How many washes does a station provide?

Portable Hand Wash Station Rental units typically feature a 20-gallon fresh water capacity. This capacity provides approximately 300 individual hand washes per fill cycle before requiring service. Service intervals ensure consistent water availability for high-traffic zones maintaining strict Site Hygiene Protocols.

Are hand wash stations required for construction?

OSHA 1926.51 Compliance mandates accessible washing facilities for employees working with contaminants or paints. These mandates require soap, potable water, and single-use towels to be immediately available. Availability prevents ingestion of hazardous materials and promotes general worker health.

Do wash stations use chemical water?

Hand Wash Stations operate using fresh water exclusively, distinct from the Chemical Recirculating System utilized in portable toilets. This system dispenses clean water via a foot pump to ensure sanitary washing. Sanitary washing generates gray water which is captured in a separate sealed waste tank.

How is the water kept fresh?

Gray water accumulation requires regular pumping to prevent odors, similar to [How we maintain tank freshness](/guides/odor-control-biocides) in standard restrooms. Tank freshness relies on scheduled removal of used water and restocking of soap and paper towels. Restocking occurs weekly or bi-weekly depending on user volume.

Can hand wash stations freeze in winter?

Freezing temperatures pose operational risks for standard water-based sanitation units. Operational risks require the addition of specialized saline solutions or heater placement to maintain fluid viscosity. Fluid viscosity maintenance ensures the foot pump mechanism functions correctly during sub-zero conditions.

Where should hand wash stations be placed?

Unit placement relies on flat, stable ground accessible by service trucks for pumping and refilling. Pumping access allows technicians to reach the unit within 25 feet of the vehicle. Vehicle proximity ensures efficient servicing without disrupting site operations or blocking pathways.

Hand Wash Stations That Work for Ann Arbor's Events and Job Sites

We needed hand wash stations for a Main Street pop-up market last minute after our original vendor fell through. Tree Town Sanitation got us two units delivered to the Diag within four hours. Their crew even filled the tanks and gave us a quick rundown on the foot pumps. It was a lifesaver.

Maria Chen, Downtown Association

Portable Hand Wash Station Rental

Our crew was working on a tight infill project in the Old Fourth Ward, and the building's water wasn't hooked up yet. Aisha's team dropped off a station that morning, and it ran flawlessly for three weeks in some cold snaps. The heated water option was a game-changer for the guys.
