"Smelt fresh as a daisy and had a night light inside." That review from SCR Class still gets passed around the depot.

It is the two things that matter at an end-of-year do. A unit that is properly clean, and a light inside so nobody is fumbling around after dark. That is the standard on every event booking we send out.

Our event portaloos are a dedicated fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned and sanitised before every hire, with internal LED lighting, a mirror, soap and hand wash, and the paper stocked.

One unit is $88 inc. GST for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery. Booking two or more for the same venue? We take 20% off each additional portaloo, and delivery is charged once for the whole lot.

Here is how the job splits. We supply the galvanised pole and the foundation cage, with the bolts pre-set to the certified spec. Your builder or concreter digs the hole and pours the footing to that spec. Once the footing has cured, our crew comes out with the gear and stands the pole.

Our licensed electricians lodge the Connect Application and the Electrical Work Request with Energex on your behalf. Your electrician runs the cable from the pole to the house, and your retailer books the meter.

So the pole half of the job has one supplier behind it, not three. Ask for a fixed-price quote at the link in the comments.

Family-run since 1960.

How many portaloos does your event need? Here is the rule of thumb we use.

For a short event of under four hours, where people mostly stay put, plan on one portaloo per 50 guests. For a long one of over six hours with the drinks flowing, plan on one per 25. Council guidelines set the formal minimums, and we can walk you through those too.

An event portaloo is $88 inc. GST for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery. Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo, with delivery charged once.

Every unit comes from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, lit inside, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked, and about 300 flushes in each.

Ordering a permanent power pole with a meter box? Ours is wired before it leaves the depot.

Add a meter box to a permanent pole and our licensed electricians wire it on the pole at our depot, before delivery. The pole arrives ready to stand, and there is no second visit to fit the box on site. The photo is one of ours going in, box open for the final connections.

The rest of the job splits the same way as always. We supply the galvanised pole and the foundation cage, lodge the Connect Application and the Electrical Work Request with Energex, and our own crew installs the pole once your footing has cured. Your concreter pours the footing to our spec. Your electrician runs the cable from the pole to the house.

One fixed-price quote covers our half. Ask for it at the link in the comments.

Family-run since 1960.

Event portaloo hire in Brisbane for fundraisers, fun runs and community days: $88 inc. GST per unit for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery.

Running a fundraiser this spring? Plan on one portaloo per 50 guests for a short event, and one per 25 if it runs past six hours with the drinks flowing. The more people you get through the gate, the more it matters.

Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo. Delivery is charged once, however many come on the truck.

Dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, internal lighting, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked. About 300 flushes in each.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay. Family-run since 1960. Date, venue and expected crowd to the link in our bio.

Running the club break-up or the school end-of-year do? Sort the toilets before the sausages.

Presentation nights, P&C fetes, the last session of the season. They end up on the oval, at the park or in someone's backyard, and the toilet block is locked or too far away.

An event portaloo is $88 inc. GST for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery. Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo, with delivery charged once.

Every unit is from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, lit inside, mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked.

Slab booked for January? Set the site up before you knock off for the year.

Every new build needs power and a toilet from day one. Book the two together on our Site Setup Bundle and the hire comes down.

The bundle prices the two minimum hires at $729 ex GST, with standard-zone delivery from $490 ex GST. That saves $81 against booking the pole and the portaloo separately.

In it: a 63A stayed site pole for its 12-week minimum, with the Energex paperwork lodged by us, and a builders portaloo for its 4-week minimum, with fortnightly servicing included.

Give us the address and the week you want it on site, and it is one less thing to sort in January.

Family-run since 1960.

Event portaloo hire in Brisbane for the work Christmas party: $88 inc. GST per unit for the 4-day minimum hire, plus $154 delivery.

The venue is booked, the caterer is booked, and then someone asks about toilets. If the party is in a shed, a yard, a park or the car park out the back, that is us.

Book two or more for the same venue and we take 20% off each additional portaloo. Delivery is charged once for the whole booking.

Every unit comes from our dedicated event fleet, never used on construction sites. Deep-cleaned, internal lighting, a mirror, soap and hand wash, paper stocked.

Locking the site up over Christmas? A hired camera watches it while the crew is off.

Plenty of builds go quiet over the break. The gear stays. A site camera records around the clock and you check it from your phone. It runs on 4G, so it needs no site internet. Motion alerts pick out people and vehicles and ignore the wind.

The standalone solar camera pole in the photo runs off the grid, about $100 a week ex GST on the 12-week minimum hire, plus $390 ex GST delivery in the standard zone. Already have one of our temporary power poles on site? A camera mounted on it is about $69 a week ex GST on the same minimum.

Twelve weeks is the minimum hire. Put it up in November and it is still recording in January, break included.

Brisbane, Logan, Redlands, Ipswich and Moreton Bay from our Capalaba depot. Further out, ask us.

Family-run since 1960.

Cheers, Doug
