It feels like summer, once it finally arrived, is already flying by, doesn’t it? It seems like just the other day I was putting on an extra sweater because it was still just too chilly out. Then suddenly, like a big, warm, damp blanket, summer arrived in a big way.
Suddenly, school’s out, the carnival’s coming to town, we’re planning yard work and vacations. Maybe the kids are running around, enjoying every moment of their temporary freedom – all the while we’re still doing what we’ve got to do, running the household, going to work like grown-ups d,o because that’s what we do, isn’t it?
Being the adult while so many people are heading to the beach or the pool can be a drag, can’t it? Is there all there is to life? Should we let those kids know what fresh horrors await once they, too, have become adults? Nah. We let them have fun, we join in when we can, and look forward to that wonderful three-day weekend that will be here before we’re ready.
Amidst packing up for a short getaway, wrangling pool floaties and coolers, dropping the young ones off at day camp, or gathering up the camping equipment for next weekend, it’s easy to lose sight of that end-of-summer gem: Labor Day Weekend.
We work hard all year. Even now, fitting in some play and rest time while dealing with the daily grind as the family catches rays and maybe even a little poison ivy. Labor Day Weekend is almost the perfect payoff for keeping our noses to the grindstone all year long.
Picture it: New York City, 1882. The Central Labor Union holds the first Labor Day parade, marching in honor of the workers who keep the world turning. But really, we do make the world go around and should lean in to celebrating our achievements as workers, keeping everything moving along, building our homes and businesses, feeding us, keeping us safe and healthy, and taking care of all the paperwork, too.
By 1894, Labor Day was a federally recognized holiday, falling on the first Monday in September, giving most of us a fleeting last fling with summer, a three-day weekend often celebrated with cookouts, parades, and parties. Make hosting easy with Labor Day luxury restroom trailer rentals or simple backyard porta potty rentals so guests stay comfortable and your home stays clean.
We work hard all year. Time for a little fun!
Events That Call for a Luxury Restroom Trailer
How are you celebrating Labor Day? You’ve started planning, right? Right?
Watch out – she’s got ideas and she’s not afraid to share them with you, dear reader.
Backyard Blowouts
A compact portable restroom trailer rental or backyard porta potty keeps lines short and floors dry.
Fire up the grill and find the bottle opener! Everybody’s coming over for an end-of-summer bash. Brats, steaks, beer, and all those little kids winding their way through the crowd to run through the sprinkler. Picture it, grillin’ and chillin’ with all the best people, bottles clinking together as you savor these last moments of the summer. The neighbor’s kid tugs on your shorts – time for a potty run. As it goes.
Community Picnics or Union BBQs
Scale up with event porta potty rentals plus handwashing stations for high-traffic food areas.
Take that backyard barbeque to another level with an entire block party! Or maybe a company-sponsored Labor Day fest. Unions, too, like to gather their members to observe the day in a particularly American way. It’s a great time, food and drinks flow freely, a good time is had by all, right up until it’s time for a potty run. Nature never takes a vacation day.
Labor Day Weddings & Engagement Parties
Choose a wedding restroom trailer with climate control, running water, and flushable toilets.
For the ambitious and energetic among us, why not combine Labor Day with an entire wedding? Not quite ready? This could be a great weekend for an engagement party, too! With a casual outdoor setting and maybe even the whole cookout theme working into your event planning, it’s only a matter of time before one of your guests needs…you guessed it…a potty run. See a theme here?
Pop-Up Events or Markets
Plan for steady foot traffic with ADA-compliant restroom trailers and mid-day servicing.
If you do any community organizing, seeing the summer off with a pop-up event of some kind seems only natural. You may be considering an art show, mini music fest, end of season farmer’s market, there are so many ways to bring everyone together over this fun long weekend. Add in food and drinks, and your guests and visitors will come and stay awhile. Even longer, if you’ve remembered to factor in those pesky potty runs.
Why a Luxury Lavatory Trailer Makes All the Difference
You may have noticed a theme in all of these festive occasions: the potty run.
But that’s probably why you stopped by today.
You may want to avoid sticky ketchup prints up and down the hallways of your own home. You may have the entire rank and file to feed and accommodate. Wedding guests, block party neighbors, patrons of your art show, or farmer’s market, everyone needs to take care of business sooner or later. Sooner is better. Clean and sanitary, even better.
Clean, air conditioned, with running water and easy access? Bonavita? One moment, please, whilst I fan myself dramatically here.
