Commercial bathroom supplies help you keep a clean, well-stocked restroom for your store or business. Whether it is an employee or a customer using it, you should strive to keep it clean and sanitary.

Commercial restroom supplies can range from jetair hand dryers, to cleaning chemicals, to toilet paper and even to restroom advertising. You can easily and affordably find what you are looking for on the web.

To start on your quest for restroom supplies:

1. Take an inventory of what you need. Are you just looking for the basics—toilet paper, paper towels, and hand soap, or are you trying to leave a lasting impression on your bathroom visitor?

2. Look for washroom supplies that will easily help you keep your restroom clean and tidy. Consider a jetair hand dryer to minimize paper towel waste. Think about foam soap dispensers instead of liquid gel ones.

3. Purchase commercial washroom supplies from a reputable company.

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Tailor your commercial bathroom supplies to your needs

If you are in a high traffic situation, purchase enough toilet paper and cleaning supplies to last you for a given amount of time. If it is only a small bathroom used by employees, the demand isn't high enough to have it restocked as often as larger, multi-stall consumer restrooms. If you have to buy in quantity, see what sort of bulk discounts they can offer you.

I recommend: Check out the large product selection by the Commercial Cleanser Company. Carey Wiping Materials Corp. offers wiping products, soap products and janitorial products.

Look for wholesale pricing on commercial restroom products

You are in business, so take advantage of wholesale pricing offered by many retailers.

I recommend: Look at the wholesale pricing at Tundra Specialties, and look at all the touch-free options from Touch-Free Concepts. You can do touch-free flushers and sinks, and they also sell touch-free items like soap dispensers and automatic air fresheners.

Remember the miscellaneous commercial restroom supplies

Toilet paper...check. Hand soap...check. Trash can...check. You're done, right? Wrong. Think about items like the paper towel disposal, or a changing table in the women's room. Consider an Expose-It UV light to see where you've missed cleaning.

I recommend: Find all sorts of commercial washroom supplies from toilet paper roll bars to the aforementioned Expose-It UV light at JaniSan. Brand names to think of for changing tables are Koala and Rubbermaid, both of which make quality, reliable products.

Having to change a baby on a coat on the floor or over the sink is inconvenient and frustrating for parents. If you install a diaper changing station, your company will be remembered for its thoughtfulness.
