A farmer-founded business hiring portable and accessible toilets around Cambridge, Peterborough, King's Lynn and Norwich.
Cambridge sits on the edge of some of the most heavily farmed land in England, and the events calendar reflects it. The Midsummer Fair has been held on Midsummer Common since the thirteenth century, Strawberry Fair takes over the same ground each June, and the Cambridge Folk Festival fills Cherry Hinton Hall at the end of July. Beyond the city, the fen villages run their own shows, ploughing matches and horticultural fetes right through the summer.
Suppliers listed on LooLocator quote for all of it, from a pair of standard units behind a beer tent to accessible loos and urinal banks for a full show field. For rural sites, it is worth telling suppliers up front about:
Away from the show circuit, most hire around Cambridge is quieter work: a single unit at a farmyard through harvest, welfare provision for a barn conversion in South Cambridgeshire, or toilets for the housebuilding that keeps spreading through places like Northstowe and Cambourne. Weekly site hire in the area typically runs £30 to £45 a unit, which usually includes a scheduled service visit to empty, clean and restock.
Farm hire has its own rhythms. Harvest crews and fruit pickers need units for a matter of weeks rather than months, and suppliers are used to short seasonal contracts with delivery straight to a field gate. As a rough industry guide, one serviced unit covers about seven people on a standard working week, so a gang of twenty at harvest would want three. Ask each supplier what their service day is for your patch, because rural rounds often run on fixed weekdays.
Yes, a toilet placed on a public road, pavement or verge needs a highway licence from the local council before it goes down. On private land, including gardens, farmyards and show fields, no permission is needed, though listed settings and very long stays can occasionally need a word with planning.
Book four to six weeks ahead for June and July weekends if you can. Show season in Cambridgeshire is compressed, with village fetes, the Midsummer Fair and the Cambridge Folk Festival all drawing on the same pool of suppliers, so units and weekend service rounds fill up quickly.
Around £30 to £45 a week is typical for a single unit on a site or farm, with event weekend hire usually landing between £100 and £160. Prices move with delivery distance, servicing frequency and unit type, so it is worth comparing two or three local quotes.
