A standard porta potty in Portsmouth Heights runs about $150 for a day, $200 for a week and roughly $200 a month on a construction rental. Delivery, service and pickup are usually billed on top. Deluxe flushable units, ADA models and restroom trailers cost more. Read on for the full breakdown of portable toilet rental cost by unit and duration, including what it takes to rent a porta potty here.
Most people who want to rent a porta potty here start with a standard porta potty, and the daily rate sits near the middle of a wide band. Rent porta potty prices vary by unit and term, so how much a porta potty rental runs depends on what you pick. A one-day event drop is priced differently than a month on a job site. Longer rentals cost more in total but less per day, because the weekly and monthly rates spread the service visits out.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| Deluxe flushable | $250 | $290 | -- |
| ADA accessible | $200 | $240 | -- |
| Restroom trailer | $800 | $1,397 | -- |
| Delivery fee | $100 | $100 | $172 |
| Service fee | $60 | $60 | $150 |
The porta potty rental per day figure is the price for portable toilet rental most people want first, and it answers how much a portable toilet rental costs for a single day. A basic unit sits near $150 a day in this market, though a single-day event drop can climb higher once delivery and pickup are added. That single unit holds a 60 to 70 gallon tank, which is why one toilet covers a small crew comfortably for a work shift.
If you need it over a Saturday and Sunday, a standard weekend rate lands around $250. A deluxe flushable model on a weekend runs higher. For anything past a few days, ask about the weekly rate instead, because paying by the day adds up fast. Portsmouth Heights job sites almost always go weekly or monthly. See the monthly rental page for long-run pricing.
These three lines are separate from the rental itself, and that trips people up. Delivery covers the drive out and the drop. A roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, and a toilet delivery wants a firm, level spot per ADA Standards section 302.1, which calls for stable, firm surfaces.
Service is the weekly clean-out and restock. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40-hour week. Pickup is the return trip at the end. On a monthly job, the service fee recurs; on a one-day event it usually does not. When you request a quote, ask us to itemize all three so nothing surprises you at the end.
Same word, different unit. When you rent a portable restroom, a portable toilet rental can mean a bare-bones single or a luxury restroom trailer, and portable toilet rental costs between them differ enormously. Unit type is the biggest driver. A deluxe flushable has a foot pump and a sink; a plain port o john rental does not, and you can rent a porta john for less than a deluxe.
Duration matters next. Distance is third. Portsmouth Heights is our home base, but a drop out to Chesapeake, 20.5 miles south, carries more drive time than one across town. Carrollton sits 15.8 miles northwest and Smithfield is 20.7 miles the same way. Service frequency is the last big lever: a heavy-use festival may need cleaning more than once a week, and that raises the total cost.
An ADA accessible porta potty costs more than a standard because it is bigger and built to a code. ADA Standards section 404.2.3 requires a 32 inch clear door opening, and section 304.3.1 requires a 60 inch turning circle inside. That extra floor space is why the daily rate runs higher than a basic unit.
If you cluster single-user units at an event, ADA Standards section 213.2 says at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, must be accessible. The deluxe flushable sits in a different price tier again, with the daily rate spanning a very wide band depending on the event. For a wedding or upscale gathering, most people skip the single unit and rent a restroom trailer instead. Portsmouth Heights hosts plenty of both.
A restroom trailer is the big jump on the price sheet. Daily rates start near $800 and climb steeply for a full event booking. A 2 stall trailer is the entry point; a 4 stall or 8 stall covers larger crowds. A shower trailer is a separate unit again.
Trailers need power and a level pad. On a construction site, OSHA 1926.404(b)(1)(ii) calls for ground fault protection, so plan the hookup with that in mind. A temporary power pole covers it if the site lacks service. For a wedding or a concert, the weekly trailer rate makes more sense than stacking daily charges. Portsmouth Heights event planners usually book the trailer well ahead, because our nicer units move fast in season. See trailer cost for a full breakdown.
Count matters because you pay per unit. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the construction ratio: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers above that. Our how many porta potties guide walks the math, and the OSHA requirements page has the full table.
Add a handwashing station where crews handle paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, because OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that work. A portable sink must carry soap and towels under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2); hand sanitizer alone does not meet it. Events scale by headcount and hours, not by code, so a county fair or marathon needs more units than a small home renovation job in Portsmouth Heights.
A fair quote names the unit, the rental term, the service interval, and the delivery and pickup lines separately. No vague single number. Here are three worked scenarios using this city's rates.
A weekend backyard party: one standard unit at the weekend rate near $250, plus a weekend delivery fee, one drop and one pickup, no recurring service. A month-long remodel: one standard unit at the monthly rate around $200, one weekly service visit, plus delivery and pickup. A two-day festival with an ADA unit: several standards, one accessible unit near the ADA daily rate, and extra cleaning built in.
Need it fast? Our emergency rental line covers short-notice drops. If you also need a dumpster or storage container, bundling the delivery saves a trip. Contact us or check the FAQ to line up the details.
A standard single runs about $150 for a day in Portsmouth Heights, before delivery and pickup. A single-day event drop can price higher once the round trip is added. Ask for the per-day rate itemized so you see each line when you rent a porta john or a standard unit.
Yes, per day it is. Port o potties for rent by the week cost less per day: a weekly standard rate spreads the service visit and the trip charges across more days, so the daily cost drops sharply. Anything past three or four days should go weekly. Longer monthly rentals lower the per-day figure further.
The rental covers the unit and one weekly service under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which is clean-out, restock and deodorize. Delivery, service and pickup show as separate lines. A deluxe unit adds a sink and flush. Extra cleaning visits cost more per stop.
Placement on private property in Portsmouth Heights usually does not need one. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city first, and we do not quote a fee we cannot verify. See the permit guide and the placement guide before you book.
An ADA accessible unit runs higher than a standard because of its size and the 36 inch clear route it needs under ADA Standards section 403.5.1. At a clustered event, section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit. Rates land near the ADA band shown above.
A luxury restroom trailer for a wedding starts near $800 a day and climbs toward the event rate for a full weekend booking. A 2 stall suits small guest lists; larger crowds want a 4 stall. Book early in season.
Yes. Bundling a roll-off dumpster, a temporary fence or a handwashing station on one delivery saves separate trip charges. Job sites in Portsmouth Heights often pair a construction dumpster with the toilets. Ask when you request a quote.
