livestock and Junior Fair, the gazebo attractions, the judging, the horse shoe pitching, the rides, the religious aspect…really, very few come with but one item in mind. It's all taken in one way or another.
The main grandstand entertainment has grown in popularity and, case in point, the Darke Fair was the first county fair to have the talents of Barbara Mandrell, straight from her having been named Entertainer of the Year. Quite a coup. Truth be stated, she's been to this fair twice. And there are many more stellar attractions that could be recalled. In 1999, Director, Larry Foureman, introduced the fair medallion to be commissioned in a series of eight leading up to its sesquicen- tennial 150th year in 2006.
The medallion featured the Gazebo in 1999 and in 2000 will silhouette the Grandstand. Only 500 of these coins will be minted each year. But all said and done, what makes this fair special is what really puts the “Great'' in Great Darke County Fair…the people. This means from the ticket taker to the board president, from the ride operator the person that sells balls at the Kewpie doll game…from the people who nightly spruce up the grounds, from the perspiring and dedicated board members, to the harness racing drivers and trainers from the snow cones lady to the waffle guy one who could fill pages of tributes.
The greatest of them all, however, is when the gates are at long last thrown open to one and all to children of all ages. And that's exactly what we all are.”
When the County Faire producers reached out to us needing portable restroom rentals, we couldn’t wait to get involved with this historic event.
VIP WITH PORTABLE RESTROOM RENTALS
Our goal is to provide our clients with upscale portable restroom rentals that elevate guest experience. The Great Darke County Faire wanted to provide their VIP visitors and entertainers with a restroom option that showed they cared. They needed options that could handle a large volume of users and that would impress VIPs and important performers, like local celebrity performers. After browsing options, they settled on two rental types.
For VIP, they chose to rent three of our 8 Station Classic Series portable restroom rentals. This unit was an ideal fit for their temporary restroom need because it is upscale, comfortable, and allows for large restroom visitation throughout the day in the VIP sections.
This portable restroomt unit features a men’s and women’s suite. The women’s suite is fitted with a central powder room accented with a large two sink vanity, shatterproof mirror, and a paper towel and hand dryer option. Four stalls are available for use with study privacy walls and the space to use the facilities comfortably.
The men’s suite of these portable restroom rentals is equipped with two privacy stalls and two urinals. Both suites feature soft lighting, an elegant black and white interior design, and flushable china toilets, ensuring that guests have a comfortable and elegant experience. For this trailer, ambiance is an important factor as this is a unit fit for upscale events and visitors with a high caliber.
Another important feature of this portable restroom trailer is the ability to control the interior climate. Our portable restrooms for rent always include air conditioning and heat strips to ensure that the temperature is comfortable no matter what the weather. For colder climates, the trailer also includes electric cabinet mounted heaters. We can guarantee that Darke County Faire’s VIPs are enjoying the very best restroom experience.
For special guests, musical performers, and entertainers, the county faire chose the 3 Station Calypso Series for backstage. This rental, measuring 16 feet with a 125 gallon fresh water tank and 500 gallon waste tank, is compact but mighty. It can service up to 350 visitors before requiring maintenance, which allows the company’s employees to use the restroom comfortably and whenever they need it.
To ensure safe entry, the porch to each of the portable restroom rental’s entry doors is equipped with ample lighting for easy access no matter what time, day or night. The entry ways have two sturdy aluminum steps and railing for additional safety.
On this Calypso Series portable restroom rental, guests will find three private bathrooms: two for women and one for men. All restrooms are designed with style in mind, showcasing earth tone interiors with modern flooring and color coordinated surfaces. They also include water saving flushable toilets, a sink vanity with a shatterproof mirror, hand dryer, and paper towels.
The men’s suite of this portable restroom rental is versatile with a toilet and urinal option.To ensure the entire unit maintains a comfortable climate, air conditioning and heat strips are installed and able to adjust the temperature so that outdoor weather does not affect the interior’s experience. As an added measure, insulated walls and ceiling surround the entire unit, further aiding in keeping the interior temperature just right.
As we continue to partner with new businesses, we want to highlight the value of renting and purchasing restroom trailers 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 restroom trailers 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 bathroom 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 and renters can ensure that restroom visitors have a top-notch experience with less manual labor.
The 8 Station Classic and 3 Station Calypso Series were ideal solutions for Great Darke County Faire. Of the many portable restroom rentals that we were able to show them, they favored these trailers because they were efficient, equipped with all the amenities of a home restroom, upscale enough for VIPs, and designed with thought. They knew that this restroom solution would be for special guests and didn’t want to sacrifice quality to save money.
We were happy to introduce the faire to a style of restroom trailers that they didn’t know existed. Many businesses still think that porta potties are the only portable bathroom options available, and our company is eager to change that opinion. We know that using the restroom is an inevitable part of the day, and all businesses want to provide both staff and guests with an option that fits their brand. Using a bathroom trailer rental for any of your temporary restroom needs guarantees that the elegance and ambiance throughout your establishment is upheld in the restroom as well.
With portable restroom rentals, we were able to supply a perfect restroom solution that was affordable and captured the ambiance that their event 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 short- or 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 Great Darke County Faire, the perfect fit that balances the two comes with portable restroom rentals.
