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.
The two rules are different in kind. The job site figure is a legal minimum you have to meet. The event figure is a planning convention that describes average demand, and average demand is not what forms a queue.
More units on weekly service often costs less than fewer units on twice weekly, and it removes the queue at the peak as well. It is worth pricing both ways for a long Bessemer rental.
Where should units go on a Bessemer site?
On Bessemer sites with vehicle traffic, place units where a reversing truck cannot clip them and where workers do not have to cross a haul route to reach them.
On a long Bessemer rental, choose a position that will still work in month three. Sites change, and repositioning a unit carries a fee.
Wind tips unsecured units, particularly when they are nearly empty. On exposed Bessemer sites they should be staked, or strapped where the ground cannot take a stake.
Trailers need level ground, a route for a tow vehicle and a power supply. Where a Bessemer venue cannot provide all three, deluxe flushable units are the realistic answer.

Distance from the provider yard affects Bessemer pricing on both delivery and every service visit, which is why local providers usually price better on long rentals.

Bessemer porta potty questions
How often will the unit be serviced in Bessemer?
Weekly is the standard on job sites. In summer heat, or with more than about 10 workers per unit, twice weekly keeps the unit usable.
What is included in a service visit?
The tank is pumped, the unit is washed down, the paper is restocked and deodoriser is added. Any damage is noted and reported.
Can units be placed inside a gated site?
Usually, as long as the service truck can get within about 25 feet. Tell the provider about gate codes, soft ground or tight alleys when you book.
What is the difference between standard and flushable units?
A flushable deluxe unit has a foot operated flush, a fresh water sink and a mirror inside. Standard units have a holding tank, a seat and a hand sanitiser dispenser.
How much space does a unit need?
A standard unit occupies roughly 4 by 4 feet with the door opening outward, so allow about 5 by 5 feet of clear area plus access for the service truck.
