About Johnny on the Spot

In 1998, Rachel, the owner and founder of Johnny on the Spot, made the bold decision to start her own business. She sold her VW Bug, and with $4,200 in her pocket, purchased a pumper truck and eight toilets, officially launching Chico’s premier portable toilet company—Johnny on the Spot! JOTS, as all the cool kids call it, is a Chico-based, full-service portable toilet company with a passion for delivering exceptional service. From that first year, Johnny on the Spot has continued to grow. Each year, Rachel expanded her inventory and services to include the areas surrounding Chico. As the number of customers grew beyond what Rachel could manage alone, she began building her team.

Over the years, Johnny on the Spot has proudly provided toilets for various community events, sports organizations, and construction projects. The company has also played a role in supplying toilets for local emergency services, including fire relief efforts during the devastating Camp Fire in Paradise. Most recently, Johnny on the Spot expanded its fleet to include luxury restroom trailers, ensuring they offer services that meet the full spectrum of portable toilet needs.

The story of Johnny on the Spot is far from over, and we have the people of Northern California to thank for that. As a locally owned and operated company, we will continue to serve our community with pride and remain dedicated to the customers who have been loyal to us from the beginning.
