Global portable toilet rental market was valued at USD 17.1 million in 2020. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 6.6%) between 2021 and 2028. Portable toilet rentals are more affordable than purchasing units. They also include cleaning and drainage services for an affordable price. Companies offer a variety of portable toilet units for both short-term and long term use, depending on the needs of their customers. The luxury models of portable toilets will see increased demand over the forecast period.
In the near future, portable toilet rental services will be more in demand due to increasing popularity of outdoor and beach weddings, music festivals, and other celebrations. These events require basic sanitation as well as changing and resting areas. This is why luxury portable toilet rentals are becoming more popular.
The popularity of camping is a major outdoor activity for young people. This has led to a rise in demand for portable toilet rental services. Consumer camping trends showed a shift in consumers' desire to try different camping types, such as cabins and recreational vehicles (RVs).
The market for portable toilet rentals is expanding due to the increasing infrastructural development in Asia Pacific. Some of the most important infrastructural projects are the construction of an 850-kilometer-long road in Indonesia, including new sections on the Trans-Sumatran highway. There are also major road and railway projects in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney in Australia. In India, an investment of USD109 billion in roads and highways by 2023 is also in progress. These projects have fueled the demand for portable toilet rental services.
Portable sanitation facilities are a popular choice for the agriculture sector. During harvesting season, portable toilets are used extensively. The demand for fresh fruits, vegetables and other seasonal produce is increasing. This will lead to an increase in the use of portable toilets in harvesting and farming areas.
In 2020, the standard portable toilet segment was dominant and earned 70.9% of the market's revenue. Standard portable toilets include a basic toilet, a holding tank, and some models have separate male urinals. This segment is driven by rising awareness about sanitation and hygiene, improved living standards, and increasing demand from the fast-growing construction industry. The high demand for portable toilet rentals in various areas is due to increasing government initiatives as well as the growing number of NGO events that aim to improve sanitation facilities around the globe.
Many hotels offer add-on services such as outdoor activities and adventure or camping activities that include portable toilet facilities. These trends will drive the rental market for portable toilets during the forecast period.
The demand for high-end portable toilets is increasing due to the rising popularity of outdoor weddings and other social events. Companies are now focusing on high-end sanitation services to meet the increasing demand for outdoor events. Ampot Portable Toilets Inc., for example, offers luxurious restroom trailers that have granite countertops and stainless steel sinks. They also offer soap dispensers and touch-free faucets.
In 2020, the market leader in portable toilet rental was the gravity-based technology segment. This segment had a 45.8% revenue share and led the market. The organizers are seeing a rise in the popularity of outdoor events and festivals, as well as the increasing demand for portable toilet rentals that use gravity technology. A billboard.com report shows that 52.0% of Americans attended at least one outdoor concert or event in 2019. Global music festivals such as Glastonbury and Mayday Dortmund, Isle of Wight and Maifeld Derby in different countries around Europe have also increased the need for portable toilets. These toilets can be easily installed near events to provide quick and convenient hygienic sanitation.
Over the forecast period, the vacuum-based technology segment will experience the fastest CAGR at 7.5%. Consumer awareness about water conservation is driving the demand for portable toilets using vacuum technology. Vacuum toilets require less water than a gravity-based portable bathroom. This is because vacuum toilets are based on flush toilets which use suction to remove waste. This is why there is such a demand for portable toilets with vacuum technology. A standard-sized vacuum toilet uses 0.25 gallons per flush, while a gravity-based model requires 2 gallons. Vacuum toilets also help reduce the cost of portable toilet services, which results in savings because of the reduced amount of water needed for flushing.
Construction dominated the portable toilet rental market and was responsible for the highest revenue share, 59.1% in 2020. Portable toilets are convenient and clean, which makes workers more productive on construction sites. This allows them to spend more time at the site. Portable toilets can be moved to suit workers' needs as the project moves along. There are many factors that influence the need for portable toilets on construction sites. Companies are trying to offer a safer and better environment for their customers and workers, in light of the rising standard of living.
The highest expected CAGR is in the special events segment over the forecast period. Over the past two decades, festivals and live music concerts have been a significant contributor to a country’s economic development. Festivals are used by countries all over the world to promote their country and attract talent. These festivals offer glamping to attendees. People who travel but don't want to stay at the festival for overnight accommodation rely heavily on portable toilets.
Asia Pacific was the dominant market for portable toilet rentals and held the largest revenue share at 44.1% in 2020. The region's growing infrastructure projects will likely increase the use of portable toilets over the forecast period. Japan, for example, plans to establish trade links with other countries under its international Belt and Road Initiative. Residential construction, schools, hotels, and social infrastructure are the main construction sectors in the region. This will likely increase the use of portable toilets in the region by contractors working on construction projects during the forecast period.
One of the main factors driving the global demand for mobile toilets that are vacuum-based is the increasing number of projects within the states. Furthermore, the market for vacuum-based mobile toilets in developing countries like India, China and Indonesia grew 8.9% over the same period. In 2020, USD 20.3 trillion was captured.
To increase their market share, regional players are joining forces with festivals. B & B Portable Toilets in California, U.S.A. offers services at events such as Relay For Life.
