As a rule of thumb, it is best to book your Porta Potty rental at least one week in advance. However, we understand that you may not always be able to do so and are still happy to help accommodate last-minute reservations.
Just bear in mind that during our busiest times of the year–usually warmer months–inventory for portable restrooms, restroom trailers or temporary fencing may be limited.
If your project or event is on a large scale, even more lead time is advised so that we can evaluate your needs properly, assign rental assets and deploy resources to your site promptly. To get started today, please call us at (985) 632-5592 or fill out our online form.

To calculate the total rental price for Porta Potties, consider how long your event will be. Will it span hours, days, weeks, or months? The amount of time attendees will use the unit(s) directly impacts how many you should order. Generally speaking, units for weekend events are delivered on a weekday leading up to the date and picked back up on a weekday after the event has concluded. At an additional cost, we offer weekend delivery, service or pickup. Upgrades, like flushing toilet restrooms or restrooms with sinks will be at a higher rental rate than basic Porta Potty rentals. Depending on the size of your public event, A.D.A accessible restrooms might also be required . On construction job sites, the restrooms must follow A.N.S.I." requirements for how many toilets are needed on site; however, if there is only one portable toilet at a location, then that restroom needs to be 5% accessible according to Americans with Disabilities Act standards.

Our portable toilets are the most popular choice for weekend or one-day parties. However, we have many other options available for rent with the ability to only renting for just one day as well.
To ensure that you secure your desired portable restroom and allow for an ample delivery time, it is always best to call at least one week prior to your event.

United Site Services' portable restrooms are wheelchair accessible and compliant with the 'Americans with Disabilities Act'. They have been created to fit the standards outlined by the ADA in order to be used on construction sites, commercial areas, or for special events.
According to the statute, at least one portable toilet unit must be 5% accessible by those with disabilities at each location whenever typical inaccessible units are provided. These accessible units shall also be identified by the International Symbol of Accessibility. Here is an excerpt from the Federal Register relating to 4.1.2 Accessible Site and Exterior Facilities: New Construction relevant to portable restrooms: "The exception is that if portable toilet units are used exclusively by construction personnel who do not require the use of an A.D.A unit, you are not required to comply with this statute." (Federal Register/Vol. 56, No 144/July 26, 1991/Rules and Regulations) For more information about A.D..A guidelines as they relate specifically to portable restrooms, please contact our office or view our Regulations page on our website.
