Royal Restrooms is a franchise brand that specializes in providing high-quality, clean, luxury portable restrooms and portable shower trailers for events and locations such as weddings, corporate gatherings, festivals and construction sites. These restrooms feature amenities like flush toilets, sinks, heating and air conditioning, and are specifically designed to offer a high level of comfort and convenience.

Royal Restrooms was founded in Savannah, Georgia in 2004 by David Sauers and Robert Glisson, who sought to develop a sanitary and comfortable portable restroom option. Unlike traditional porta potties, Royal Restrooms also feature bathroom fixtures, music, contemporary décor and mirrors, providing for a more relaxed and comfortable experience.

How Many Royal Restrooms Locations Are There?

As of September 2023, there are more than 17 Royal Restrooms franchises and 12 separately licensed locations that cover over 50 service locations spanning more than 15 states.

What Is Royal Restrooms’ Business Model?

Royal Restrooms’ business model revolves around renting its upscale portable restroom trailers for different events and occasions. The brand offers a range of trailer options, allowing clients to choose the size and style of trailer that best suits their needs. According to Royal Restrooms’ consumer-facing website, the concept is “simple, easy to deploy and manage, and there’s no ‘dirty work’ involved.”

Each franchisee is given exclusive rights to their specific territory. According to Royal Restrooms co-founder David Sauers, each office has between 35 to 50 trailers; some have as many as 150. The greater the number of trailers a franchisee possesses, the greater the opportunity for generating revenue. The brand also lists the following benefits of joining its franchise network:

  • Corporate and locally-based training

  • A detailed operations manual
  • Local marketing guidance and materials
  • Proprietary business management software
  • 24-hour, on-call consulting
