Never been refused anywhere or even had a problem when asking to use them in over 30 years.Same here, although I’ve only been driving 12yrs.
Never been refused anywhere either, but I have refused to use some off the facilities that have been offered

I frequent many forums…
Football
Cycling
Mountain biking
Kayacking
Urbexing
SurfingWhat comes apparent on all these forums ! I use is that all posters are trained and can use a toilet.
It’s only when I log onto a truckers site where you guys some what seem to struggle with basic bodily functions other folks take for granted!
Why would you have threads on toilet use if it was not the case?That reminds me, I must log onto that thread… How much an hour are you worth!
And the majority of participants of the above mentioned sports will all have relieved themselves in the open as someone who took part in long distance mountain biking and mountaineering I can tell you that on open moorland or the side of a cliff toilets are very few and far between. The point being made here is that there are occasions when a perfectly serviceable toilet is available and some jobsworth decides that you cannot use it. If you were a sales rep visiting a firm it wouldn’t occur to them to ban you from the toilets yet it is perfectly acceptable to ban a driver. Yes there are a minority who screw it up for the rest of us but that wil be the case in all professions as all professions are a cross section of society and society is by no means perfect
Never been refused use of a toilet in many years. But thankfully, I’m not a lorry driver, I just drive a lorry

Thats what they call it today, used to be called trespass and burglary when I was younger & carried at least a 6 month sentence
Well, you learn something new every day.
Drivers brought this upon themselves…

Assume you mean by SOME drivers leaving a mess at one time or another, but if that was the criteria for removing toilet facilities, there would be no public toilets anywhere, that is what cleaners are for. If a shopper left a mess at Asda supermarket toilet they wouldn’t ban all shoppers, or same in a pub they wouldn’t ban all drinkers, or cinema, football ground, bogs in parks, swimming pools, railway stations, or any other type of venue that you can think of… as everybody, (including a driver) is an individual with different degrees of standards, not a group of like minded clones.

Not according to Chester
They banned all drivers from using the toilets at the ASDA RDC at South Elmsall. There’s a big notice on the doors saying that drivers have been banned for making a mess. I found it hilarious that they’ve also now stuck a notice up informing the men that they are not allowed to use the female toilets due to the mess being made.
It always does amuse me that some of us gentlemen just can’t seem to ■■■■ in a big hole without making a mess. Hell, I stayed at a mates house after a night out, and I couldn’t believe that he chooses to ■■■■ all over his own toilet seat - his bird must have hated it! But he does feel it should be left up!

This is who you need to get onto. Gillian Kemp is doing a fantastic job of fighting for the rights of truckers and all drivers to get decent facilities. Take a look at her page and I am sure when she joins us here she will make some replies to your concerns.I am repeating this comment as I feel Gillian and her associates are doing a good job on behalf of all drivers needing toilet facilities everywhere they go. Please contact her as she needs as must feedback as possible to get this problem sorted out.
a lot of industrial premises are built to a cost,hence the plumbing systems are simply inadequate.
Ive lost count of the times iv
e laid a man sized cable…and it simply refuses to flush.
then the next bloke drops one on top,and the toilet is blocked
