How many portable toilets do I need?
It depends on the number of people and how long they'll be there. For construction sites, OSHA 1926.51(c) requires 1 toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 up to 200. Events follow different math: a 4-hour festival with 200 guests needs more units than a 10-person wedding. Learn how to calculate your exact count. Saint George building contractors often rent 2 to 4 units for framing crews. We'll help you size it right on the first call.
What does a standard porta potty cost?
A standard porta potty rental in Saint George runs between 100 and 350 dollars per day, depending on the rental length and your location. Weekly rates drop to 130 to 500 dollars. Monthly pricing sits at 125 to 325 dollars. These bands reflect a week of service with one pump-out visit included. A delivery fee of 50 to 150 dollars per week applies most rentals. See our porta potty rental cost page for exact quotes on your dates.
What about ADA accessible units?
An ADA accessible porta potty meets ADA Standards section 213.2, which requires at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units to be accessible, and never fewer than one. The unit itself has a 36-inch minimum clear width under ADA Standards section 403.5.1 and a 32-inch door opening under section 404.2.3. A 60-inch turning circle per ADA Standards section 304.3.1 is required inside. Day rates run 200 to 400 dollars. Saint George events and construction sites often need one accessible unit mixed in with standard ones. We deliver and service them the same week.
What do you offer besides portable toilets?
Saint George Porta Pros rents roll-off dumpsters from 10 to 40 yards, restroom trailers with 2 to 8 stalls, storage containers for equipment and materials, temporary fencing, handwashing stations and septic pumping. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years. Dumpsters work for demolition, landscaping and construction cleanup. Trailers serve events and multi-week jobs where regular toilets won't fit the budget. Handwashing stations must include soap and towels or a hand drying device under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), and are required where employees are engaged in applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1).
How is placement handled in Saint George?
Call us before you order so we can confirm your site layout. A standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands about 92 inches tall. A roll-off dumpster delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before we drop it. We serve Santa Clara 7.0 miles northwest and Washington 7.8 miles northeast if you're just outside Saint George. Most residential driveways and commercial lots work fine. We'll tell you what won't fit.
How often is a portable toilet serviced?
Once per week as standard. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets the baseline interval at one service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. High-traffic events may need more. We pump the 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, restock supplies and sanitize. You can add extra visits for festivals or construction sites with heavy use.
Can I rent a porta potty for just one day?
Yes. Day rentals start at 100 to 350 dollars depending on unit type and location. Delivery fees apply. Weekend and holiday rates are higher than weekday rates. Call us with your exact dates.
What can't go in a dumpster?
Hazardous materials, paint, batteries, tires, asbestos and propane tanks are prohibited. Read our full restrictions. Most construction debris, yard waste and household items are fine. We'll weigh the load and charge overage if you exceed the limit.
How do I know if my septic tank needs pumping?
Signs include slow drainage, wet spots in the yard, sewage odors and backups in the house. See our warning signs guide. A grease interceptor is pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth. Don't wait for emergencies.
Do I need a permit for a portable toilet?
It depends on placement and duration. Confirm placement rules with the city before we deliver. We handle most of the logistics, but right-of-way placement requires city sign-off. Check our permit guide for details on your type of job.
