Porta Potty Rental Cost: What You'll Really Pay in 2026

A standard porta potty usually costs $150–$300 for a week, including delivery, one service visit and pickup, according to the 2026 cost guide published by the ZTERS rental marketplace. A single day runs about $75–$175, and job-site units on a four-week cycle about $125–$275. Local providers we checked publish figures inside or near those ranges, from $90 a day in Los Angeles to $175 per 28 days in Denver.

Published 2026 weekly ranges: standard $150–$300, construction flushable unit with sink $250–$320, special event unit $150–$200, ADA accessible event unit $200–$275, and a 2-stall restroom trailer $1,070–$4,000 a week (ZTERS). Restroom trailers are usually priced per event: a typical 2-stall is $1,195 plus tax, delivery and fees (Goodyear Event Rentals, Phoenix area, mid-range), and five operators publish $649–$1,600. At the high end, Stahla Services lists $2,799 plus $1,499 setup and $999 pack-up. Some operators include delivery and setup and others charge extra, so compare total quotes.

Usually, within a set radius. Many providers include delivery and pickup within about 25 miles and charge per mile beyond that. Same-day delivery, extra service visits and holiday weekends commonly cost more, so ask for an itemized quote.

A common rule is 1 unit per 50 guests for a 4-hour event, with more for longer events or when alcohol is served. For construction, OSHA requires 1 toilet for up to 20 workers and 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers above that. Use the calculator for your numbers.

For events open to the public, §213.2 Exception 3 of the 2010 ADA Standards says that where single-user portable toilets are clustered at one location, “no more than 5 percent” of the units in each cluster are required to be accessible. The practical reading is at least one accessible unit per cluster. Units used only by construction workers are exempt.
