Usage chart for events


Special event organizers should refer to the usage chart above for use in determining the number of portable restrooms needed at a special event. Factors that may skew this chart:

* Does not allow for excessive consumption of beer that will cause the quantity of portables to be insufficient.


* If event space is a problem for a large quantity of portable toilets, then perhaps an alternative to reducing the number of units needed is an increase in the service/cleaning of the portable restroom units during the day of the event. If the units are serviced twice during each day of the event, you can cut the number required in half.
