History
Believe it or not, but we didn’t become the market leader in public toilets overnight. The story of 2theloo began in 2009, when one of our founders went on a family holiday to Bruges, in Belgium – a popular tourist destination, but he couldn’t find a decent public toilet anywhere. He noticed that even in some bigger cities, hygienic toilet facilities are often hard to find. That is how the 2theloo concept was born. Soon afterwards, in 2011, the first ‘toilet shop’ opened in Kalverstraat, one of Amsterdam’s busiest shopping streets. But it didn’t stop there: partnerships with Shell, Total, SNCF and ADIF soon followed. Our presence increased rapidly, and now you can use 2theloo facilities at more than 200 locations in twelve different countries.
What we do?
The name tells you pretty much everything you need to know: at 2theloo, you can use the toilet. But not just any toilet – ours are always clean (something we can guarantee thanks to our partner Essity’s cleaning products). Because as far as we’re concerned, hygiene always comes first. It is also our mission to provide you with a high-quality experience, and customer satisfaction is high on our list of priorities. Every so often, we ask our visitors how they found their experience at 2theloo, and we use the feedback for new locations. Because we want every toilet visit to be a great experience.
Opening times
Our opening times vary at each location. Check out your location on the map to avoid disappointment. Because the last thing you want is to get caught short.

Accessibility
Everyone should be able to use our facilities. And we really do mean everyone. Young people? Yes! Elderly people? Of course! People with limited mobility? Certainly! Parents with babies? No problem! Parents with young children? Naturally!
We do everything we can to make sure everyone feels welcome at 2theloo, which includes making all our locations fully accessible. Disabled people and wheelchair users can use our specially equipped facilities with wide access, a lower washbasin and toilet, and rails for extra support. You will also find facilities for changing nappies at every location. And 2theloo is completely free for young children.
Hygiene & COVID-19
When you’re on the road and you need to use the toilet, the most important thing is that it’s clean, right? We think so too. Hygiene has been our main focus since day one, and especially since the pandemic.
At 2theloo, you can flush and turn on the taps using motion sensors. This prevents the spread of bacteria and viruses, and helps to keep our locations clean. To maintain this high standard of hygiene, our toilets are cleaned thoroughly several times a day by our skilled staff, using high-quality products. Toilet paper, cleaning products, hand soap and much more are supplied by our partner and supplier Essity, the international hygiene and health company.

Work out where you think you lost the item.

We will get back to you as soon as possible.
- Have you found an item that belongs to somebody else? Please give it to the staff at that location. They will keep it safe until the rightful owner contacts us.
