These solutions peel, fade, leave residue, get lost, and make premium equipment look temporary. ProPlacard replaces all of that with a single mounted system that keeps the right placards with the trailer and looks professional across the entire fleet. ## Company **Portable John, INC** has been in the restroom rental and service business since 1987, headquartered in Lockport, Illinois.
