History

With the help of his wife Dolores, Frank founded Ace in 1965. The first portable restrooms were made of wood and extremely cumbersome then. It took two people to lift them in and out of the pick-up trucks.

In 1968, the first fiberglass and plastic portable toilet rentals were introduced. These units were more durable and lighter. For the comfort and satisfaction of our customers, Ace continues to keep up with industry advancements.

The evolution of porta-johns continues with the plastic model that is closer to the version you will see in use today. Taken in 1975, this picture also shows the modern trucks that were being added to our fleet at that time.

Frank M. Almester passed away in 1988 and his son, Frank S. Almester took over the business. Frank S. has worked at the family company since he was 13 years old and is proud to carry on the family tradition.
