Summer in Vermont means busy weekends packed with fairs, farmers’ markets, backyard weddings, and family reunions. You're booking tents, organizing food, planning entertainment—but what about the bathrooms?


Trust us, when nature calls, your guests will remember whether you answered.


At Taplin Septic, we know that comfort and cleanliness can make or break an outdoor event. That’s why we offer a range of portable toilet options for every kind of gathering—from casual to classy. Here's how to keep things fresh when you're hosting outside.


Why Portable Toilets Matter for Summer Events

Outdoor events often lack access to permanent facilities, and long restroom lines or poor sanitation can leave guests frustrated. Quality portable toilets offer:

  • Clean, private spaces
  • Handwashing and hygiene support
  • Accessibility for guests of all ages
  • Compliance with local event regulations


Whether it’s a 50-person potluck or a 500-guest wedding, proper facilities show your guests you’ve thought of everything.

How Many Portable Toilets Do You Need?

Add more if:

  • You’re serving food or alcohol
  • The event runs longer
  • You want to avoid lines

We’re happy to help you estimate your ideal number based on guest count, event length, and layout.
