Job sites follow OSHA. OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 requires 1 unit for up to 20 workers, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 to 199 workers, and 1 per 50 workers at 200 or more. Hand washing has to be available where the work involves contaminants.
Events run on planning ratios rather than regulation. The common starting point is 1 unit per 50 guests for a 4 hour event, then more units as the hours and headcount climb, plus roughly 15 percent extra when alcohol is served.
A service visit pumps the tank, washes the interior, restocks the paper and adds fresh deodoriser. Weekly covers roughly 100 uses, which is about 10 workers across a five day week.
What do Athens organisers need to know?
Set units on firm, level ground in Athens. Soft or sloping ground lets a unit settle or tip, and a gravel pad or a sheet of plywood under the base solves it cheaply.
The access rule is simple and worth designing around: within about 25 feet of where the truck can stop. Courtyards and rear lots on Athens sites frequently fail it.
Order enough standard units and the ADA unit stays available for the people who need it. Accessible units get used by everyone when the queue at the standard units is long, which is a capacity problem rather than a signage one.
Event pricing in Athens is per unit per day and includes delivery and collection. Job site pricing is monthly, which is why the cost per day is so much lower.

Short events in Athens cost more per unit per day than long job site rentals, because the delivery and collection trip is spread across fewer days.

Athens porta potty questions
Do restroom trailers need power and water?
Most do. Trailers typically need a standard power connection and either a water hookup or an onboard fresh water tank, and they need level ground to sit on.
Do you supply the units yourselves?
No. We are a free referral service. Your call connects you with an independent local provider who owns the units and handles delivery and servicing.
How many hand wash stations should I order?
One per three to four units is the normal ratio. Go to one per two units for food service, weddings or anywhere children are present.
How much is a porta potty for one day in Athens?
A standard unit for a one day event typically runs $150 to $275 delivered and collected. Flushable deluxe units cost more, and trailers are priced per day in the hundreds to low thousands.
How much notice do you need for a Athens job site?
A few days is usually enough for a standard unit. Trailers, ADA units and large multi unit orders need longer, particularly in peak season.
