Charles W Howard is the President and CEO of CallAhead
Corporation, a provider of portable toilets in the New York area. The company
was founded by his father, Charles P. Howard, in 1976. Charles W. Howard has
been running the company since 1981.
When he took over CallAhead the business had just 150
portable toilets, one employee, and one truck. The ambitious and industrious
young man proceeded to expand the company, building it into what it is today,
the industry leader with twelve thousand portable toilets, 150 employees, and
seventy-five trucks. The company's portable toilets are the most rented in the
New York area. They are the only company in the city to provide like-new, high
quality portable toilets. They also have a guaranteed cleaning service to make
sure each unit is clean every time. They use only the best cleaning supplies
and chemicals available.
CallAhead portable toilets receive consistently positive
reviews from their customers. And consistency is one of the keys to the
company's success. "At CallAhead we've learned that the best way to create
consistency is to have a backup system for all of our systems," Charles W
Howard says. For every four trucks on the road, he says, there is an extra
backup truck; for every piece of equipment in the field there is matching
equipment in their yards.
"We have acquired vast knowledge from our decades
servicing New York," Charles W Howard of CallAhead says, "making us the leader in
quality porta potty equipment and superior cleaning service that cannot be
matched." He is also a committed supporter of his community, donating
support facilities to upgrade a neighborhood sports field in his hometown of
Broad Channel, New York, and supporting various local charities with donations.
