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.
Treat the OSHA number as the point below which you are non compliant, not the number to order. Comfortable and compliant are different thresholds, and crews notice the difference by midweek.
Multi day events in Novato are serviced nightly between sessions. That is standard practice on festivals rather than an upgrade you have to negotiate.
Where should units go on a Novato site?
If a Novato site has a locked gate or restricted hours, give the provider the access details at booking. A missed service visit still counts as a service visit on most contracts.
Footprint is rarely the constraint; truck access is. A unit fits almost anywhere, but a unit the service truck cannot reach generates a charge on every scheduled visit.
Hand washing is a separate provision from the restroom itself. Where Novato crews handle contaminants, a station with soap and running water is what the rule requires.
Where food is served at a Novato event, move to one hand wash station per two units rather than one per three or four.

Novato porta potty questions
What is the minimum rental period?
Events are priced per day. Job site rentals are normally monthly with weekly servicing included, and one month is the usual minimum.
Do you provide units for Marin County public events?
Yes. Public events usually need at least one ADA accessible unit, and the local authority may specify counts and placement as part of the event permit.
Do units need lighting at a Novato event?
For anything running past dusk, yes. Most units have a daylight roof panel only and become unusable after dark without surrounding light.
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.
Can I rent a unit for a whole year in Novato?
Yes. Long term rentals are standard on construction projects and are usually billed monthly with weekly service included.
