Total Sanitation Services (“TSS”), a Trivest Partners-backed provider of portable sanitation rentals and related services across North America, today announced its acquisition of Spanky’s Portable Toilets (“Spanky’s”), a Tuscaloosa, Alabama-based provider of portable sanitation services. The acquisition marks TSS’s expansion into Alabama and further strengthens its growing family of brands across the United States and Canada.
Spanky’s is an established provider of portable toilet rentals, restroom trailers, waste servicing, and related transportation services serving the Tuscaloosa market. The company supports construction, events, and other local customers through a range of sanitation services, with a strong reputation built on dependable service and long-standing customer relationships.
As part of the transaction, Spanky’s will continue operating under its established local leadership while benefiting from TSS’s broader operational resources, purchasing scale, and industry expertise. The partnership provides additional resources to support Spanky’s continued growth while preserving the local relationships and service culture that have contributed to its success.
“We’re pleased to welcome Spanky’s Portable Toilets to the Total Sanitation Services family,” said Ed Genovese, Chief Executive Officer of Total Sanitation Services. “Spanky’s has built a strong business serving the Tuscaloosa market, with an experienced team and a commitment to customer service that aligns well with our approach. We’re excited to support the team as they continue serving their customers and expanding their capabilities across the region.”
Continued Expansion Across North America
The acquisition of Spanky’s builds on a series of recent additions to TSS’s North American network, reflecting the company’s continued focus on expanding its geographic reach and strengthening its service capabilities.
Earlier in 2026, TSS welcomed The Fancy Flush, an Austin, Texas-based provider of luxury restroom trailers serving commercial construction projects, renovations, and events, and Black Tie Toilets, a portable sanitation and waste-disposal provider serving the Greater Toronto Area and Hamilton region. Black Tie offers portable restrooms, septic pump-outs, and related sanitation, pumping, and water services.
TSS also expanded its presence in the Pacific Northwest through Clinkscales Portable Toilets, a portable sanitation provider serving the Greater Portland metropolitan area and Northern Willamette Valley in Oregon, and Jiffy John, a portable sanitation operator in British Columbia.
Together, these acquisitions strengthen TSS’s regional operations and expand its ability to serve customers across construction, infrastructure, industrial, and event markets throughout North America.
Preserving Local Identity, Supporting Growth
TSS operates through a family-of-brands model that combines established local operators with shared operational resources, technology, and growth support. The approach enables acquired businesses to maintain their local identities, customer relationships, and service cultures while benefiting from the resources of a broader North American organization.
“Each business that joins TSS brings valuable local knowledge, experienced employees, and customer relationships that we want to preserve,” Genovese added. “Our focus is on providing the resources and support to help these businesses continue growing while maintaining the service standards that have earned the trust of their communities.”
TSS continues to seek partnerships with founder- and family-owned portable sanitation businesses across the United States and Canada. The company is particularly interested in established operators providing portable restroom rentals, restroom trailers, and related sanitation services, with strong local reputations and opportunities for continued growth.
