How much does porta potty rental cost in Merced?
Price depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A standard toilet is the cheapest option. A deluxe flushable unit costs more because it has a foot pump and a sink. A restroom trailer sits at the top of the range. See our full porta potty rental cost breakdown for the details, or check the per-day rate if your job is short.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| ADA | $200 | $240 | - |
| Deluxe flushable | $150 | $250 | - |
Delivery runs $100 to $500 depending on distance and access. A weekend standard unit runs about $250. Compare a monthly rental if the project runs long, since the per-day math changes.
What kinds of porta potties can I rent?
Start with the standard porta potty. It is the workhorse for construction and casual events. Some people call it a porta john or a portable toilet. Same thing. A standard unit measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall.
Want something nicer? The deluxe flushable unit has a flush and a hand-wash basin inside. For a wedding or a corporate day, a luxury restroom trailer or a portable restroom with real fixtures reads far better. We rent 2-stall, 4-stall and 8-stall trailers, plus a shower trailer when crews stay overnight. Need one accessible? The ADA unit meets ADA Standards 213.2, which requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster.

Do I need an ADA or handwashing unit on site?
If you cluster single-user units, ADA Standards 213.2 says at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, must be accessible. That accessible unit needs a 60 inch turning circle under ADA Standards 304.3.1 and a 36 inch clear route under ADA Standards 403.5.1. See the ADA restroom requirements guide for the full list.
Handwashing is its own question. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities need soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it. If your crew applies paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities on that job. We rent handwashing stations, portable sinks and sanitizer stands. Read the handwashing requirements before you order.

How many porta potties does my job need?
OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the construction baseline: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers above that. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 puts the service interval at one visit per week for up to 10 users on a 40 hour week. Our how many porta potties do I need page does the math with you.
Events count differently than job sites. A festival with beer needs more units than a quiet wedding. We size event restrooms, festival and concert setups, marathon courses and county fair restrooms. For crews, the construction site services page pairs toilets with the OSHA portable toilet requirements you have to meet. Bring us a headcount and hours and we settle on a number.

What else can Merced Porta Pros deliver?
We are not just toilets. Doing a teardown? A roll-off dumpster hauls the debris, and a roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck. Pick a 10 yard, 20 yard or 30 yard box, or check the dumpster sizes and dimensions chart first.
Septic work too. A residential tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank and household size, so book septic pumping before it backs up and watch for septic tank warning signs. Restaurants get grease trap pumping once fats and solids hit 25 percent of the liquid depth. We also rent storage containers, temporary fencing and light towers. Need it fast in Merced?

Can I put a porta potty in the public right of way?
