About Cartaloo
Luxury portable toilets, showers, generators and fridge trailers for any occasion.
Where Cartaloo Started
The Cartaloo story began in 2015. What started as a solo venture by our founder—a local country lad, born and bred in the North—has grown from a single vehicle into a premier regional specialist. In those early years, it was a one-man operation driven by a simple commitment: providing reliable, high-quality facilities with a personal touch.
Today, that same spirit remains at the heart of everything we do. Now a multi-generational family business, we have expanded our fleet and our team without ever losing sight of the values that started it all.
We aren’t just a national hire company; we are your neighbours, deeply rooted in the communities we serve.
A Growing Family Legacy
Every event is unique, which is why we offer a versatile range of equipment tailored to your guest list and location.
We are a family business through and through. As our fleet has expanded, so has our team. Today, the next generation is at the heart of our operations, with Ben and Hannah bringing fresh energy and dedication to the business. We take immense pride in keeping the business “in the family,” ensuring that every client receives the same level of care that we’ve provided since day one
From the Borders to the Home Counties
Based locally in the North, we are proud of our heritage, but our reach is extensive. We have successfully managed events as far north as Edinburgh and as far south as Hertfordshire. Wherever your event takes place, you can trust Cartaloo to deliver premium facilities with a friendly, local face.
Meet the Team
At Cartaloo, we believe that a business is only as good as the people behind it. We are a dedicated family team.
Originally founded as a one-man operation in 2015, our team has grown alongside our reputation for excellence. While our fleet and our reach have expanded significantly over the last decade, our core mission remains the same: delivering premium facilities with a friendly, local face and a level of reliability you can only get from a family-run business.

Your Trusted Partner
for Premier Events
From the historic grounds of Bamburgh Castle to the energetic atmosphere of Kendal Calling, Cartaloo is proud to be the first choice for the region’s most iconic venues and celebrations. Our luxury facilities have supported everything from intimate weddings at Capheaton Hall to large-scale sporting events and corporate days for Egger UK.
We don’t just provide equipment; we bring local expertise and a family-run commitment to every site we visit. Whether we are navigating a remote festival field or setting up at a prestigious manor house like Capheaton Hall, our team ensures your facilities are as impressive as the location itself.
Why We Are Different
We know that when you are planning a milestone event—be it a wedding at Matfen Hall or a large-scale festival like Kendal Calling—the facilities should be the last thing on your mind. That is why we focus on three core pillars:
Pristine Quality:
We specialise in “Fresh Flush” luxury units that are a world away from standard site toilets.
Our units are the “poshest” in the fleet, arriving immaculate and ready for your guests.
24/7 Reliability:
We are one of the few providers truly available at any hour.
Whether it is a 2 am emergency call-out or a last-minute equipment request, we are the team that gets up and gets it done.
A Bespoke Approach:
Every event is different, which is why we don’t offer “one-size-fits-all” pricing.
We work closely with you to provide a custom quote based on your specific location, guest count, and requirements.
