With Easter come and gone, it’s time for portable sanitation contractors to think more seriously about final planning for their biggest summer special events. Whether it’s a state or county fair, music festival or NASCAR race weekend, these supersized events can stretch your staff and restroom inventory to their limits. But while challenging, these big events are clearly important revenue generators to supplement to the daily route work that puts food on the table all year round.
Over the years, we’ve highlighted many special events through our On Location features in the magazine mailed to you and read here online. We enjoy talking to PROs about how they handle the details of big events, year in and year out, and how they adjust or add to their inventory to continue to serve their customers well. With each year, it seems like more customers are asking for specialty equipment for events, whether it’s accessories like fencing, tents or screening, or maybe a high-end restroom trailer to serve a VIP area.
Is there an upcoming event that is a big source of pride for you, your staff and your community in general? Drop me an email and tell me about the big event in your backyard, and maybe we’ll bring your town and your team some national attention through an On Location feature story. You can reach me at editor@promonthly.com.
