What is the difference between a standard and deluxe porta potty?
expand_more
A standard unit is a basic single-occupant portable toilet with a holding tank and ventilation. A deluxe (flushable) unit adds a foot-pump flushing mechanism, a built-in hand wash sink with soap dispenser, and improved airflow. Deluxe units cost roughly 30-40% more per week but provide a noticeably better user experience for longer-term rentals.
Do I need an ADA accessible unit for my event?
expand_more
If your event is open to the public, ADA compliance typically requires at least one wheelchair-accessible unit. Many municipalities mandate ADA units for events exceeding 250 attendees. For private construction sites, check your project specifications and local building codes. When in doubt, adding one ADA unit is always a safe choice.
When should I rent a restroom trailer instead of standard units?
expand_more
Restroom trailers are best for events where guest comfort is a priority: weddings, corporate functions, galas, and VIP areas. They offer climate control, running water, mirrors, and interior lighting. They require a flat surface and access to a power source. Cost is significantly higher (starting around $400/day), so they make sense primarily for premium, shorter-duration events.
Can I rent a hand wash station without a porta potty?
expand_more
Yes. Hand wash stations are standalone units and can be rented independently. They are commonly added to food service events, farmers markets, and any site that already has restroom facilities but needs dedicated hand washing. Most vendors offer them as add-ons with the same delivery schedule as their portable toilets.
