A fire has destroyed a Grand Junction, Colorado portable toilet business, and officials estimate the damage at $1.5 million.
No one was injured in the fire, which was reported by a passer-by early Monday. The cause is under investigation.
The building housed Bestway Services, which offers drain service and septic tank pumping as well as portable toilets.
The business owners, Chris Boss and Ken Powell, say the fire destroyed about 200 portable toilets, five vehicles and other equipment.
Boss says they plan to reopen the business.
