Testimonial

Leon S
My name is Leon and i am currently an electrician with Power Solutions LLC. Every week when i see him i speak to Patrick from AMERI-CANS to thank him for the amazing job he does with the upkeep of the porter johns on our jobsite here at MCC-6. He makes it comfortable and convenient for us to be able to use the bathroom in a decent environment. I really appreciate his efficiency, cleanliness and kindness.. thank you Patrick and all of the employees at AMERI-CANS! “On my large-scale mission critical project in Virginia, AMERI-CANS was called in to resolve problems associated with terrible service, poor quality equipment, and lack of expertise experienced with not one, but TWO portable sanitation providers. AMERI-CANS reduced our downtime and generated a comfortable, clean, reliable sanitation environment for our construction trailers and for our site with 750+ workers. After AMERI-CANS arrived, we never had another issue. On top of that, we were proud to support the veteran owners and employees of AMERI-CANS as well as their charitable initiatives serving our nation's warriors, their families, and families of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom (Gold Star families).” - Senior Manager, Hyperscale Data Center Construction (Confidential Client)

GI Johns is on another level of portable toilet service. The employees always have a great attitude and you won’t find a cleaner facility. They also give back a portion of each rental back to a veterans service group!!! Additionally, the trades will request to move job sites if GI Johns is not the toilet provider. They are that different. They have a customer for life with me.

We recently used GI Johns for a company picnic and were extremely happy with their service and product. The unit was the cleanest porta potty I have ever seen. Working with them was also very easy and pleasant. They were very responsive, their prices were good, and they worked with us on delivery and pickup. I highly recommend using them!

We experienced a total drain failure at our Springfield, VA home this summer and spent 6 horrible weeks with no toilets, showers, laundry, dish washer. The same day we called GI Johns for help, co-owner Peter Ford delivered a portapotty on our driveway, to our great relief! With all we had to manage related to our plumbing disaster, Peter completely solved one problem, very professionally and friendly and timely, and allowed us to de-stress a bit. Also impressive was the cleanliness of the unit and the promptness of the periodic servicing. Can't thank Peter and his team enough. 5 STARS!!! Icing on the cake is that home insurer USAA reimbursed 100% of the GI Johns invoice!

There I was in the middle of a water main break with a Elementary School that needed restroom access. In a time of need it is nice to know that G I Johns is a phone call away. We received portable toilets within the hour, which put minds at ease. Pun intended, Thank you for your service. They are professional, dedicated, and will deliver in a pinch. I will keep G I Johns on my list of resources when the next situation arises. This contractor is first class.

Solutions that help people and nature

NOT YOUR AVERAGE PORTA POTTY

Market research, operational due-diligence, and skepticism of the status quo coupled with professional and military experience have surfaced several key areas that enable us to take a purpose-built approach to excelling at portable sanitation. AMERI-CANS provides our customers with portable sanitation rentals that buck the industry baseline of accepting vendor convenience, weathered hardware, and archaic methods of customer interaction as the norm.

DISCIPLINE

Standard operating procedures, planning in excess, job-based staffing, redundancy at every turn, and a focus on doing the small things properly translates to optimizing our customers’ experience.

SERVICE

The hallmark of our pedigree, the driving force behind our Mission and the core tenet of our business approach. Service is often advertised, rarely meets expectations and is hardly ever differentiated. Not anymore.

FLEXIBILITY

The difference between doing what you can do, versus doing what needs to be done. We are a partner who will find solutions to your problems. Excuse is a four letter word in our model. We understand that our job is to make problems go away and that requires us to be creative, versatile, adaptable and committed.

COMMUNITY

We will engage the neighborhoods and people we operate in and with, remaining committed to Veteran causes and employment and sharing opportunity with our Veteran counterparts in other regions. We commit a portion of our proceeds to the Travis Manion Foundation, Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation, and several other non-profit service organizations.

PURPOSEFUL

Our gear is dynamic, it is chosen and implemented for a reason; temperature, moisture, resiliency, wind resistance, volume, user profiles, climate control, access to utilities, desired user experience, local regulation all must be accounted for. We are not one-size fits all. We will implement the right tools on the job(s) at hand. Every team member will operate by prioritizing horse, saddle, and then rider.

PROFESSIONAL

Our dedication to competency and excellence fosters trust, builds lasting relationships, cements our customers’ faith in our assertions and positions us as leaders in the industry. By maintaining the highest standards in every aspect of our work, we uphold our reputation and ensure our continued success.

Featured Case Study

The Potable Problem

❝We take pride in solving the unsolvable and beating expectations.❞

Challenge

❝We (are on permanent water and) have to reroute the water main on site and shut off service to our trailer compound for probably 45 days, we cannot tear up our compound decking and skirting, can AMERI-CANS figure out how to get water to our trailers?❞

Approach

Our team at AMERI-CANS brought out the white boards and got straight to work brainstorming a creative solution, devising a plan to effectively move upwards of 5,000 gallons of potable water daily through an existing, in-place system of freshwater lines without disrupting or destroying existing structures.

Solution

AMERI-CANS devised a 6,000-gallon potable water delivery system backflowed through a fire-hydrant, thereby utilizing existing water hookups and leaving all site improvements (decking, skirting, etc.) untouched. This required pressurizing 200 yds of 8” main and some 600 yds of 1” and ¾” water lines. Over a weekend, we sourced and assembled the materials to enable uninterrupted operations, including NSF fixtures, pumps, pressure tank, filters and redesigned our delivery process to ensure safe sourcing and delivery of the water from start to finish. This solution went from ideation to active in less than four weeks and continued delivery of 6,000 gal daily for 90 days.
