What the district rents
The Pearl runs on two tracks. Tower and mid-rise construction and warehouse-to-loft conversions keep standard units and handwashing stations working on tight sites, and for a big multi-floor job we set a monthly rental with pumping built in.
Then there is the event side: gallery openings, courtyard receptions, and rooftop gatherings that call for deluxe flushing cabins, an ADA-accessible unit, or the climate-controlled restroom trailer, placed to fit a polished setting rather than a jobsite.
Fitting a unit into a tight block
There is little slack on these streets, so placement is planned to the foot. On a construction site we set a unit inside the fence line or in a coned staging bay so the sidewalk, bike lane, and streetcar track all stay clear for the block.
Where a loading dock or garage entrance is the only opening, we time the set around its use and place the unit just clear of the door so deliveries and the trades both keep moving. On a rooftop or podium job we coordinate the lift and the footing with the site super well ahead.
Streetcar traffic and wet-weather footing
The Portland Streetcar and constant curb activity shape the approach, so our driver stages from a cross street and sets the unit fast to keep the lane moving. A right-of-way permit may apply for a curbside spot, so check with the city before the placement is locked.
Rain runs most of the year, so covered footing and a firm pad keep a unit level on pavers or a plaza deck. Delivery, scheduled pumping, and pickup come as one order, which keeps a busy Pearl site from juggling separate calls on a crowded block.
