FAQs About Hand Wash Stations

What is a portable sink?

• Portable sinks are mobile hand washing stations with temperature-controlled running water, ideal for use in areas without access to plumbing or running water. United Rentals offers individual portable sink rentals as well as sink pods that feature four hand wash stations for larger groups.

How many hand wash stations are required?

• The recommended ratio is one hand washing station for every twenty employees or guests. Depending on your project or event site, you may want to arrange for more than this. Please reach out to a United Rentals representative for assistance selecting the right number of portable hand washing station rentals for your needs.

How do portable hand washing stations work?

• Hand washing stations typically have two water tanks built into the unit, one for wastewater and one for freshwater. The water tanks can be easily disconnected when it’s time to refill the freshwater or empty the wastewater. They are either powered by a standard electrical outlet or by a battery or propane tank. Warm water sinks also feature an electric water heater and pump within the unit.
