Portable Toilet Fun Facts

Portable toilets were first used in shipyards during World War II. It was noted that valuable time was lost when workers had to walk long distances to use a restroom, so wooden portable restrooms were constructed and placed conveniently on-site.

Over the years, portable restrooms have had many names, such as:

• Portable restroom (our preferred term)
• Porta-potty
• Porta-john
• Honey bucket
• WC (water closet)
• Porta-loo
• Johnny-on-the-spot
• Jon
• Outhouse

What U.S. special event requires the most portable restrooms?
A presidential inauguration — it takes around 5,000 units to serve all attendees.

Portable restrooms have evolved greatly since WWII. Early units were wooden and heavy. Today’s are made from durable synthetics, easier to move and maintain, and specialized for various use cases—from crane-liftable skyscraper models to luxury trailers that rival home bathrooms.
