Franchise History

From the depths of a porta potty mishap in 2004 surged a revolution in the portable restroom industry. One spring day, David Sauers, Jr. was enjoying a festival in one of Savannah’s community parks with his young, potty training daughter with another in tow. The porta potties offered had no lights, no toilet paper, no running water, no soap, and no room for the threesome. The situation that ensued left dad and daughters soiled and all three of them annoyed by their unfortunate experience. However, Sauers resolved to develop a sanitary and comfortable portable restroom option. Sauers partnered with friend and engineer Robert Glisson to do just that. Leaving successful careers behind them, Sauers and Glisson co-founded Royal Restrooms® and paved the way for a contemporary portable restroom industry. The Royal Restrooms team designed their restrooms with consideration to the comforts of home. The spacious restrooms included functioning bathroom fixtures, lights, vanities and mirrors, climate control, and toiletries. Sauers and Glisson further defined their Royal Restrooms brand, calling it a regal portable restroom experience™, and added contemporary decor, music, and their signature butter mints on the counter tops.
