How much does a porta potty cost to rent in San Bernardino?
The short answer for how much a portable toilet rental costs is $150 for a day and around $200 for a week on a standard porta potty rental. People search rent porta potty prices and portable toilet rental cost, and the honest price for portable toilet rental starts at that daily figure. Month rates hold near $200 because service is folded in. If you want flush and a sink inside, look at a deluxe flushable porta potty, which starts higher. Wheelchair users need an ADA accessible porta potty, and ADA Standards section 213.2 says at least 5 percent of clustered units, never fewer than one, must be accessible. San Bernardino Porta Pros quotes the unit, the delivery, and the service as separate lines so you see where the money goes. For a plain-English breakdown, our porta potty rental cost guide and the request a quote page get you a firm number fast. Want to rent a porta potty for one day? A single toilet rental is the cheapest way in, and it answers how much does portable toilet rental cost for most quick jobs.
What does a porta potty rental cost by unit and duration?
Here are the bands we quote inside. Weekly beats daily, monthly beats weekly, because a longer job means more service visits packed into one price. Weekend is a short-term premium and sits in prose below, not in this table.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| Deluxe flushable | $250 | $290 | - |
| ADA accessible | $200 | $240 | - |
| Restroom trailer | $800 | $1,397 | - |
A standard unit rents for about $250 over a weekend. An ADA unit runs near $240 for a weekend, and a restroom trailer around $2,000. Event pricing on a standard event porta potty lands near $400. Check the per-day rate or the monthly rental if your timeline is set. A porta john is the same standard unit under a different name, so a port o john rental or rent a porta john request quotes the same band. Port o potties for rent price the same way whatever you call them.
What are the delivery, service, and pickup fees?
These are separate from the rental. Delivery covers the truck bringing the unit out; pickup covers hauling it back. Service is the weekly clean and pump-out. We break them out so nothing hides in a flat number.
| Fee | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delivery | $100 | $120 | $172 |
| Service | $60 | $100 | $150 |
Service on a standard rental follows ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which sets one visit a week as the baseline for up to 10 users on a 40 hour week. Each visit pumps the 60 to 70 gallon tank and restocks. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), a washing station has to carry soap and towels, so if you add a handwashing station rental or a portable sink, that is stocked too. Ask on the contact page how many visits your headcount needs. Heavy use means more stops. Our cleaning frequency guide explains the math.
Why do porta potty prices change from quote to quote?
Four things move the number. Unit type is the biggest: a deluxe flushable unit costs more than a basic portable toilet because it flushes and holds fresh water. Rental length is next, and a longer monthly rental spreads service across more weeks. Distance matters too. We are in San Bernardino, so a drop in Muscoy 4.7 miles west is a shorter run than Yucaipa 21.8 miles southeast. Headcount drives service frequency under OSHA 1926.51(c), which sets one toilet for up to 20 workers on a jobsite. Add access. A roll-off style delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance, and a restroom trailer needs level ground and sometimes power. Our placement guide and rental checklist walk you through it before we quote.
How much does a portable toilet cost for a construction job?
For a crew, price the construction site services around headcount. OSHA 1926.51(c) requires one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers as you scale past 20. A standard unit on a monthly rate is the workhorse here. San Bernardino sites often pair one standard toilet with a handwashing station. When crews apply coatings or herbicides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities on top of the toilet count, so budget a sink line too. Longer builds save with month pricing. See OSHA portable toilet requirements and how many units you need to size it. A construction dumpster and a storage container often ride the same delivery, which trims the truck fees.
What does an event or wedding restroom cost?
Events price by the day or by the event window, and the number climbs with guest count and comfort level. A backyard party is fine with a standard event unit near the event rate above. To rent a portable restroom with more comfort, a wedding usually wants a deluxe flushable unit or a luxury restroom trailer with real sinks and lighting. For a wedding restroom rental, we size stalls to the peak, not the average. A 2 stall trailer suits small gatherings; a 4 stall trailer or an 8 stall trailer covers a festival or a concert. ADA Standards section 404.2.3 sets a 32 inch minimum clear door on accessible units, so guests using wheelchairs get in. Planning a county fair, a marathon, or a golf tournament? Get event pricing on the trailer cost page.
Are restroom trailers worth the higher cost?
They cost more, and for the right job they earn it. A restroom trailer runs by the day, week, or event, well above a single standard unit, because it brings flushing toilets, sinks, climate control, and interior lighting. OSHA 1926.56(a) sets minimum illumination on work areas, and a lit trailer clears that bar for a night event. Weddings, film sets, and corporate days lean on the luxury restroom trailer or a shower trailer. ADA Standards section 304.3.1 calls for a 60 inch turning circle inside an accessible stall, and full trailers have the room. If you only need basic sanitation for a short job, a standard unit or a deluxe flushable is the cheaper, smarter buy. A film set restroom crew almost always books the trailer. Compare on the restroom trailer cost page.
What do three real San Bernardino quotes look like?
Here are three worked examples, built from the bands above.
A home remodel in San Bernardino: one home renovation porta potty on a monthly rate near $200, plus one delivery around $172 and monthly service near $150. Pair it with a 10 yard dumpster and the truck fee splits.
A 40-person crew in Colton 8.9 miles south: two standard units to satisfy OSHA 1926.51(c), a handwashing station for coatings work under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1), weekly service near $60 a visit. Distance keeps delivery reasonable.
A 200-guest wedding: a 4 stall trailer at the event rate, one ADA unit to meet ADA Standards section 213.2, delivery and pickup as their own lines. See the full cost breakdown or hit request a quote.
How much is the cheapest porta potty rental?
A standard unit on a daily rate is the floor at about $150, before delivery. A weekly rental lowers the per-day cost. Delivery and service are separate lines, so ask on the quote page for your exact total.
Does a longer rental cost less per day?
Yes. A monthly rental spreads service across more weeks, so the per-day cost drops below the daily rate. A one-day drop pays the full delivery and pickup on a single use. For any job over a week, the standard monthly rate is the better value.
Is delivery included in the price?
No. San Bernardino Porta Pros lists delivery, service, and pickup as separate lines from the unit rental. That keeps the quote honest. Distance moves the delivery fee, so a drop in Highland 9.7 miles east costs a touch more than one across town. See the placement guide.
How much does an ADA porta potty cost?
An ADA accessible unit runs above a standard toilet, around the daily and weekly bands in the table. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster. Event planners in San Bernardino should budget one so every guest can use the restrooms.
Do I need a permit and does it cost extra?
Placement on private property usually does not. Placing a unit in the public right of way needs confirming with the City of San Bernardino, and we cannot name a rule or fee here. Check our permit requirements page and call the city before you book.
What moves the price the most?
Unit type first, then rental length, then distance and headcount. A deluxe flushable costs more than a basic toilet. A drop in Loma Linda 10.8 miles south costs a bit more to reach. More users means more service visits under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3.
Can I rent other gear on the same delivery?
Yes, and it saves on truck fees. Add a roll-off dumpster, a temporary fence, a storage container, or a light tower to one drop. We also run septic pumping in San Bernardino. Bundle it on the quote page or ask about the service areas we cover.
