You'll find answers to our most common questions here. If you have a question we haven't answered, just get in touch. We'll be happy to help you out.
We'd like to hire a portaloo for an outdoor wedding. Is it our responsibility to keep it clean during the event?
It is. To assist with cleanliness, we usually recommend hiring one portaloo for males and one for females. If there are already limited toilet facilities on site, most of our clients allocate the portaloo to male guests.
How much does it cost to hire a portaloo?
Pricing varies depending on the site location and number of units required. Long term hire is quoted weekly which includes cleaning and replacement of consumables.
What is your service/delivery region?
We deliver Auckland wide. We go as far South as the Bombay Hills, and all the way up to Mangawhai in the North.
Do you do last minute hire?
Yes, just give us a call.
What if we need our portaloo for longer than anticipated? How easy is it to extend our existing hire agreement?
Our hire agreements are open-ended. You can keep the portaloo on-hire for as long as you need.
What happens if we encounter any technical issues with the portaloo?
Just call or email our office and we will get someone out to your site on the same day.
Do all of your units have hand basins?
Yes, all of our units have freshwater hand basins with an antibacterial soap dispenser. Both the hand basin and toilet flush are controlled with a foot pump, making them hands-free.
Do we need council consent to have a portaloo on our worksite, or at our event?
No consent is required for your worksite. However, the council has rules around where portaloos are to be placed on the site, which we can help you with. The council may specify how many portaloos your event needs as a consent condition.
Do you also hire temporary fencing?
Yes, we can provide temporary fencing for your construction site or event.
Are your toilets environmentally friendly?
Blue Loos strives to abide by our own stringent environmentally-focused policies. All of our portaloos have a separate freshwater tank, which limits the use of chemical treatment and waste.
Do you have an additional charges schedule?
Yes we do, please see it here
