Every fall, as the air gets crisp, thousands of thrill-seekers from across the Greater Philadelphia area and beyond flock to one of the country’s largest and most legendary haunted attractions: Pennhurst Asylum. Creating a truly terrifying and immersive experience on such a massive scale requires meticulous planning for every detail, including the essential comforts that keep guests on-site. This year, Gray Brothers is incredibly proud to be the official portable sanitation provider for this iconic event, handling the crucial logistics “behind the screams.”
The Challenge: Sanitation for a Massive, High-Traffic Attraction
Servicing a major venue like Pennhurst Asylum presents a unique set of challenges. It’s not just about placing a few portable toilets; it’s about developing a comprehensive sanitation strategy that can handle thousands of guests every night for an entire season. Our planning involved:
- High-Volume Capacity: Calculating the correct number of porta potties to minimize wait times and ensure facilities are always available, even during peak hours.
- Strategic Placement: Working with the event organizers to place units in key locations that are convenient for guests but don’t interfere with the haunted attraction’s immersive atmosphere.
- Accessibility for All: Ensuring inclusivity by deploying an adequate number of fully handicap accessible portable restrooms in easily reachable locations.
- Enhanced Hygiene: Supplementing restrooms with numerous hand sanitizer stands or handwashing stations to promote public health and safety.
