About the toilet servicing

Portable‑toilet servicing is currently completed on one scheduled day each week, although this may vary as the business grows and operational requirements change.

The work involves using purpose‑built vacuum equipment to empty waste tanks, followed by cleaning, sanitising and restocking each unit. Training, procedures and job‑specific PPE are provided.
