Job-site servicing
Visits on a fixed weekly schedule, set around the crew's working days.
Scheduled servicing and cleaning of portable toilets across Oklahoma City, set by use, the season and the length of the rental.
Fastest: call (888) 351-0294. Or send this and we call you back.
Servicing keeps a portable toilet clean, stocked and usable for the whole rental. The interval is set by use, the weather and the length of the job, and it is agreed for each site. Every visit is logged. Sites in Oklahoma City have no City-set interval, so the provider and the site agree one that fits the use they expect.
A unit that goes unserviced quickly becomes a problem. The tank fills, the supplies run down and the odor spreads, and in warm weather the change is fast enough to be noticed within a day on a busy site.
The interval is worked out for each site from the people who use it and the season. A crew of four and a crowd of several hundred fill a unit at very different rates, and a unit in full sun fills faster than one in the shade.
Every visit empties the tank, rinses the unit, restocks the supplies the rental includes and checks the door, the lock and the vent. The visit is logged so the site can see when the last visit happened.
Keep cleaning supplies and waste out of the reach of the public, and do not leave the service vehicle running on a busy street. Check the unit's door and lock after each visit.
Set the schedule for the site from the expected use, the season and the length of the rental.
The unit is emptied, rinsed and stocked on each visit, with the door, lock and vent checked.
Ask for an extra visit when the crowd is larger than expected or the weather is hot.
Record the date and time of each visit so the site lead can see the schedule and spot a missed one.
Keep the route for the service vehicle clear, so a visit is not lost to a parked car or a blocked drive.
The interval depends on the use, the weather and the length of the rental, and it is agreed for each site.
A unit used by a few people on a mild week can go several days between visits. A unit used by a crew through a hot week may need a visit every day, and the site lead should watch the unit and ask for a change if it fills faster than the schedule expects.
There is no City figure for the interval, so the schedule is a judgment made by the provider and the site together.
The tank is emptied, the unit is rinsed, the supplies are restocked, and the door, lock, vent and seat are checked.
The emptied waste goes to a permitted wastewater treatment facility under the Oklahoma septage rules, which are set out on the septage page. The provider keeps the record of each visit.
Any damage is recorded, and a repair is arranged before the next user.
The site contact calls the provider, which arranges a visit as soon as the route allows, and the missed visit is logged.
The usual reasons for a missed visit are a blocked drive, a storm that closes the road or a site that is not expecting the truck. A clear route and a phone call when the plan changes prevent most of them.
The log shows each missed visit, so the schedule can be changed if the same problem keeps happening.
Heat speeds the filling and the odor, and an event with a long day and a crowd changes the use from hour to hour.
The schedule for a hot week is tighter than for a cool one, and the schedule for a festival day is tighter than for an ordinary day.
The provider adjusts the schedule when the forecast or the event plan changes.
The visit is planned to take the least time on the unit, with the tank emptied first, the supplies restocked and the door and vent checked last, so the unit is ready as the crew leaves it.
A busy day needs a fast visit, and a checklist kept on the vehicle keeps the sequence the same on every unit.
The visit is logged before the vehicle leaves the spot, so the record is complete even if the next stop is delayed.
The site lead reports the shortfall to the provider in writing, asks for a revised schedule, and keeps the report with the log so the change is traceable.
A schedule that falls behind use is fixed by adding visits, not by hoping the unit lasts, and the log shows when the change was made.
A repeated shortfall suggests the count is too low, and the site should ask for a review of the count as well as the schedule.
Visits on a fixed weekly schedule, set around the crew's working days.
Visits timed to the event's hours, with extra visits before the crowd and after the peak.
