Porta Potty Rentals FAQ

Same-day delivery is possible when a unit and a truck slot are open on today's routes. Call (386) 355-9789 early in the day. A rush fee may apply, and the dispatcher quotes it before you confirm.

Next-day delivery is usually open. Orders confirmed by mid-afternoon are the easiest to place on tomorrow's route.

One to two business days covers most orders. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for busy spring and fall weekends, and 3 to 6 months ahead for restroom trailers on wedding Saturdays.

Saturday deliveries run from 7am to 7pm. Sunday delivery is not scheduled. For a Sunday event, the unit arrives on Saturday or Friday.

Weekend event units are delivered Friday, or Thursday when Friday is full, and picked up Monday. After a holiday weekend, pickup is Tuesday. The flat event price covers those days.

Morning-of delivery can be arranged at an added charge, because it holds a driver to a set time. It is useful for parks that do not allow overnight units.

A Saturday evening pickup can sometimes be added for an extra charge. Monday pickup is included in the event price.

There is no fixed appointment time. The driver calls about 30 to 60 minutes before arriving. Add a note if you prefer morning or afternoon.

You do not need to be home. Mark the spot with a cone or flag, unlock the gate or share the code, and keep your phone on.

Rural lots are fine. Send a map pin or GPS coordinates, the nearest road and a landmark, or meet the driver at the road.

A date can be reserved and moved later with at least 24 hours' notice before delivery, at no charge.

We deliver to every town in Putnam County and to job sites and venues up to 80 miles from Palatka, across 20 counties. Give us your ZIP code to confirm.

A standard event unit starts around $175 and a 28-day job-site unit around $185 with weekly service. Delivery is priced by distance from Palatka. See the pricing guide for every unit.

The event price covers the whole event period, up to 5 days from delivery to pickup. There is no daily rate.

Unit prices are per unit. Delivery is one charge for the whole order.

Your quote lists delivery and pickup as their own lines next to the unit price, so the total shows everything.

The itemized quote lists every charge: unit, delivery, pickup, any rush fee, extra service and sales tax. Nothing is added after delivery unless you change the order or the unit is damaged.

Sales tax is shown as its own line on the quote. Tax-exempt groups can send their Florida exemption certificate to have it removed.

Delivery is priced by miles from our Palatka yard. Addresses in Putnam County cost the least to reach.

Prices depend on your ZIP code, dates and unit, so a quick call or the quote form gets an exact number faster than a list.

Orders of 3 or more units, churches, nonprofits, military families and repeat contractors can ask about discounted pricing.

Weekday delivery for a weekend event is included in the event price. Saturday-only or set-time deliveries cost more.

Event rentals are paid in full at booking to hold the date. Monthly rentals are charged at the start of each 28-day cycle.

Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express, debit or credit, by phone or secure payment link. Business accounts can be invoiced. Cash is not accepted.

A booking is held once payment is made. If you need to pay later, the delivery date moves with the payment.

A quote is held for a short time, usually a few days. Prices on busy weekends can rise as units book up.

A standard unit has a toilet, urinal and sanitizer. A sink unit adds a foot-pump sink. A deluxe unit adds a flush. An accessible unit fits a wheelchair. A restroom trailer has stalls, flush toilets, lights and air conditioning.

A seat over a 60-gallon tank, a urinal, two paper holders, hand sanitizer, a mirror, a vent pipe and a lockable door with an occupied sign.

A standard unit has hand sanitizer but no sink. Add a hand wash station outside, or choose a sink or deluxe unit.

A deluxe flushing unit needs no hookups. Flush and sink water ride in its own tank, good for roughly 75 flushes.

A standard unit is about 43.5 inches wide, 47 inches deep and 91 inches tall. The wheelchair-accessible unit is about 62 inches square.

Standard, sink and deluxe units share the same footprint. The accessible unit is the largest, with room for a wheelchair or a parent and child.

About 50 party guests over 5 hours, or 10 workers for a week with weekly service. Use the calculator for your count.

Porta potties let in daylight but have no lights. Hang a battery tap light for evening events, or choose a restroom trailer.

Most units are blue, gray or tan. Ask about pink units for showers and parties.

Units are set on the ground by our truck. Customers do not tow them. Moves on the same site happen on a service visit.

