Christmas parties and year-end events: how many toilets you need
November and December bring company posadas, neighborhood posadas, Christmas dinners and New Year's parties. For a 4-hour party plan 1 portable toilet per 50–75 guests; with punch, beer or an open bar, 1 per 35–50. This guide covers which line to choose, how many units to rent and when to book in Guadalajara.
If your event is in December, ask for a quote in October: it is peak season and availability fills up by date.
Quick table for a party
| Guests | 4 hours | 6 hours | 8+ hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 1-2 | 2-3 | 3-4 |
| 100 | 2-3 | 3-4 | 4-6 |
| 200 | 4-5 | 5-7 | 7-10 |
| 500 | 8-10 | 12-15 | 15-20 |
With alcohol, use the high end (for 100 people: 3–4 toilets instead of 2–3). For your exact number use the portable toilet calculator or read the full guide on how many toilets you need.
Which line fits your party
- Company posada or year-end dinner: VIP restrooms for events or presidential restrooms, with finishes and lighting that suit a corporate event. See also corporate portable toilet rental in Guadalajara.
- Neighborhood or school posada (many guests, open entry): basic toilets for volume, with one accessible unit included.
- Large garden or hall party with 150+ guests: portable restroom trailers, several stalls in one unit and better flow at peak times.
You can mix lines. The portable toilets for events page summarizes options and delivery.

FAQ: toilets for Christmas parties
How many portable toilets do I need for a Christmas party?
For a 4-hour party plan 1 toilet per 50–75 guests; with punch, beer or an open bar, 1 per 35–50. That means 2–3 toilets for 100 people (3–4 with alcohol) and 4–5 for 200. If the party runs 6 hours or more, go up according to the table in this article.
How far in advance should I book toilets for a party in Guadalajara?
Normally 3–4 weeks, but October to December is peak event season: for December dates, request a quote 2–3 months ahead to secure availability.
Are portable toilets suitable for a company Christmas party?
Yes. For companies we recommend the VIP or presidential lines, which look right at a corporate event, plus at least one accessible unit. Luvory delivers, installs and services the units at the venue.
