Overnight means more
The rule of thumb for four hours does not apply to a party from 8 pm to 3 am.
As a starting point, plan one unit per 100 guests for up to four hours. New Year's Eve parties last longer, drinks are served throughout, and at midnight everyone goes at once. So plan considerably more capacity, and put a urinal stand next to the cabins: four places that relieve several cabins at peak times. The requirements calculator takes duration and drinks sales into account.
Cold
Light and fan heater
On 31 December it is dark from 4 pm and often around freezing.
- Light add-on: €10.00 net flat rate on a short-term rental. Without light nobody finds the cabin at midnight.
- Fan heater add-on: €20.00 net flat rate. Keeps the cabin usable in frost, needs power.
- Hand sanitiser: €7.00 net, if the hand-wash station is not to be operated in frost.
- Frost protection in the tank: we take care of that on delivery.
Process
Delivery, cleaning, collection
Delivery is usually the day before, collection after the party.
The short-term rental covers one to five days. If you set up over several days or carry on celebrating on New Year's Day, plan an interim clean by arrangement. Fixed delivery and collection times are agreed in advance, which can involve additional costs. After the rental ends, collection can take up to ten days; over the holidays it is best to expect the upper limit and keep the location clear for that long.
Public New Year's Eve events
At events open to the public, an accessible cabin with a level, lit approach is part of the plan. And with all the fireworks: the cabins stand at a distance from the launch sites and not downwind of them.
Frequently asked questions
How many toilets do I need for a New Year's Eve party with 150 guests?
Because of the duration and the drinks, rather three cabins and a urinal stand than the two that the four-hour rule of thumb would give. With public access, an accessible cabin in addition.
Are the cabins collected on New Year's Day?
Collection takes place after the rental ends and can take up to ten days. Fixed collection dates are agreed in advance.
Does the cabin work at minus ten degrees?
Yes, with frost protection in the tank and the fan heater add-on. The fan heater needs a power connection.
What does a cabin cost for New Year's Eve?
The standard toilet cabin costs €110.00 net flat rate for one to five days, plus €10.00 for light and €20.00 for the fan heater, net. Delivery and collection within the delivery area are included.
