Placement Tips for Construction Sites

• Place units near active work zones to reduce worker downtime.

• Keep units away from heavy equipment swing paths.
• Ensure service truck access for pumping & maintenance.
• Use **mobile** or **hi-rise** units where fixed units are impractical.

Pottys Plus can schedule cleanings based on site activity:

• Weekly cleaning (standard for most sites)
• Twice weekly for large or messy crews
• Custom schedules based on shift length or environmental conditions
• Restocking of toilet paper, sanitizer, deodorizer
