Quick Answers
How many portable toilets should I plan for an event?
A common initial planning benchmark is about one portable toilet per 50 people for roughly a four-hour event, but actual needs vary with event length, attendance, alcohol service, existing restrooms, accessibility needs, and provider guidance.
Are hand sanitizer and handwashing stations the same thing?
No. Hand sanitizer can be useful for general hygiene, but it is not universally equivalent to a handwashing setup where handwashing is required. Food preparation or service may involve separate requirements.
Can portable toilets be placed anywhere on a site?
No. Placement should account for a level and stable area, drainage, safe pedestrian access, accessibility planning where applicable, service-truck access, and separation from vehicle or equipment hazards.
