Hurricane season sanitation: how Bay County stays ready

Bay County knows storms. After Hurricane Michael, our crews spent months supporting relief workers, contractors, and families rebuilding across the Panhandle — and it taught us exactly what the first weeks after a storm demand from portable sanitation.

When the water’s off, sanitation is priority one

Storm damage often means no working plumbing for days or weeks. Portable units bridge the gap for neighborhoods, churches serving as shelters, and distribution points. Adding hand-washing stations matters even more than usual when crews are handling debris and floodwater.

For rebuild crews and contractors

Post-storm rebuilds bring waves of out-of-town crews working long hours. We set up multi-unit site packages with stepped-up service schedules, and relocate units as work moves block to block. Multi-unit discounts apply — recovery is expensive enough.

For families living in RVs

Many families live in campers on their property while rebuilding. Our RV pump-out service comes to you on a recurring schedule, so holding tanks are one thing you don’t have to think about.

Before the season: have a plan

If you manage a business, church, or community organization, put portable sanitation in your storm plan now — a name and number to call beats scrambling after landfall. Our 24-hour emergency line, (850) 769-POTI, runs before, during, and after every storm season. We’re your neighbors; we’ll be here.
