Crane viewers arrive before dawn and stay into the evening. A landowner or club hosting a group needs a firm, plowed or gravel spot for each unit. The truck must stop within about 10 ft.

Hand-wash stations switch to sanitizer during hard freezes. Plan about 1 standard unit per 50 guests for a 4-hour stretch, and make at least 1 unit wheelchair-accessible. Learn more about wheelchair-accessible porta potties for group sites.
