Dublin's year opens with TradFest in Temple Bar and the St Patrick's Festival in March, then barely lets up. Summer brings big outdoor concerts at Marlay Park, St Anne's Park and Malahide Castle, the Dublin Horse Show fills the RDS in August, and Croke Park and the Aviva Stadium pull huge crowds on match days right through the year. The Dublin Marathon rounds things off in October.
All of that puts real pressure on local hire stock, so if you are organising a fun run, street feast, club fundraiser or private party anywhere in the county, it pays to lock in units early. Suppliers listed on LooLocator can quote for single event units, banks of toilets with urinals for bigger crowds, wheelchair accessible units and luxury trailers for weddings and corporate marquees. Weekend event hire typically lands somewhere between €120 and €180 per unit, though quotes vary with numbers and servicing.
Away from the festival fields, most hires in Dublin are quieter, longer jobs: a toilet on a house extension in Clontarf or Terenure, a renovation in a Georgian terrace where the only access is a narrow rear laneway, or welfare units on larger builds in the Docklands and around the M50. Standard weekly site hire typically works out at €40 to €60 including a scheduled service visit, though tight access can affect the price.
It is worth telling suppliers up front about anything awkward: on-street parking outside the property, a shared lane, steps, or a basement-level yard, because delivery vehicles need to get reasonably close. Greater Dublin is covered by four local authorities, Dublin City Council, Fingal, South Dublin and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, and suppliers listed here serve all of them, from Swords and Howth down to Dún Laoghaire, Tallaght and the Wicklow border.
Yes, if the unit sits on a public road or footpath you need permission from Dublin City Council, or from Fingal, South Dublin or Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council in their areas, usually as a road-space or hoarding licence. On private land such as a garden, driveway or fenced site, no council permission is needed.
Four to six weeks ahead is sensible for June to August, and earlier if your date clashes with a concert weekend at Marlay Park or Malahide Castle, Horse Show week at the RDS, or a big Croke Park fixture, when local stock gets snapped up. Winter dates are usually far easier to cover at short notice.
Around €40 to €60 a week is typical for a standard unit on a site or at a house, including a regular service visit, while event hire over a weekend usually falls between €120 and €180. Exact prices depend on unit type, access and how often you need it emptied, so compare a few quotes.
