What Is a Standard Porta Potty Rental?
This is the unit most people picture when they hear "porta potty." Delray Beach Porta Pros stocks the standard unit at about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and roughly 92 inches tall, so it fits tight side yards and job site corners without eating up space you need for materials or equipment. Inside sits a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, enough capacity to get most crews through a standard weekly service interval under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which sets the baseline at one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. If your crew is bigger or your event runs longer, you'll want more units or tighter service, and that's worth working out before delivery day, not after. For a broader look at how this compares to other options, see our full portable toilet rental page, or the flushable deluxe flushable porta potty if your crew wants a step up. Homeowners doing a kitchen gut or roof job often start here too; check home renovation porta potty for that use case specifically.
How Much Does a Standard Porta Potty Rental Cost?
Price depends on rental length, how many units, and where the site sits relative to our delivery routes. Here's what the standard unit runs across common rental windows:
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $100 | $150 | $350 |
| Weekend | $125 | $250 | $400 |
| Week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| Month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
| Event | $200 | $400 | $800 |
Delivery is usually billed separately, and that fee runs 50 to 150 dollars for a weekly job or 120 to 420 dollars if you're renting monthly. For a deeper breakdown of what drives cost up or down, our porta potty rental cost page walks through the variables, and porta potty rental per day is worth a look if you're only renting for a short job.

How Many Standard Units Do I Need?
For construction crews, OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the baseline: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you cross that threshold, scaling again at 200 or more. That's a headcount rule, not a guess, and it's the number an inspector will actually check. Agricultural operations follow a different standard: OSHA 1928.110 requires one facility per 20 hand-labor employees, and it has to sit within a quarter mile walk of where people are working, which matters more for growers near western Delray Beach than it does for a downtown remodel. Our how many porta potties do i need guide runs the math for events, weddings and multi-day festivals too, since those numbers don't follow the OSHA table at all. If you're staffing a jobsite and need the full regulatory rundown, osha portable toilet requirements covers it in more depth than we can here. Need water on top of toilets? OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) also requires an adequate supply of potable water at any place of employment, which is a separate ask from the toilet itself.
Do I Need an ADA Unit Instead of Standard?
If it's a public event or a job site with public access, likely yes for at least one unit. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that where portable toilets are clustered, at least 5 percent of the units, and never fewer than one, has to be accessible. That means a wider door, more interior turning space, and grab bars, features the standard 44 by 48 inch unit doesn't have. See ada accessible porta potty for specs and pricing, since it's a different unit and a different rate than what's listed above. Placement matters too: ADA Standards section 405.2 caps ramp slope at 1:12, so if the ground isn't flat where you want the unit, that changes where it can go. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground conditions, clearance and access routes for both standard and ADA units. If your event draws from Highland Beach, 4.8 miles southeast, or Gulf Stream at 6.0 miles northeast, plan ADA access from the start rather than adding it after the layout's set.

How long can I rent a standard porta potty?
As short as a single day or as long as a full season. Day rentals suit quick jobs; weekly and monthly rates drop the per-day cost significantly for longer construction projects. Most Delray Beach contractors rent monthly and re-up as the job extends. See monthly porta potty rental for how that pricing works.
What's the difference between standard and deluxe units?
Standard units have no flush and no sink; deluxe units add a flushable toilet and sometimes a hand-wash basin. Deluxe runs higher, from 85 to 1200 dollars daily depending on features. Check deluxe flushable porta potty for full specs before deciding which fits your crew or event.
Do standard units get serviced during the rental?
Yes. Service follows the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit weekly for typical usage, though high-traffic sites need more frequent pumping. Our how often are porta potties cleaned page explains how service frequency scales with headcount and rental length.
Can I place a standard unit on the street in Delray Beach?
Right-of-way placement needs confirming with the city before delivery. We can advise once we see your site, but don't assume street placement is automatically allowed. Check porta potty permit requirements for what to ask the city before your delivery date.
Is delivery included in the rental price?
No, delivery is billed separately from the unit rental. Fees range from 50 dollars for weekly delivery up to several hundred for rush or weekend jobs. See porta potty rental cost for how delivery fees stack against unit pricing.
