How much does porta potty rental cost in Norfolk?
Price depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A standard porta potty is the cheapest way to cover a crew or a backyard job. Step up to a deluxe flushable unit or an ADA accessible model and the day rate climbs. Weekend event rates sit higher than weekday rates because it is short-term. Here is the range we work inside.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 100 to 350 | 130 to 500 | 125 to 325 |
| Deluxe flushable | 85 to 1200 | 150 to 290 | quote |
| ADA accessible | 200 to 400 | 120 to 240 | quote |
A standard unit rented for a weekend runs about 250 dollars. See the full porta potty rental cost breakdown or check the per day rate if it is a one-day job. For weeks-long work, the monthly rental is the cheaper path per day.
What is included with a standard porta potty rental?
Every standard unit ships with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, a seat, a urinal and a vent stack. The footprint is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and it stands roughly 92 inches tall, so plan your gate clearance. We handle delivery, weekly pump-and-clean and pickup. Under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, one service visit a week is the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Busier sites get more.
That standard unit is what most people mean by a porta john or a portable toilet. Same thing, different name. If you want a nicer setup for guests, the portable restroom line and the deluxe flushable porta potty add a flush and a sink. Not sure how many to order? Our how many do I need guide walks the math, and the placement guide covers where it should sit.
What does OSHA require on a Norfolk construction site?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the count. One toilet for 20 workers or fewer. From 20 up, one seat and one urinal per 40 workers. At 200 workers or more, one seat and one urinal per 50. That is the floor, not a suggestion, and we size construction site services to hit it.
Water matters too. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires potable water at every workplace, and 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) says washing facilities need soap and towels or a dryer, not just sanitizer. A crew spraying herbicides or coatings triggers OSHA 1926.51(f)(1), which means real washing at the point of the work. Add a handwashing station or a portable sink for that. The full rules live on our OSHA requirements and handwashing requirements pages.
Do you rent fancy units for weddings and events?
Yes. For a wedding or an upscale party, the luxury restroom trailer beats a single unit by a mile. Flushing toilets, sinks, lighting, climate control. We stock a 2 stall trailer, a 4 stall trailer and an 8 stall trailer for bigger headcounts, plus a shower trailer when guests stay overnight.
Trailer day rates run 175 to 2500 dollars depending on size, and a full event package sits higher. See the restroom trailer cost page for the numbers. General event restroom rental covers festivals, concerts, races and golf tournaments. Where a group clusters single units, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent be accessible, and never fewer than one. We size the ADA unit count for you.
What else can you deliver with the toilets in Norfolk?
One call covers the whole site. We run roll-off dumpsters in 10, 20, 30 and 40 yard sizes. A roll-off truck needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind it to set the box down. Check the dumpster sizes chart and what cannot go in a dumpster before you load.
We also do septic pumping. A home tank gets pumped every 3 to 5 years by size and household, and a grease interceptor at 25 percent of liquid depth. Watch for warning signs and know how often to book. Round it out with storage containers, a 20ft box, temporary fencing and light towers. We reach Hampton 12.6 miles north and Chesapeake 23.0 miles south. Request a quote or hit contact.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you deliver a porta potty in Norfolk?
Most orders drop within a day or two. For a burst or a broken unit, our emergency rental moves faster. We cover Norfolk and run out to Poquoson 25.3 miles north and Carrollton 25.6 miles west from the service areas list.
Do I need a permit to place a porta potty?
On private property, usually not. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the City of Norfolk before we set anything down. We do not guess at local rules. Our permit requirements page explains what to ask and who to call.
How often do you clean the unit?
The baseline is one service visit a week under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, sized for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Heavy sites get more frequent stops. See how often porta potties are cleaned and do porta potties smell for the details.
What size dumpster do I need for a home cleanout?
A 10 or 20 yard box handles most home projects. Bigger renovations lean 30 or 40 yard. Watch the weight limits so you do not overload. The dumpster cost page shows day, week and month pricing.
Can I rent a nicer unit for a small backyard event?
Yes. A deluxe flushable unit gives guests a flush and a sink without the trailer price. For a home renovation or a camping trip, the standard unit is plenty. Check the rental checklist before you book.
