When a portable restroom rental is too small for the crowd, guests end up waiting in long lines, and the units run short of supplies well before the day is over. The company uses a simple guideline to prevent that. One unit covers about 50 guests at an event that lasts up to four hours. Longer events and events that serve alcohol need more units. On construction sites, the usual figure is one unit for every 10 workers on a 40-hour week. The fleet includes regular units, deluxe flush units, construction toilets approved by the Ministry of Labour and barrier-free accessible models. For weddings, the Signature Port-A-John is 24 percent larger than a standard unit and includes a sink with running water, a mirror, soap and paper towel dispensers, and a urinal.

"We like to talk numbers with customers early, because the right count makes the whole day easier for everyone on site," said a company spokesperson. "Most people are glad to have a figure to work from. Once we know the headcount and the hours, we can put the order together and plan the service visits around it."

Service continues for the full length of every rental. Long-term rentals receive regular cleaning and restocking, and construction sites are usually serviced once a week. Delivery reaches communities within 80 to 100 kilometres of North Bay, and same-day or next-day delivery is often possible when units are available. The company suggests reserving two to three weeks before a standard event and allowing more notice for large gatherings between May and October.
