Phoenix Porta Potty Rentals connects you with vetted local providers who deliver, service, and pick up the portable restrooms, handwash stations, and luxury restroom trailers you rent.
Top 10 Quick Answers
1. How far in advance should I reserve?
Our providers recommend 1–2 weeks for standard units and 3–4 weeks for large events or luxury trailers. Rush/next‑day placement is often possible depending on network availability.
2. How many restrooms do I need?
A common rule of thumb used by our providers is 1 standard unit per 50 guests for up to 4 hours. For job sites, a baseline is 1 unit per 10 workers for a 40‑hour week. Your quote will include a right‑sized recommendation based on headcount, hours, and whether alcohol is served.
3. Who services (pumps/cleans) the units?
Our providers handle all servicing: waste removal, restocking supplies, and sanitizing. Construction rentals usually include weekly service, with options to add more visits.
4. Where can units be placed?
Providers typically place units on any level, accessible surface—pavement, compacted dirt, or gravel—with clear truck access. They’ll help you choose safe, convenient locations away from doors, traffic lanes, and drainage.
5. Do units need power or water?
Standard units are self‑contained. Handwash stations and restroom trailers may require water and/or power. Your matched provider will confirm site needs during scheduling.
6. What areas do you serve?
We match customers across Greater Phoenix/Valley: Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Avondale, Goodyear, Buckeye, and nearby communities. See Areas We Serve.

Yes. Our providers stock ADA‑compliant/wheelchair‑accessible units with wider doors, ramps, and handrails. For public events, we’ll help you plan accessible coverage per local guidance.

Delivery, Placement & Pickup
When do providers deliver and pick up?
Standard delivery is during business hours, with after‑hours/weekend options by request. Your provider coordinates a delivery window.
What site access is required?
A safe approach for the truck (~7–10 ft width clearance) and room to place the unit(s). Unlock gates, remove obstacles, and notify security ahead of time.
Can providers place units on rooftops or inside buildings?
Standard units are designed for ground placement. Special circumstances (rooftops, indoor events) may require compact units, lifts, or trailers—your provider will review feasibility.
Will units damage landscaping?
Providers take care to protect surfaces. Choose a stable, level area and consider mats on turf.
Service, Cleaning & Supplies
What’s included in servicing?
Providers pump tanks, restock supplies (toilet paper, sanitizer), and sanitize contact surfaces. Frequency is set in your agreement and can be adjusted for peak usage.
Can I add extra cleanings during an event?
Yes. Providers often offer on‑call or scheduled mid‑event servicing for festivals, tournaments, and long‑hour events.
What if a unit is damaged or tipped?
Contact the provider immediately. They’ll secure, clean/replace, and service as needed. Additional fees may apply depending on cause.
Unit Types & Options
What units are available through your providers?
- Standard single restrooms (most popular)
- Deluxe/VIP units with sinks or flushing
- ADA/wheelchair‑accessible units
- Handwash stations and hand sanitizer stands
- Holding tanks for office trailers
- Luxury restroom trailers (multi‑stall, climate‑controlled)
Do your providers have child‑friendly or family units?

Do your providers offer climate control?
Luxury trailers often include A/C. Standard units use vented designs; providers can recommend shade placement for comfort.
Events vs. Construction
How do event needs differ from construction?
Events often need more units for shorter windows and extra servicing during peak hours. Construction focuses on consistent weekly service and durable placements over longer periods.
Any sizing tips for events?
Increase counts if serving alcohol, operating over 4–6 hours, or if lines exceed ~5–7 people per unit. Add ADA units and handwash near food areas.
Any sizing tips for job sites?
A common baseline is 1 unit per 10 workers for 40 hours/week with weekly service. Add units for overtime, multiple shifts, or remote areas.
Health, Safety & Compliance
Are units compliant and safe?
Providers supply units that are inspected, sanitized, and stocked. ADA‑compliant options and handwash/sanitizer help meet event health expectations.
Do I need a permit in Phoenix/Maricopa County?
Most private sites don’t need a permit, but public events, parks, or rights‑of‑way may require one. Your provider will advise and can help coordinate with the venue or municipality.
How do providers manage heat and odors?
Expect shaded placement, regular servicing, and deodorizers. Trailers offer A/C for premium comfort.
Billing & Account
Do your providers offer month‑to‑month rentals?
Yes—many providers offer long‑term rentals with scheduled service for construction and seasonal needs.

Often yes. Ask about project or annual agreements—we’ll pair you with providers offering the coverage and pricing you need.

What makes a unit ADA‑compliant?
Ground‑level entry with ramp, wider door, spacious interior for turning, and grab bars. Providers will review site slopes and paths to ensure accessibility.
How many accessible units should I plan for?
Public events often include at least one accessible unit and/or ~5% of total, depending on the event and local guidance. Your quote will include recommendations.
Environment & Sustainability
