Emergency Call Outs
24/7 on-site emergency pump and clean services continue to be available with our portaloo hire. With the possibility of spreading COVID-19 heightened by shared facilities, we are ready at all times to chemically clean and disinfect your portable toilets.
Our clients can request an emergency call out if they have any concerns about the cleanliness and safety of their portaloos. This may be because someone who has used one of the portable toilets has developed COVID-19 symptoms.
Our cleaning team will respond to your emergency call-out within the metropolitan Melbourne area as soon as we possibly can.
Environmentally Responsible Cleaning Services
The chemical treatment we use to disinfect our portaloos is free from formaldehyde deodorisers, which is a hazard to both human and environmental health. Instead, our chemical treatment is endorsed by all relevant environmental groups, unions and government bodies.
We also go the extra mile to dispose of waste at an EPA approved and licensed processing facility.
While COVID safe cleaning practices remain a priority, so too does minimise our environmental footprint wherever possible.
How We Are Adhering to the National Code of Practice?
Ahoy Hire’s cleaning practices meet the national code of practice outlined by the Hire and Rental Industry Association of Australia. This means we adhere to strict hygiene and safety protocol, not just for the portaloo users but for our personnel transporting, servicing and maintaining the portable toilets too.
Ahoy Hire follows WorkSafe’s recommendations for the frequency with which portaloos should be serviced. This means our sewage tanks are pumped out regularly enough to ensure the tank’s capacity is unlikely to exceed 50% before the next scheduled service. This helps to minimise odour and keeps our portaloos are functioning properly.
