How much does portable toilet rental cost?
Price depends on unit type and how long you need it. A standard porta potty rental runs cheapest per day but the weekly and monthly rates bring the daily cost down hard if your project runs long. ADA units and deluxe flushable units cost more because they carry more plumbing and more service time. Delivery is a separate line, and most companies including San Bernardino Porta Pros charge it once per drop rather than folding it into the rental. Check the full breakdown on our porta potty rental cost page, or see day-rate specifics on porta potty rental per day if you only need one for a weekend. For anything past 30 days, monthly porta potty rental pricing is a different structure entirely and worth checking before you commit to weekly renewals.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| standard | 100-350 | 130-500 | 125-325 |
| ada | 200-400 | 120-240 | - |
| deluxe | 85-1200 | 150-290 | - |
Delivery typically adds 100 to 500 dollars depending on distance and access, and that fee sits outside the unit price shown above.
What is the difference between standard, deluxe and ADA units?
A standard porta potty rental is the workhorse: about 44 by 48 inches on the ground, roughly 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank. That is what most construction crews and backyard renovation jobs order. A deluxe flushable porta potty adds a flushing mechanism and a nicer interior, and it is what most people mean when they search luxury portable toilet rental or deluxe portable toilet rental for a wedding or graduation party. An ADA accessible porta potty is built wider for wheelchair turning space, per ADA Standards section 304.3.1, which calls for a 60 inch turning circle, and section 404.2.3, which sets minimum door width at 32 inches. If you are clustering units for an event, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent of the cluster to be accessible units, never fewer than one. Some customers search porta john rental or portable toilet rental interchangeably with these terms, and they all point back to the same three unit types.
Why do construction sites need a specific number of units?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the ratio: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you pass 20, dropping to one per 50 workers at 200 or more. That number drives every construction site services quote we write in San Bernardino. Crews doing a home addition near Loma Linda, about 10.8 miles south of San Bernardino, usually land in the one-or-two-unit range. Bigger jobs near Bloomington, 13.0 miles southwest, often need four or five units plus a service schedule to match. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets the baseline service interval at once per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, which is why job sites with more workers need either more units or more frequent pumping. If you are not sure where your crew count lands, our how many porta potties do I need guide walks the math, and the full ratio table lives on OSHA portable toilet requirements.
Where can units be placed and does San Bernardino require a permit?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery day. We don't guess at ordinance numbers here, so if your unit is going on a sidewalk, street shoulder or any city-owned parcel in San Bernardino, call the city first. On private property, placement is about access and stability: ADA Standards section 302.1 requires the ground surface under and around an accessible unit to be stable, firm and slip resistant, and section 403.5.1 sets a minimum 36 inch clear width on the path leading to it. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground conditions, and porta potty permit requirements is the place to start if your job touches any public land. For jobs near Grand Terrace, 9.5 miles south, or Muscoy, 4.7 miles west, our drivers already know most of the local access points, which shortens the planning call.
Beyond single units, we run restroom trailer rental for larger events, roll-off dumpster rental for the debris a renovation generates, and septic pumping service for properties on a tank. A handwashing station rental pairs with any toilet order under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at wash stations, since sanitizer alone does not satisfy that rule. If your crew works with paints, coatings or pesticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities specifically for that contaminant exposure, separate from general toilet counts.
How fast can I get a portable toilet delivered?
Most standard orders in San Bernardino go out same day or next day, depending on your delivery window and how far the site sits from our yard. If you're up against a deadline, our emergency porta potty rental page covers what we need from you to hit a same-day drop.
What is included in the rental price?
The unit price covers the toilet itself and one scheduled service visit per the standard weekly interval. Delivery, pickup and any extra service visits are separate line items, typically 100 to 500 dollars for delivery depending on distance and site access.
Can I rent just one porta potty for a weekend party?
Yes. A single standard unit for a weekend runs in the 125 to 400 dollar range, and a deluxe flushable option costs more but suits a backyard wedding better. See wedding restroom rental for event-specific setup advice.
Do portable toilets need to be near a water line?
No. Standard and deluxe units are self-contained with their own holding tank, so no water or sewer hookup is needed. Our how do porta potties work page explains the tank and service cycle in more detail.
How often are units serviced during a long rental?
Service follows roughly a once-per-week interval for up to 10 users under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, though busier sites need more frequent visits. Full detail on service intervals is on how often are porta potties cleaned.
