A Top Company

Our Story
In 2012, we acquired ABC Sanitation, a portable toilet company located in Nampa, Idaho and began developing the PortaPros brand. We saw the possibility for a strong future for this company and the potential to do this business better by doing it different.
In 2019, we acquired Anytime Portables, an Eastern Oregon based company and folded it under the PortaPros brand. In addition to various types of portable toilets, the company rents and services portable wash stations, temporary fencing and executive restroom trailers.
Our leadership team and our culture is built on a focus on the long-game, not short-term results. We are a privately owned, local business and take a long-term approach in all we do. In our company SAFETY is a core focus. We have a strong Injury & Illness Prevention Plan and our team focuses on keeping things SAFE for our team, our customers and our community.
