Hiring Portable Toilets For Christmas & New Year Events


A Guide to Hiring Portable Toilets for Christmas and New Year Events

To keep your Christmas and New Year events running smoothly, it’s important to have adequate facilities for your guests. Hiring portable toilets makes sure you have enough loos for everyone and that nobody’s stuck queuing for the facilities when they should be enjoying the party. Portable toilets not only reduce the strain on existing facilities but also makes sure everyone has a well-run and pleasant party time. This blog will delve into the reasons why opting for portable toilets is an indispensable choice for ensuring the success and enjoyment of Christmas and New Year events.

Understanding the Need for Portable Toilets at Holiday Events

Everything about the festive season is bigger and better than through the rest of the year, and you’ll often be hosting more guests than usual at your events. As the number of attendees increases, so does the strain on existing facilities, often resulting in long queues and compromised comfort. Portable toilets give you a practical solution by adding extra facilities just when you need them, making sure that guests can enjoy the festivities without disruption. 

Beyond convenience, these portable toilets make sure that the highest health, safety and hygiene standards are kept up. Their self-contained nature and regular maintenance reduce the risk of overcrowded and unhygienic conditions, providing a safe and comfortable experience for your event attendees. In essence, using portable toilets helps you prioritise the comfort of your guests, keep facilities clean, and ultimately make your Christmas and New Year events a roaring success.

Factors to Consider When Hiring Portable Toilets

When hiring portable toilets for your event, keep in mind the size of your event, how long it’s going to last and the location and accessibility of your site. Firstly consider how big your venue is and how many guests you’re expecting so you can calculate how many toilets you’ll need. The length of your event is the second factor to think about, as the longer your event runs, the more cleaning your loos will need and you’ll need to have a schedule in place to keep them in the best condition. Finally it’s best to take into account the logistics of your site when planning your toilet hire. Toilet placement might be dictated by accessibility, as well as the layout of your event. Loos for Hire can help with this planning to make sure you get the toilet hire right for your event. With years of experience they can advise on the best number, placement and cleaning schedule for toilet hire to make your event run smoothly. 

Customisation and Additional Features

On top of providing toilet facilities for your guests, it can make your event even better if you include features like baby changing facilities and hand wash stations to go the extra mile for your attendees and make them even more comfortable. 

Baby changing toilets and family loos cater to the needs of families by providing a dedicated space for parents to attend to their kids comfortably. This thoughtful inclusion makes your event even more inclusive and keeps your guests happy. 

Handwashing stations, equipped with soap dispensers and running water, keep high hygiene standards and keep the spread of germs at bay. They also improve the flow of people through the facilities as they can wash their hands separately to using the loo, keeping queues moving. These additional features go beyond the basic necessities, showing you’re committed to the comfort of your guests and giving them the best experience possible.

Health and Safety Regulations

Keep your guests safe and well by complying with health and safety regulations governing your event. Make sure you have enough toilets per person to comply with local government guidelines; this may even be a stipulation of your event licence. 

Failing to adhere to these regulations can lead to health risks, logistical challenges and potential legal repercussions. By having enough portable toilets to meet health and safety standards, event organisers not only create a safe and hygienic environment but also foster a positive reputation, enhance guest satisfaction and contribute to the overall success and longevity of events.

Tips for Efficient Use and Maintenance During the Event

To make your event successful, when it comes to placement, strategically position portable toilets in easily accessible locations. Consider the flow of foot traffic and keep them in convenient locations that won’t disrupt your event should queues form. Regular maintenance is essential to keep your toilets hygienic; schedule frequent cleaning and restocking of supplies to prevent unpleasant conditions. You can also appoint on-site attendants to monitor the state of the toilets and keep them in the best condition by sorting problems quickly. Finally, make sure you prioritise the availability of handwashing stations with soap and water to give your guests plenty of options to keep their hands clean and stop the spread of infections.

Overall, it’s hard to overstate the importance of having the proper facilities at your Christmas and New Years events this year. As gatherings grow in size during the festive season, the provision of adequate and well-maintained portable toilets is a key factor that will make your event a success. We have highlighted key considerations, including anticipating event size, duration and attendee needs, along with the importance of compliance with health and safety regulations. Features like baby changing toilets and handwashing stations add an extra layer of convenience and hygiene. To ensure a seamless and memorable celebration, we encourage you to plan ahead meticulously, taking into account the range of things to consider.
