Whether you are planning to stage a festival, concert or other large public event, the one thing that you can't afford to get wrong is the adequate provision of public toilets. Nothing is more likely to ensure poor reviews for your event than large numbers of people being forced to queue for the toilet for an extended period of time. Portaloos are the obvious answer to this problem but if you host large events regularly then perhaps you have wondered whether buying what you need could work out cheaper rather than continuing to pay hire charges for portaloo hire.

Should you buy your portaloos?

The most obvious advantage that comes with buying your portable toilets is that you can avoid the recurring hire costs. This can be a particular concern if you want to use the toilets over an extended period of time and your usage requirements are unlikely to change over that period. In that situation then it may be feasible to buy your portaloos but even then there are significant disadvantages with buying portaloos. The biggest difficulty is disposing of all the waste that the toilet generates. Toilets need to be emptied regularly. If you arrange portaloo hire then they are emptied as part of the hire contract but if you buy the portaloos then emptying the toilet becomes your responsibility. You will either need to pay for someone to empty the toilet or to do it yourself you must have a waste carriers license and a valid contract with a suitable waste disposal company.

What are the advantages of choosing portaloo hire?

If you decide to hire portaloos you have the flexibility to arrange portaloo hire for as long as you need the toilets. If your requirements change you can vary the hire arrangements to match. Hiring portaloos also means that you don't need to store the toilets when they are not in use, you can simply arrange for their collection and then hire them again when you need them. Most importantly you will not be left with a large amount of waste from the toilets that will require disposal. The toilets will be emptied regularly by the hire company without you needing to worry about the problem of waste transportation and disposal.

In most circumstances it makes much better sense to hire the toilets you need, rather than committing to the purchase of portaloos for you to maintain and empty yourself. Choose portaloo hire and relax in confidence that all your toilet needs are being covered by qualified waste experts.
