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.
Job sites are counted by peak crew, not by project headcount. A La Mesa site running 60 workers during framing and 12 during fit out needs provision sized for 60 while that phase lasts.
Short events are delivered clean and collected afterwards, with no mid event service unless you ask. Anything running past about eight hours is worth scheduling a service visit into.
What do La Mesa organisers need to know?
Lighting is worth planning for any La Mesa event running past dusk. Units without internal lighting become unusable after dark unless the surrounding area is lit.
The access rule is simple and worth designing around: within about 25 feet of where the truck can stop. Courtyards and rear lots on La Mesa sites frequently fail it.
For a La Mesa event longer than about eight hours, ask about a mid event service. Short events are delivered clean and collected after, with nothing in between by default.
Signage helps at the margins on a large La Mesa site, but it does not fix an under count. If the queue is long, people look for alternatives regardless of the signs.

La Mesa porta potty questions
What happens at the end of the rental?
The provider collects the units on the agreed date. For long term job site rentals, just call when the project finishes and they schedule the pickup.
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.
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.
Are urinal only units available?
Yes, and on large male heavy crowds they can cut queues significantly for less than the cost of additional full units. Ask the provider about the mix.
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.
