What does a porta potty rental cost?
Depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A standard toilet is the value pick, and the full porta potty rental cost breakdown lives on its own page. You can price a single porta potty rental per day or set up a monthly porta potty rental for a long job. Weekend rates sit a little above weekday because it is a premium short-term window: a standard unit is around $250 for a weekend. The standard porta potty rental is where most people start.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| Deluxe flushable | $250 | $290 | - |
| ADA accessible | $200 | $240 | - |
Delivery is billed separately. See the full dumpster rental cost and restroom trailer rental cost pages if you are pricing those too.
What are the four main unit types?
Four units cover almost every job. The standard porta potty suits construction and general labor. The deluxe flushable porta potty adds a foot-flush and a sink, which people want at weddings. The ADA accessible porta potty meets ADA Standards 213.2, where clustered single-user units require at least 5 percent accessible and never fewer than one. For crowds you scale up to a restroom trailer rental. A standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands about 92 inches tall, so it fits tight side yards. Some folks search porta john rental or portable restroom rental; those are the same units under different names. If you are on a job with paints or herbicides, pair a unit with a handwashing station to meet OSHA 1926.51(f)(1). A home renovation porta potty is usually one standard unit.
How fast can you deliver?
Most Chattanooga drops land in 24 to 48 hours. Need it now? We run emergency porta potty rental and emergency septic service when a site cannot wait. Placement matters as much as speed, so read the porta potty placement guide before we arrive. ADA Standards 302.1 says the ground has to be stable, firm and slip resistant, so a level pad beats soft grass. For a roll-off drop we need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, and that is spelled out on the roll-off dumpster rental page. If the unit sits in the public right of way, that placement needs confirming with the City of Chattanooga, and we do not name a rule we cannot cite. The porta potty rental checklist walks you through what to have ready. For a big footprint, our construction site services bundle toilets, temporary fence rental and storage container rental.
How does weekly service work?
We pump the tank, refill supplies and clean each unit on a set visit. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 puts the baseline at one service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, and that is our default. Heavy use gets more visits. A standard unit carries a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, so the schedule tracks how hard you run it. The how often are porta potties cleaned page explains the cadence, and do porta potties smell covers odor control. Want the mechanics? Read how do porta potties work. We also handle septic pumping service and grease trap pumping; a grease interceptor gets pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids hit 25 percent of the liquid depth. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, and the how often to pump a septic tank page has the detail.
How many units does my site need?
OSHA sets the floor. Under 1926.51(c)(1), construction sites need one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up, and one per 50 workers at 200 or more. The how many porta potties do I need calculator turns that into a count for your job. General industry follows a different table under OSHA 1910.141(c)(1)(i), and OSHA portable toilet requirements lays both out. Water matters too: OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at all places of employment. Where handwashing is required, 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) says soap and towels or a dryer must be present, and sanitizer alone does not count. A portable sink rental or a hand sanitizer station rental fills the gap, and the handwashing station requirements page explains when each applies.
Which units fit events versus job sites?
Different jobs, different picks. A backyard wedding restroom rental wants flushable units or a luxury restroom trailer, while a festival restroom rental or concert restroom rental needs volume. A marathon and race restroom setup spreads units along a route. For trailers, we size from a 2 stall restroom trailer to a 4 stall or 8 stall, and a shower trailer rental covers longer stays. Job sites lean on the standard unit plus a dumpster. Chattanooga hosts golf tournament restrooms, county fair restrooms and film set restroom rental too. Farms use farm and agricultural restrooms under OSHA 1928.110, which puts one facility per 20 hand-labor workers within a quarter mile walk. Disaster relief sanitation and camping porta potty round out the odd jobs.
What else can you deliver with the toilets?
Plenty, and it saves you a second vendor. Dumpsters come in 10 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard and 40 yard sizes; the dumpster sizes and dimensions page compares them. Before you fill one, check what cannot go in a dumpster and dumpster weight limits. A construction dumpster rental pairs with permits, and dumpster permit requirements explains those. Storage runs from a 20ft container to a 40ft container, plus a mobile office trailer rental; see storage container rental cost. We also rent a light tower and a temporary power pole for after-dark work in Chattanooga. Need barriers? Look at chain link temporary fence, crowd control barrier rental and temporary fence cost.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a porta potty per day?
A standard unit is around $150 for a day in Chattanooga. Longer terms cost less per day, so a week or a monthly rental beats stacking single days. The full portable toilet rental cost page breaks pricing down by unit and duration.
Do I need a permit to place a unit?
On your own property, usually not. If a unit sits in the public right of way, that placement needs confirming with the City of Chattanooga, and we will not quote a rule we cannot cite. The porta potty permit requirements page covers what we know.
How often do you clean the units?
Once a week by default, matching the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Heavy traffic gets more visits. See how often are porta potties cleaned for the full schedule.
What size holding tank is in a standard unit?
A standard unit carries a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank. That capacity sets how long it lasts between service visits. The how do porta potties work page explains the tank, the deodorizer and the pump-out.
Can you deliver on short notice?
Yes. Most drops land in 24 to 48 hours, and emergency porta potty rental moves faster when a site cannot wait. Call the contact page or send a quote request and tell us the deadline.
