Porta potties are available in a number of shapes, sizes and configurations by which I mean that you can get a trailer with 6 to 7 portable urinals or you can go for single units in the form of a tent if you are setting them up outdoors on the traditional blue or yellow colored box that one sees so commonly at a number of construction sites. These toilets are usually made out of molded plastic and the more expensive ones have been built with the convenience of the user in mind. They have accessories like soap dispensers as well as inbuilt hand driers.
