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.
For a Durango event the arithmetic is: guests divided by 50, rounded up, plus one unit per 100 guests for every two hours beyond four, plus about 15 percent if alcohol is served.
Weekly is the default because it matches the tank. Sixty to seventy gallons is around 100 uses, and ten people over a working week is about 100 uses, which is where both rules of thumb come from.
Where should units go on a Durango site?
Wind matters more than people expect. On exposed Durango sites, units should be staked or strapped, particularly if they sit on a hard surface where they cannot be anchored into ground.
A standard unit occupies roughly 4 by 4 feet with the door opening outward, so allow about 5 by 5 feet of clear space. The service truck needs to get within about 25 feet of each unit.
Review the order when the crew size changes. A Durango site carrying six units through a fit out with a crew of twelve is paying for capacity nobody is using.
Trailers need level ground, a route for a tow vehicle and a power supply. Where a Durango venue cannot provide all three, deluxe flushable units are the realistic answer.

Durango porta potty questions
Do units need lighting at a Durango event?
For anything running past dusk, yes. Most units have a daylight roof panel only and become unusable after dark without surrounding light.
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.
Can I get units delivered on a weekend in Durango?
Often yes, though weekend delivery and collection sometimes carry a surcharge. Book early for Saturday events, that is the busiest day of the week.
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 provide units for La Plata 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.
