Essential Facilities for Outdoor Events

Whether you’re hosting a small gathering or a large scale event, there are certain facilities that are essential to making it a success. From hireable items like temporary fencing and lighting, to the more practical considerations like toilets and power, this guide from SRP Hire Solutions has got you covered.

Temporary event fencing

When it comes to hiring facilities, there are plenty of options available to suit your needs and budget. For example, hire solutions companies such as SRP Hire Solutions offer a range of temporary fencing options, perfect for cordoning off areas or creating a safe perimeter. Temporary fencing is essential for larger events where areas need to be separated and crowds need to be managed.

Helping to manage and organise an event, temporary fencing can be hired in a number of different quantities. This depends on the size of your event, the number of people attending and the square footage of your event space. It is best to measure your event area and plan the number of guests before ordering your temporary event fencing. This planning will ensure you have enough to cover the area.

Event Toilets

Toilets are another essential consideration for any outdoor event. You will find hire facility companies can provide a range of different toilet hire options, from standard porta-potties to luxury loos complete with air conditioning, heating, and music. Having enough toilet facilities for the expected number of attendees is vital for ensuring the health and safety of your event. Be sure to prepare, taking into consideration your ticket sales and predicted attendance figure.

With so many options available, you do not have to choose from simple porta-loos, instead luxury toilet trailers are available to hire in a number of different sizes and designs. These range from small trailers with two ladies toilets, one men’s toilet and a urinal, to longer trailers with four ladies’ toilets, two gents toilets, and three urinals as well as full length mirrors in the hand wash areas.

For extra special events, you may even wish to hire luxury shower trailers. Perfect for weekend festival and VIP areas, shower trailers will offer your guests a clean and hygienic space to freshen up during your event.

Powering an outdoor event

While all of this sounds great, one major consideration is how will you power your outdoor event. In a field or outdoor area with limited access to electricity and gas, it is vital you hire a power source that is suitable for powering the size of your event.

Options for doing this include hiring a generator. Generators can supply energy for a range of needs, from cooking to lighting and heating. They can be hired in a number of sizes to meet the needs of any outdoor event, no matter the size.
