How many portable toilets does my job site need?
OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets minimum counts by crew size: one facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers up to 20, moving to one seat and one urinal per 50 workers at 200 or more, details you'll find in our OSHA Portable Toilet Requirements guide. A construction crew of 30 needs at least two units. An event with 100 guests should plan for four or five. The right number depends on how long people stay on site and how many use facilities at once. Call us and describe your job; we'll tell you what works.
What's the difference between standard and deluxe units?
A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground, standing 92 inches tall. It's a single-stall, gravity-fed toilet with a holding tank and no frills. A deluxe unit adds hand sanitizer, a sink, a faucet, lighting and often higher-grade materials inside. Both types work for construction, events and temporary sites. A standard unit runs $130 to $200 per week in Weston, while a deluxe model costs more. If your crew washes hands on site and water access matters, deluxe makes sense. For rough job sites where basic sanitation is the goal, standard saves money.
Do I need an ADA accessible unit?
If any guest, employee or site visitor uses a wheelchair or has limited mobility, yes. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that where portable toilet units cluster, at least 5 percent of them, never fewer than one unit, must be accessible. An accessible unit has a wider door opening (32 inches minimum per ADA Standards section 404.2.3), a clear route at least 36 inches wide (ADA Standards section 403.5.1) and grab bars. It costs more than standard units. An ADA unit rents for around $120 to $185 per week in Weston. Most events and public sites in Weston need at least one accessible unit on hand. The ADA Accessible Porta Potty page covers specs and placement tips.
When should I rent a restroom trailer instead of portable toilets?
A restroom trailer is worth it for events lasting days or weeks, or where you want multiple stalls in one enclosed, climate-controlled space. A 2-stall trailer suits 50 to 100 people. A 4-stall fits 100 to 200. An 8-stall serves 200 or more. Trailers have running water, flushing toilets, mirrors, sinks and hand soap built in, meeting requirements that handwashing stations alone cannot always satisfy. They meet 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which calls for washing facilities with soap and towels or hand drying. Trailers cost more upfront but save money if you'd buy multiple portable units plus handwashing. For a week-long event in Weston, a trailer often beats four standard units and a sink.
What's included in septic pumping service?
Our septic pumping service empties the tank, inspects it for damage, and hauls waste to a licensed treatment facility. A residential tank typically gets pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on tank size and household size. If you run a restaurant or food service in Weston, a grease interceptor needs pumping when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth. Pumping costs $150 to $250 per job. If your tank is backing up, draining slowly, or you smell sewage, call now; read Septic Tank Warning Signs to spot trouble early. Don't wait for a failure.
What if I need a dumpster, storage container and porta potties all at once?
We rent them all. A roll-off dumpster handles debris and costs $426 to $600 per week. A storage container holds tools and materials for $100 to $125 per month. Portable toilets run $130 to $200 per week. You can book each service on its own schedule and bill to the same account. Many construction crews in Weston use all three.
Can I place a portable toilet in my front yard or on the street?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city. Private property is yours to decide. A standard unit needs firm, level ground. We can deliver to a driveway, yard or job site. Call us with your address and we'll confirm what works.
How often does Weston Porta Pros service units?
One visit per week is our baseline for up to 10 users over a 40-hour week, per ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, the standard for portable sanitation service. High-traffic events need more frequent service. We can schedule daily, twice weekly, or weekly based on your count and use. Let us know your timeline when you book.
What if I have an emergency on a weekend?
We offer weekend and emergency service. Call and we'll respond. Weekend rates are higher than weekday rates because we staff for unpredictable demand. Most jobs can wait until Monday, but if yours can't, we're ready; see Emergency Porta Potty Rental for details.
