Planning an event involves countless details, and one of the essential aspects is ensuring your guests have access to clean and comfortable restroom facilities. Renting restroom trailers can be an excellent solution, especially for outdoor events, but it's important to avoid common pitfalls to ensure a smooth experience. Here are the top five mistakes to avoid when renting restroom trailers for your event:
1. Underestimating the Number of Restrooms Needed
One of the most common mistakes event planners make is underestimating the number of restrooms required. This can lead to long lines and uncomfortable situations for your guests. To avoid this, carefully consider the guest count and the duration of the event. A general rule of thumb is to have at least one restroom per 50 guests for a four-hour event. However, you should also factor in the nature of the event (e.g. if food and drinks are being served) and the demographics of your attendees. Royal Flush can help you determine the appropriate number of bathrooms needed to accommodate your guests comfortably.
2. Neglecting Restroom Placement
The placement of your restroom trailers is crucial for both accessibility and aesthetics. They should be easily accessible to all guests but positioned discreetly to avoid being an eyesore or disrupting the event flow. Choose a level, stable place to ensure the units are secure and functional. Additionally, consider the distance from key areas like dining and entertainment zones to minimize the inconvenience for your guests. Proper placement not only enhances the guest experience but also maintains the overall look and feel of your event.
3. Ignoring the Need for Different Types of Restrooms
Not all restroom trailers are created equal, and choosing the right type is essential for guest satisfaction. For upscale events, such as weddings or corporate gatherings, luxury restroom trailers are a must. These bathrooms come equipped with high-end features like flushing toilets, running water sinks, climate control, and elegant interiors. Ignoring the need for luxury options can leave your guests unimpressed and uncomfortable. Make sure to discuss the different types of restrooms available with your provider and select units that match the sophistication and style of your event.
4. Failing to Provide Necessary Amenities
While basic portable restrooms might suffice for casual events, upscale events require additional amenities to ensure guest comfort. Items such as hand sanitizers, luxury hand towels, and even small touches like fresh flowers can significantly enhance the restroom experience. Additionally, consider amenities like baby changing stations and handicap-accessible units to accommodate all your guests' needs. Providing these extras shows your attention to detail and commitment to creating a comfortable environment for everyone.
5. Overlooking Logistics and Maintenance
Logistics and maintenance are often overlooked aspects of renting portable restrooms. Ensure that the units have access to necessary utilities, such as water and power, especially for luxury units with climate control and running water. Discuss the delivery and setup process with your provider to ensure everything runs smoothly on the event day. Additionally, for longer events, arrange for periodic maintenance and cleaning to keep the restrooms in top condition. This proactive approach prevents any issues that could arise from heavy use and ensures a pleasant experience for your guests throughout the event.
By avoiding these common mistakes, you can ensure that your guests have a comfortable and pleasant experience at your event. Thoughtful planning and attention to detail in choosing and managing portable restrooms will reflect positively on your event, leaving your guests impressed and satisfied.
