Is wedding toilet hire really worth it?

Hiring toilets for a wedding can be an essential consideration for guest comfort and overall event success. But is wedding toilet hire really worth it? We break it down.

Why consider wedding toilet hire?

If your wedding is at a hotel, banquet hall, or similar venue, there are likely to be permanent toilet facilities onsite. However, for outdoor weddings, barn weddings, or locations without adequate facilities, hiring toilets for your wedding can be crucial. Here’s why:

Guest comfort and experience

Nothing can ruin an event faster than long queues for the toilet or substandard facilities. If your wedding venue lacks sufficient toilets, guests may feel uncomfortable and frustrated. Luxury toilet hire ensures that your guests have easy access to clean, well-maintained facilities, allowing them to enjoy the event without worry.

Compliance with regulations

Depending on the number of guests, you may be required to provide additional toilet facilities. Many wedding venues have regulations regarding toilet-to-guest ratios, and failing to meet these standards could lead to logistical issues. Hiring toilets ensures you comply with health and safety regulations, while our portable disabled toilet supports accessibility and inclusion.

Protecting the venue’s facilities

If your wedding is at a private estate or in a marquee on a large property, existing permanent facilities may be insufficient. Overuse can lead to plumbing problems or long queueing times. Luxury portable toilet hire prevents unnecessary strain on existing facilities.

Are there any downsides to wedding toilet hire?

At JB Events, we have been supplying toilet hire for weddings for over 20 years and have listened to what concerns people most when organising a wedding. It is important to ask us anything that you’re not sure about and our FAQs cover important questions. We would also suggest the following be considered:

Space and setup - strategic positioning at the venue, particularly on a large site, is important to ensure that all guests can access toilets without having to walk or wait too long. Our experienced staff can advise on the best position for the units on your site. If there is insufficient access to power supplies in your chosen spot, we can help you to arrange generator hire too. 

Maintenance and cleaning requirements - to ensure that guests are always met by scrupulously clean and well-stocked toilets, we can advise on attendant hire. This means the facilities will always be clean and your guests will never run out of toilet paper! At the end of the hire period, we will collect the units and empty them before transporting all waste for ethical disposal.
