When a hand-wash station is worth adding
Standard portable toilets have sanitizer but no sink. Anywhere people eat, handle food or animals, or get properly dirty, soap and water does a much better job.
Events serving food should plan on at least one station, and about one for every ten toilets. Many local health departments expect hand washing near food vendors, so check your event permit. On job sites with no running water, put one next to the toilets and another at the break area.
How many hand-wash stations
A starting point. A local provider will confirm the count on follow-up.
| The setup | Stations | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Event with food, up to 10 toilets | 1 | Put it between the toilets and the food area. |
| Event with food, 11 to 20 toilets | 2 | |
| Row of food vendors | 1 per 2 to 3 vendors | Check your event permit. |
| Job site without water | 1 per bank of toilets | Plus one at the break area. |
| Petting zoo or farm event | 1 at each exit |
Your event permit or health department may set its own requirement. Mention it on the form.
Empty by mid-afternoon
A busy food event can run through a station's water and towels faster than people expect. By three o'clock the pump is dry and the dispenser's empty, and people are back to wiping their hands on their jeans.
Tell us how many people you're expecting and how long the event runs. We'll size the service to match, and on busy days that can mean refills during the event. Put the stations where people pass them on the way to the food, not tucked around the back.
Place them on the way
Between the toilets and the food, where people walk past.
Pick level ground
A flat spot so the tank and pumps sit properly.
Plan the refills
Busy events use water and towels fast. We'll set service to match.
From request to pickup
Tell us about the site
Crew size or guest count, the dates, and where the units should go. It takes a couple of minutes.
We work out the count
Delivery, service and pickup are typically included. The local provider confirms pricing for your request.
We deliver and service them
Pumped, cleaned and restocked on schedule until you're finished.
