Porta Potty Rental for Golf Tournaments in Phoenix

A charity golf tournament with 500 players and guests over 6 hours comes out at about 7 units on the PSAI chart. Course restrooms help, but spreading flushing units or trailers around the course is what keeps players moving.

Courses spread people out. Place units at turns and on far holes, not just by the clubhouse.

Upscale events often choose flushing units or a restroom trailer near the hospitality tent.
