[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”392″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]When you think of a porta loo, a few things probably come to mind. And they’re probably not all positive. We understand – the history of the temporary loo is not exactly (how shall we put it?) … clean. Early portable toilets were made of materials that clung on to odors and they weren’t emptied often – or at all.
Luckily, we’ve come a long way since then. Continually improving and advancing technology and cleaning methods have meant that porta loos now provide a better experience than ever before. So, it’s time to tackle some of the most common misconceptions:
They hardly ever have toilet paper
Don’t blame poor planning on a porta loo. Running out of all-important toilet paper is more of issue around event organisation than it is of the porta loo service itself. Often, it comes down to event organisers and their budget when determining the amount of toilet paper to be provided at a particular event.
At Fancy Flush, we have many years’ experience in the industry and know how to accurately anticipate how much toilet paper is required depending on a number of factors such as the event type, duration and the location of the porta loos. We give our clients expert advice and guidance in this regard.
Beyond better planning, it’s also always recommended to hire cleaning staff to service porta loos during an event to ensure your guests aren’t left in an awkward situation. Our teams are expertly trained and will ensure the porta loos are clean and fully stocked with the essentials throughout your event.
They’re unsanitary and smelly
Modern porta loos are far from the ‘pungent’ long drops of the past. Even basic units can have a chemical flush mechanism and are designed in such a way that keeps all waste out of sight. On the higher end of scale, luxury units are designed with all the bells and whistles of a bricks and mortar bathroom – in fact, you’d be hard pressed to even notice the difference once inside.
When it comes to cleanliness, remember that even the fanciest bathroom can be a horrible mess if there are too many people using it, and not enough time spent cleaning and servicing it. So when renting portable toilets, always consider how they will be serviced. Fancy Flush offers a range of servicing options to suit your event and budget.
They’re not suitable for high-end events
If you think temporary toilets aren’t suitable for a black tie function or grand wedding, then you must not be familiar with the vast array of high-end options currently available. Just because it’s portable, doesn’t mean it can’t be posh. Portable toilet trailers offer completely fitted out bathrooms, complete with basins and lighting for evening use. They fit right in with any luxury event, offering a seamless experience for your guests. Browse some of the options here.
They harm the environment
When you partner with the right service provider, you can have complete peace of mind that all waste is correctly handled and disposed of with minimal environmental impact. Portable toilets also use a fraction of the amount of fresh water that standard toilets do – making them a water-wise choice for any event, office park or construction site.
