Restroom Structure Report

The third annual Parks & Rec Business Restroom Structure Report.

We recently sent out surveys to companies who provide restroom structures to parks and recreation professionals. Here you'll find a breakdown of each company's offerings into products available; whether the companies surveyed provide products that are plumbed, waterless or both; structure materials; vandalism and graffiti resistance features; whether they're pre-fabricated, assembled on-site or both; ADA-compliance features, whether the companies provide single, double, multi-use restrooms; whether the company provides restroom-only, showers or multi-use facilities; environmental considerations; site requirements; options; warranty policies; design/engineering services offered and contact information.

We'll publish an annual update each year to keep you informed of changes and upgrades. Your input is valuable and we invite you to let us know if there's any other information we can help provide.
