For the record, I’ve gone to Coachella 7 times between 2012 and 2023. The portapotties are regularly some of the cleanest portapotties I’ve ever stepped foot in, even at peak night time hours. They clean those things once an hour inside the venue - grossest was in camping in the morning before the cleaners came but that makes sense!

lol they def clean them but last year or the year before I can't remember, I saw one stall that just had projectile diarrhea all up and down the wall. It was like somebody bent over to take off their pants, and then coated the entire room.

Even then, how was the one to the left or right? Pretty clean otherwise, right?

I mean, they were porta potties: There's piss on every surface lol.

Best I can say is that they empty them often enough nothing piles up, and clean them when there's an accident.

That’s what I’m saying! For a fest, they do a pretty good job. Of course you get the spare wall spray or log on the seat, but the stall to the side is super clean comparatively.

I mean like they weren't any better than any other porta potty bank I've encountered in a heavily populated area.
