Method and limitations
Figures are generated directly from the 98 UK supplier listings in this directory and refresh hourly. Suppliers removed during moderation are excluded. France is listed separately and is not included in the UK figures.
These are directory figures, not market figures. They describe the suppliers we list, not the UK portable toilet hire trade as a whole, which is larger. Treat a percentage here as “x% of listed suppliers”, never “x% of the industry”.
Unit counts come from each supplier’s own published range, so a supplier who lists their fleet in detail counts for more units than one who lists a single example. Coverage counts come from the service areas each supplier states, so a nationwide operator may name few counties while serving all of them. Ratings and review totals originate from public Google data gathered when the listing was compiled.
Reusing these figures is fine. A link back to this page is appreciated so readers can see the current numbers.
