Provide accessible facilities to create inclusive events and work sites. Whether you’re organizing a wedding, overseeing a construction project, or planning a community event, knowing renting a portable restroom is essential. To make the rental process easier, we’ve created a list of four ways to make sure your porta potties are accessible and ADA-compliant.
Understanding ADA Regulations
Knowing and understanding the guidelines set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is the first step to making sure you are on the right track. The ADA outlines that handicapped porta-potty must be available to ensure events are accessible to everyone. However, compliance is not solely about meeting legal requirements; it’s about providing dignity and convenience to all attendees of your gatherings. Think of it as the foundation of building a welcoming space for everyone.
Selecting the Right Porta Potty
Once you understand the ADA, make sure to choose one of our portable toilets that meets its standards. Look for units with features like ground-level entry, spacious interiors, and handrails. These specifics aren’t perks; they’re necessities for accessibility. And when you are weighing your options, remember that not all portable restrooms are created equal—choose only those that are designed with inclusivity in mind.
Placement and Accessibility
A porta potty is not accessible if people cannot get to it. Position your porta potties on flat surfaces with easy access from pathways. Place accessible restrooms in visible and easy-to-find locations. Make sure paths are clear and ramps are provided if necessary. This thoughtful placement can make the difference between a convenient experience and a challenging one.
Maintenance and Upkeep
Make sure to perform regular checks and cleanings to keep your facilities in tip-top shape. It’s not just about hygiene; it’s about maintaining accessibility features. Regular maintenance guarantees your restrooms stay accessible and compliant, keeping your facilities welcoming for all guests. After all, no one likes a dirty restroom.
