History of portable toilet rentals

Portable toilets, or more familiarly porta potties, port o johns or portable restrooms have been around for many years. In the beginning, when someone needed temporary toilet facilities they would build an outhouse. This meant building a wooden shed and digging a deep hole in the ground. As laws protecting the environment evolved outhouses fell out of favor. The first portable toilet rentals were wooden porta potty buildings with half of a barrel used to hold the waste. These port o lets were difficult to transport and keep clean. Pretty soon the port o john rental industry attracted manufacturers who created plastic or fiberglass port-o-lets for rental companies.

These new materials made the portable toilet rental business much easier for companies and much better for people who needed the service. The porta johns were easier to move from one location to another and the smooth surfaces were easily cleaned. Porta potties available for rental today are much nicer than the early crude portable toilets. Portable restrooms for rent today have modern styling and improved ventilation. Doors close with a spring and have a privacy latch. Many are equipped with hand sanitizer.
