Covering for a Series of Associated Portable Toilet Structures

Abstract

A method and system for providing an aesthetically pleasing covering for construction site structures, such as portable toilets and/or construction waste bins, includes expanses of material designed to encompass and/or encircle such structures. Various embodiments are directed to retractable, weather-resistant fabrics that, when employed in accordance with the present invention, create a cabana-like structure to obscure the undesired aesthetics of underlying structures. Other embodiments relate to camouflaging such structures to avoid the unpleasant visual appearance of reconstruction/remodeling projects where such structures are utilized.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A portable toilet structure covering system, comprising,
 a) a plurality of free-standing portable toilet structures, each of said structures having four sides and a top-most portion, said sides and top most portion having an exterior comprising a rigid material;   b) a plurality of reversibly attachable panels comprising material comprised of a weather resistant material less rigid than material forming the exterior portion of the portable toilet structures, said panels being sized so that when placed in association with said portable toilet structures, at least two sides of said exterior portion of said portable toilet structures are substantially obscured from view;   c) a plurality of connection means operatively associated with the portable toilet structures for securing said plurality of attachable panels thereto, said plurality connection means comprising connection points selected from the group consisting of slidably engagable members, hook and loop structures, magnetic connection means and bracket assemblies,   d) wherein said plurality of attachable panels, once secured to said connection means, remains reversibly affixed to said portable toilet structures; and   e) a top most covering operatively associated with said portable toilet structure, said top most covering being configured above the plurality of portable toilet structures and being comprised of a weather resistant material.   
     
     
         2 . The system as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein said connecting means comprises slidably engagable members that are adapted to reversibly engage with said plurality of attachable panels. 
     
     
         3 . The system as set forth in  claim 2 , wherein said engagable members are vertically mounted. 
     
     
         4 . The system as set forth in  claim 2 , wherein said engagable members are horizontally mounted. 
     
     
         5 . The system as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein said plurality of attachable panels have attaching means provided to reversibly attach placards, advertisements or material adapted for adornment of said system. 
     
     
         6 . The system as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein said system is washable by directing a water hose thereto without having to dissociate said plurality of attachable panels from said connection means. 
     
     
         7 . The covering as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein said top-most covering is a pre-formed plastic cap having sloped surfaces that meet at a point, said top-most covering adapted to fit over said free-standing portable toilet structures. 
     
     
         8 . The system as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of attachable panels includes a single image that spans at least three separate portable toilet structures when placed adjacent to each other.
