A San Francisco-based tech company is taking the city's clean restroom shortage head-on. Good2Go is partnering with San Francisco merchants to profit-share the use of their commodes. The company will renovate the restroom with touchless technology including sinks, toilets and hand dryers, according to CNBC. The restrooms are unisex and have baby changing tables.
A user can access the app to find a clean restroom, wait in a virtual line and open the door with a code sent to a smartphone. The company currently works with The Creamery, Peet’s, Sextant Coffee Roasters, Rigolo and Church Street Cafe. It is planning to open over a dozen sites throughout the city, according to its website.
Typical bathroom renovations are expected to cost $35K to $40K, and the merchant’s upfront cost depends on the revenue-sharing agreement with Good2Go, the San Francisco Business Times reports. A restroom transformation takes three to five days.
Good2Go expects car-sharing drivers and tourists to use the service the most. The service is free for a limited time and then charges $2.99 for one-day use, $14.99 for a week, $19.99 for a month and $49.99 for three months.
