Planning an event, whether it’s a wedding, festival, corporate gathering, or a sports day, requires attention to detail to ensure the comfort and satisfaction of attendees. One essential yet often overlooked aspect is providing adequate restroom facilities. This is where event portable toilet hire comes into play, offering a practical solution for any venue without permanent restroom facilities or where additional capacity is needed.
What is event portable toilet hire?
Event portable toilet hire is a practical solution for any kind of event venue where there are no permanent facilities or where existing facilities are in short supply. The supply of temporary mobile toilet units is perfect for weddings, festivals, corporate events or sporting fixtures, to ensure the comfort and satisfaction of guests, participants and attendees. Both public and private events can benefit from portable toilet hire, with toilet trailers to cater for fewer than 100 guests, up to thousands.
Why event toilet hire is essential
Luxury toilet hire is indispensable for outdoor events or venues with limited toilet access. It provides convenience, maintains hygiene standards, and helps keep the event running smoothly. A lack of toilet facilities can lead to long queues, discomfort for attendees, and potentially negative feedback. Ensuring there are enough clean and accessible toilets reflects positively on the organisation and overall success of the event.
Who needs event toilet hire?
Any event that welcomes guests can benefit from event toilet hire. This could include:
Weddings – wedding toilet hire is an essential consideration when planning a wedding, and using a reliable and reputable supplier like Wight Event Toilet Hire will leave you free to focus on other aspects of the day.
Sporting fixtures – luxury toilet hire at sporting events gives spectators and competitors a truly prestige and exclusive experience.
Graduation balls – hotspots in any academic calendar include freshers’ week and graduation season, when the university population experiences a huge increase. Luxury toilet hire for universities can bridge the gap, ensuring that extra visitors are well catered for.
Seasonal events – these include county shows, winter fairs and Christmas markets, where large numbers of visitors could overwhelm the permanent infrastructure, or where locations are remotely situated away from mains facilities.
Types of portable toilets available
The type of toilets to hire for events will depend on the nature and scale of your occasion. At Wight Event Toilet Hire, we offer a wide choice of luxury toilet trailer, ranging in size, capacity and price. Our 1+1 compact toilet is the perfect solution for garden parties or intimate wedding celebrations, while the 4+2 luxury toilet is ideal for larger scale events. We also offer an 18-bay urinal, great for events with a higher ratio of male to female guests, and a luxury disabled toilet that will help event organisers with compliance and inclusion. For event planners working to strict budgets, the 2-bay economy toilet and the 4-bay economy toilet offers a touch of luxury at a more economical price point.
Factors to consider when hiring portable toilets
Guest numbers - the number of toilets you need will depend on your guest count. As a rule of thumb, one toilet per 50-75 people is recommended for events lasting a few hours. For multi-day events, or where alcohol is served, you may need to increase this ratio.
Event duration - the longer the event, the more frequently toilets will need to be cleaned and restocked. Chat to us about maintenance plans for a multi-day event.
Accessibility - ensure toilets are placed in easily accessible locations and consider providing facilities for individuals with disabilities, and for families with babies and toddlers.
Waste management – at WET Hire, waste disposal services are part of your rental agreement. As licenced waste carriers with The Environment Agency, we are registered to dispose of all waste in line with relevant legislation.
Steps to hiring luxury portable toilets
Determine your needs - assess the type and number of toilets required based on your event size, type, and budget. How many toilets do I need for an event? will help.
Book early – the events calendar has peak periods where the demand of luxury toilet hire is higher than at other times of the year. Always book as far in advance as you are able, to avoid disappointment and to secure your preferred trailers.
Think about unit location – talk to us about your location and together we can decide on the best position for your portable toilet unit. We will work with you to ensure they are evenly distributed across the event site, and easily accessible.
Schedule maintenance - for multi-day events, we can arrange for regular cleaning and restocking to maintain hygiene standards.
