How many portable restrooms do I need for a wedding?

For a standard 4-6 hour wedding with alcohol, we recommend 1 restroom stall per 50 guests. For luxury trailers, a 2-stall unit typically serves up to 100-150 guests comfortably.

Do luxury restroom trailers need power and water hookups?

Yes. Luxury trailers require a standard 110v electrical outlet and a garden hose connection (within 50 feet). If your venue is off-grid, you can rent a generator from a third-party supplier, and we can fill the onboard freshwater tanks (note: tanks have a limited flush capacity compared to a hose).

What is the difference between a VIP unit and a standard porta potty?

A VIP unit features a foot-pump flushing toilet (waste is hidden), a built-in handwash sink, a mirror, and a shelf. Standard units generally have a static tank and hand sanitizer.

How far in advance should I book wedding restrooms in NJ?

For peak wedding season (May, June, September, October), we recommend booking 6-9 months in advance. Luxury trailer inventory is limited and books up quickly.

Q: Does serving alcohol affect how many restrooms I need?

Yes. The 'rule of thumb' increases by 15-20% when an open bar is present. Alcohol is a diuretic, increasing restroom usage frequency. If you are on the borderline between a 2-stall and 3-stall trailer, always size up for open bar weddings to prevent lines.

Don't let a restroom line ruin the reception. Use this rule of thumb for events serving alcohol:

Base Rule: 1 Stall per 50 Guests.
Duration: Add 20% capacity if the event exceeds 5 hours.
Alcohol: Open bars increase usage by ~20%.

Example: A 150-person wedding with an open bar needs at least 3 stalls (e.g., a 3-stall trailer or 3-4 VIP units).

🚫 Logistics: The Stuff No One Tells You

Luxury trailers are large vehicles that require specific site conditions. To avoid day-of disasters, review these requirements with your venue manager or tent coordinator:

🔌 Power Requirements

Standard: Most trailers need (1) to (3) dedicated 20-amp circuits (standard household plugs).

The Trap: Don't plug the trailer into the same circuit as the DJ or catering ovens, or you will trip a breaker during the reception.

Solution: We do not provide generators. You can rent whisper-quiet generators from local equipment suppliers if dedicated power isn't available.

💧 Water Source

Standard: A standard garden hose spigot within 50 feet of the trailer location.

The Trap: Low water pressure can mean weak flushes.

Important Note: For remote locations (fields, beaches), we utilize onboard freshwater holding tanks. Please note that onboard tanks have a limited flush capacity. A continuous garden hose connection provides unlimited water supply.

🚛 Delivery Access

Clearance: We need 12-13 feet of vertical clearance (watch out for low tree branches!).

Ground: Placement must be on level ground. Asphalt or gravel is best; dry grass is okay. We cannot place trailers on soft mud or steep inclines.

🏡 Backyard Wedding Survival Guide

Hosting a wedding at a private residence in NJ? Don't overlook these critical details:

Septic Safety: Do NOT let 100 guests use your home's bathroom. A septic system isn't designed for that volume in 4 hours. Renting a trailer protects your home plumbing.
Insurance (COI): Vendors working on your property should carry liability insurance. Pottys Plus is fully insured and can provide a COI upon request.
Permits: Most private property rentals do not require a permit, but some NJ townships have rules for temporary structures. Check with your local clerk if the trailer will be visible from the street.

🎀 The Hospitality Basket Checklist

Want to impress your guests? Place a small basket of amenities in the restroom trailer. Here is what we recommend including:

✅ Mints / Gum
✅ Hair Spray / Dry Shampoo
✅ Safety Pins / Sewing Kit
✅ Stain Remover Pen
✅ Band-Aids
✅ Deodorant
✅ Hand Lotion
✅ Tissues

☀️ NJ Seasonal Planning: AC vs. Heat

New Jersey weather is unpredictable. Our luxury fleets are equipped to handle the swing from humid Jersey Shore afternoons to crisp Hunterdon County evenings.

Summer Weddings (June – August)

The Challenge: High humidity and heat (85°F+).

The Fix: All our luxury trailers feature climate-controlled Air Conditioning. It provides guests a cool respite from the outdoor heat, protecting hair and makeup.

Fall Weddings (September – November)

The Challenge: Warm days dropping to 40-50°F at night.

The Fix: Our units have built-in heating systems. As the sun goes down and the party heats up, we ensure the restroom remains a comfortable temperature.

📅 Day-Of Service Timeline: What to Expect

Unlike standard construction rentals, wedding deliveries are white-glove services. Here is a typical timeline:

1-2 Days Prior: Delivery and Setup. We level the unit, connect power/water, and test all systems (A/C, lights, flush).
Wedding Day Morning: Final check by your planner/site contact. Ensure the unit is unlocked and pathways are clear.
During Event: Unit runs on auto-pilot. If you hired an attendant, they will arrive ~1 hour before start time to prep.
Post-Event: Pickup is typically scheduled for the following Monday or next business day to avoid weekend overtime fees (unless venue requires immediate removal).

💰 What Affects Rental Pricing?

We believe in transparent quoting. While every event is unique, these four factors will influence your final quote:

1. Duration: Is this a one-day rental or a full weekend (Friday rehearsal + Sunday brunch)?
2. Delivery Window: Weekend or late-night pickups may incur additional labor costs compared to Monday pickups.
3. Attendant Services: Hiring a dedicated attendant to clean/restock during the event ensures a VIP experience but adds labor hours.
4. Power/Water Add-ons: Filling water tanks for off-grid sites adds a small service fee.

Common Questions (Q&A)

Do luxury restroom trailers typically need electricity?

Yes. Luxury trailers need power for lights, pumps, and A/C. We require a dedicated 20-amp circuit via extension cord (within 50ft) or a generator. Note: We do not provide generators, but you can rent them from local suppliers.

Does serving alcohol affect how many restrooms I need?

Yes. The "rule of thumb" increases by 15-20% when an open bar is present. Alcohol is a diuretic, increasing restroom usage frequency. If you are on the borderline between a 2-stall and 3-stall trailer, always size up for open bar weddings to prevent lines.

What is the difference between a Porta Potty and a VIP unit?

A standard porta potty typically has a static tank. A VIP Flushable Unit uses a foot pump to flush waste away from sight and includes a sink, making it much more hygienic and pleasant for formal attire.

Can you place the restroom trailer on grass?

Yes, as long as the ground is firm and level. We avoid muddy areas to prevent getting stuck or damaging the turf. We can also place them on pavement, gravel, or driveways.

Do you offer restroom attendant services?

Yes. For large weddings, we recommend hiring an attendant to keep the restrooms stocked, clean, and fresh throughout the reception.
