Question 2

How many porta potties do I need?

Accepted Answer

Depends on whether it is a job site or an event. On a construction site, OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets one toilet for 20 or fewer workers, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers above 20. For events, the planning baseline most of the industry uses comes from ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 , which sets one unit per ten workers over a 40 hour week with one service visit. Guest count, event length and whether alcohol is served all push the number up from there. Work it out on how many porta potties do i need or, for job sites specifically, osha portable toilet requirements.

Question 3

Do I need a permit to put a porta potty in Toledo?

Accepted Answer

Not on private property. A unit in your driveway, your backyard or on your own job site lot needs no permit from anyone. If the unit sits in the public right of way, meaning a sidewalk strip, an alley or partly in the street, that placement may require a permit from the City of Toledo. Confirm it before delivery day. Porta potty permit requirements covers the questions to ask, and dumpster permit requirements covers the same territory for containers.

Question 4

How often does a porta potty get serviced?

Accepted Answer

Once a week is the standard baseline, matching ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 's assumption of one unit per ten workers over a 40 hour week with one service visit. Heavier use means more frequent visits, and a unit that fills faster than the schedule assumes needs the interval tightened rather than the complaint filed. Full detail on what a service visit includes and how the cadence gets set is on how often are porta potties cleaned .

Question 5

What are the differences between the unit types?

Accepted Answer

A standard unit has a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, no running water and no flush. It sits on a base about 44 inches square and stands about 92 inches tall. A deluxe flushable porta potty adds a flush mechanism fed by a 15 to 20 gallon fresh water reservoir, which is why it costs more per rental. For most construction work the standard porta potty rental is the right call, and for weddings the deluxe unit usually wins. An ADA accessible porta potty is wider again, because the 2010 ADA Standards require a 60 inch turning space under section 304.3 and a 32 inch clear door opening under section 4

Question 6

Do porta potties smell or freeze in Toledo?

Accepted Answer

Odor is a symptom of an overdue tank or an under-dosed chemical, not an inherent property of the unit, and shade and airflow both help. Freezing is the winter version of the same question. Toledo winters near Lake Erie are genuinely cold, and from roughly November through March a unit needs winter tank treatment so the contents do not freeze between service visits. The plastic shell is not the problem. Standing liquid is. Porta potty in winter explains what changes seasonally and what does not.

Question 7

Do you rent anything besides porta potties?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Roll-off dumpster rental in 10, 20, 30 and 40 yard sizes, storage container rental in 20 foot and 40 foot lengths, temporary fence rental using 6 foot by 12 foot chain link panels, handwashing station rental , septic pumping service, holding tank rental and luxury restroom trailer units. Restroom trailers start near $900 for a weekend as a typical market figure. Construction site services is the bundled view for job sites.

Question 8

Where do you deliver, and what do you need to get started?

Accepted Answer

We cover Toledo and the surrounding towns in Lucas County and just past it, including Sylvania, Maumee, Perrysburg, Oregon, Bowling Green, Bedford, Monroe and Frenchtown. The full list with per-town pages is on service areas, and delivery cost scales with distance, which is why the $50 to $150 delivery range is a range.

To get moving we need the delivery address, start and end dates, headcount, and a note on whether the ground is paved or soft. That is enough to size the order and price it. Send it through request a quote and you will get real numbers back with rental, delivery and service broken out separately rather than bundled into one opaque figure. If your situation is unusual or you would rather explain it out loud, start at contact instead, and about covers who you are dealing with.
