Luxury Restrooms In The NW: Doing It The Right Way

We started out searching for better restrooms for our wedding, and now we’re the largest provider of luxury restrooms in the entire Northwest. And besides being the Northwest’s leader in service area and fleet size, we also take pride in leading the industry in sustainable green practices, ADA-compliance, staff training and certification, licensing and permitting, and protecting our clients’ privacy.

A Leader In Eco-Friendliness And Sustainability

Folks in the NW care about the environment, and we’re no different. We take pride in our commitment to being a leader in green, sustainable practices. From trailers to techniques to toilet paper, we’re the leaders in environmentally responsible rental restrooms.

We’re Actually Conserving Water

It starts with our custom-designed restroom trailers: each flush is only 0.33 gallons, compared to ordinary toilets, which consume a wasteful 1.5 gallons per flush. In fact, portable restrooms save 45 billion gallons of fresh water every year!

Only Approved Deodorizer Enzymes and Techniques

Add to that our use of environmentally friendly chemicals and techniques approved by the internationally recognized PSAI (Portable Sanitation Association International) — more on them later — and we have less impact on the environment than you do at home.

Making Events Accessible To Everyone — It’s The Law

You’ve heard of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), which covers everything from access to signage and helps ensure that events are accessible to everyone who wants to attend.

And true compliance is not just about access ramps: our fully ADA-compliant restroom trailers are the only ones in the Northwest. Ask us to show you; even the interiors are specifically designed for use by those in wheelchairs.

Certification By The PSAI Industry Group

We’re proud members of PSAI, the group that sets the professional standards and certifies portable restroom firms and employees. We have adopted all PSAI best practices and recommendations in our business.

Fully Licensed And Permitted Throughout Oregon And Washington

Privy Chambers is registered in both Oregon and Washington,and licensed to pump our own trailers throughout the Northwest. We believe that strict compliance with all licensing laws shows our commitment to safety, the environment, and our industry’s best practices.

Committed To Your Privacy And Data Security

You may have noticed a number of websites asking you to confirm acceptance of their privacy policies or cookie collection. That’s in response to a new law from Europe that took effect in late May, called GDPR (that, believe it or not, does apply in the US), which sets stringent requirements on data privacy and protection.

Because we are committed to being an industry leader in protecting your personal information, too, we have just completed updating both our websites with new Privacy Policies as well as tools that site visitors can use to delete any personally-identifiable data that we have collected. We also notify every user once a year of our cookie collection policy.

Working With The Best Vendors Saves You Money

At Privy Chambers, our devotion to being a leader in best practices, including sustainability, accessibility, licensing, and permitting, can actually save you money — not to mention make for a vendor you can trust with your most critical events.

Besides the effect on your event of a service disappointment, if one of your vendors isn’t fully licensed or does not have the correct permits in place, your business may face liability that you just can’t afford.

If you have any questions about a vendor, be sure to verify if they are licensed. When you choose Privy Chambers, you can be assured that we are fully licensed and certified to do the job right the first time and every time — and we are happy to show our credentials to you!

Let the Countdown Begin: Planning a New Year’s Eve Wedding

A New Year’s Eve wedding is absolutely a night for any couple to remember forever and an excellent date to gather all the friends together year after year to celebrate the big anniversary! With so many event planning options already folded into the day of celebration for the new year, we have compiled a few tips and tricks to planning a flawless New Year’s Eve Wedding. All the standards come into play such as the dress, the flowers, the guest list, but important consideration is needed for the venue, the views, the catering and drink menus, and of course the after-party transportation for getting family and friends home safely!

A New Year’s Eve Wedding is the perfect new beginning for the couple looking to come into the new year with just the right ‘spark!’

The Venue: Preferably with a View!

Unless you have the budget to put on your own pyrotechnics display of fireworks spelling out the names of the bride and groom in flash bangs and whirly whoos, the perfect venue for a New Year’s Eve Wedding is typically going to be downtown with a view of the city fireworks display. Both the City of Seattle and the City of Portland put on fabulous displays with plenty of downtown venues sitting front and center for the perfect view of show. Spaces on holiday weekends typically get snapped up pretty quickly and often have returning clients for year after year celebrations so make sure to start the hunt early and don’t be afraid to ask lots of questions about visibility of the fireworks. We also recommend checking out the venue both in the day time and in the evening once the sun has set to get a true feel of venue.

Venues Continued: Winter Weather Prep

As with any winter wedding, extra attention needs to paid to the venue amenities such as heating, lighting, and restrooms. The good news, if you find the perfect venue with all the views in the world but they are lacking in the foundation items such as heat and restrooms – fear not! Each of these options can be brought to your location including restrooms! Luxury Restroom Trailers by Privy Chambers have both compact and oversized options for all guest list sizes and most options will even fit through the bay doors of large warehouses for downtown locations bringing the restrooms INSIDE! With the long night of celebrating, your guests will certainly appreciate a fabulous place to “go!”

Timing: Midnight Nuptials

Hoping for a wedding exactly at midnight? Be sure to plan well! You’ll need a fool proof strategy to get all your guests seated, paying attention, and ready for vows. If you want the “I Do’s” to happen exactly at midnight, best to do several practice runs to see how long the lead up takes and be sure to have some “hurry up” tactics in case of running late. Just for good measure, have a few stalling tactics saved up your sleeve as well in case the excitement gets you ahead of schedule. It’s a specific day with a specific time and you want it to be perfect!

Food & Drink Menus: The Important Stuff!

Food and beverages on a night such as New Year’s Eve are one of the most crucial components – balance without overdoing it! For a New Year’s Eve Wedding celebration, the festivities will likely be starting later in the evening – especially if you are planning for midnight nuptials. With this in mind, a full dinner course may be overkill but keep the appetizers flowing if drinks will be served to be sure your guests make it to the end of the night. Themed hors d’oeuvres such as Ball Drop Cake Pops and the infamous Champaign Fountain are a sure hit for any New Year’s celebration!

The Party Is Over: Get Home Safe!

With any late night celebration, and especially on a day so many celebrate such as New Year’s Eve, you want to be sure EVERYONE gets home safe and sound. Having accommodations downtown nearby the venue are the best solution to getting home safe. If a trip across town is necessary, hiring a car service, having a taxi company alerted to a large crown leaving the area at a certain time, or having an “Uber Waiting Station” set up outside the venue are excellent ways to show your guests how much you appreciate them celebrating your special day. Their safety is your top concern!

A New Year’s Eve Wedding is the perfect date to get family and friends together to celebrate a day of new beginnings. Lots of planning is best as the popular date is in high demand for venues, caterers, and hot spot views of fireworks across the city. Don’t forget about special accommodations for downtown venues such as restrooms, heat, and lighting for the flawless night you and yours will remember for a lifetime!

Happy New Years from the whole team at Luxury Restroom Trailers by Privy Chambers!!
