Types of Portaloos to Consider for Your Outdoor Event

Posted on

If you are planning a community outdoor event, then using a portaloo hire may be an ideal option for you and your guests. When you do this, you may think that the only portaloo options available are the traditional stand alone single person option. The truth is, there are several types of portaloos you can choose from. Here are three types to consider.

Handicap Accessible

Regardless of your event size, it is a good idea to consider a handicap-accessible portaloo. These types of portaloo options come in several varieties. The most popular is the wheelchair accessible option. This option generally has a ramp and plenty of room for someone who is wheelchair bound to maneuver into the portaloo and out again unassisted. There are other types as well that are designed for wheelchair-bound individuals that need assistance in and out of their wheelchair.

Family Portaloos

For many parents, sending their child into a portaloo alone is not an option. This may be due to their own feelings on their child going into the portaloo without an adult. The other reason may be having too many children to send them in one at a time. Having a family portaloo is an ideal option because it allows families to enter at the same time and exit at the same time. It also allows different gender children of the same family or group to be kept together rather than going in seperate portaloos, which can lead to a child being lost from wandering off after they are done.

Clean-up Stations Combos

Some portaloos have the option of offering a sink for easy sanitary cleanup. These options can be connected to a fresh water supply and have a full clean-up station inside. This is ideal for families, small children, or simple sanitation options. You can also find these clean-up station portaloos with no running water, but the option of a sanitizer station with cleanup wipes and baby changing stations as well.

Baby Changing Portaloos

One issue that many parents have when it comes to event portaloo options is the inability to find one with a private baby changing station. One option for you, as the event planner, is to have a baby changing portaloo. These portaloo types have a toilet area as well as a drop down baby changing area. They also come equipped with sanitary options such as a sanitizer station, bags for soiled nappies, and sanitary changing pads as well.

If any of these sound like the right portaloo for your event, contact your local portaloo hire. They can help with getting the right ones for your event and any delivery and pricing questions you may have.