A photo of the unit type can be texted or emailed before delivery.

Event units are kept separate from job-site units, so party and wedding guests get newer-looking, event-only units.

Monthly and job-site rentals include a weekly service: pump, wash, sanitize and restock. Multi-day events get daily service.

Weekly is the minimum under Florida rules. Busy sites can add a second weekly visit.

An event rental of one day arrives clean and leaves after the event without service. Events longer than one day get daily service, as Florida requires.

A mid-event service can be added to a reunion, festival or multi-day wedding. Trailers get a pump, clean, restock and water refill.

Service runs on a fixed weekly day. Leave a gate code, or ask for a text before the visit.

Units are restocked at each visit. Job-site units get large industrial rolls. Ask for spare rolls for long events.

Call dispatch. Florida heat speeds up odor, so a busy unit may need a second weekly service or a shaded spot. We send a service as soon as a route allows.

Placement is your choice as long as the spot is level, firm and within about 10 feet of where the truck can park.

Backyard placement works when the gate is at least 4 feet wide and the ground is firm. The service truck must also reach it every week.

Units at open or coastal sites can be staked or strapped. Before a named storm, call to secure or remove units.

A padlock or combination lock can be added. Share the code for service days.

Normal wear is on us. Damage from fire, vandalism or misuse while the unit is on your site may be charged. Locking the unit helps.

Drivers avoid pavers, sprinklers and soft ground you point out. Mark hidden items before delivery, because unmarked items cannot be avoided.

Private property usually needs no permit. Public events, streets and sidewalks may need city or county approval. See Florida porta potty rules.

Book a same-day drop and pickup. It costs more because a driver is held to set times.

A restroom trailer when the venue has power and level ground, or deluxe flushing units when it does not. Plan 1 toilet per 50 guests plus 1 for an open bar.

A restroom trailer looks like an indoor bathroom. A deluxe flushing unit is a step up from a standard unit in look and feel.

Bookings a year or more ahead are welcome. Lock the date now and change the count later.

A quote can be held for a short time. Popular weekends fill first, so book once the date is firm.

Often it is. A 28-day rental with weekly service can cost less than monthly delivery and pickup. Ask for both prices.

Multi-day events use the event price with daily service added, as Florida requires for events.

A second week is priced as a second event period. Past two weeks, a 28-day rental costs less.

From about $185 per 28-day cycle with weekly service included, plus first-cycle delivery and a small pickup fee.

Hand wash stations can be added to any job. Florida requires 1 per 10 restrooms.

Rentals can be set up under your company name, with job names and PO numbers on invoices.

Email the scope to info@palatkaportapotty.com with crew size, start date and duration, and we reply with a quote.

Holding tanks for office trailers can be quoted. Send the fixture count and job length.

Bathroom remodels are one of the most common home rentals, on a 28-day cycle with weekly service.

Call for same-day delivery. If today is full, the next morning is usually open.

A unit can stay for months, renewing every 28 days with weekly service until you call.

A two-week rental is billed as one 28-day cycle. Call when you are done and we pick it up.

Seasonal and year-round units are common at farms, barns and camps, on monthly cycles.

Call before the next 28-day cycle starts. Billing stops on the confirmed pickup date.

Cancel at least 24 hours before scheduled delivery for a full refund. Later cancellations may carry a trip fee. Full terms are on the rental terms page.

Date changes are free with at least 24 hours' notice before delivery, subject to availability.

Call or email with your order number. Tell us if there is a gate code, and leave the unit unlocked.

You receive a digital order confirmation by text or email. Signing it confirms the dates, units, placement notes and terms.

Wheelchair-accessible units are available, with ground-level entry, handrails and a 62-inch-square cabin.

The names describe the same thing: a larger unit a wheelchair can enter and turn around in.

The accessible unit has no sink, because the turning space takes the room. Add a hand wash station beside it.

Two-stall trailers start around $1,500 and four-stall trailers around $2,800 for an event period, before delivery and tax.

Two private stalls, each with a flush toilet and sink, plus mirrors, lights and air conditioning.

A trailer needs a 120-volt outlet and a hose connection. Without them, we add a generator and water tank for an extra charge.

Air conditioning comes only in restroom trailers.
