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.
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 Pekin organisers need to know?
Position units downwind and away from food service at Pekin events, but keep them visible. Hidden units create queues at the few people can find.
Doors open outward, so a unit tucked tight against a wall or a fence loses usable space. Allow the extra foot and the clear route for the service truck.
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.
Signage helps at the margins on a large Pekin site, but it does not fix an under count. If the queue is long, people look for alternatives regardless of the signs.

Pekin porta potty questions
Do you have ADA accessible units?
Yes. ADA units are wider, have a ground level entry and interior grab bars, and follow the 2010 ADA Standards. Order at least one whenever the public has access.
How far in advance should I book?
Two to four weeks is comfortable for most events. Peak wedding and festival weekends in Tazewell go much earlier, so book as soon as the date is fixed.
What happens in freezing weather?
Providers add antifreeze to the holding tank and may adjust the servicing schedule. Keep a cleared path so the service truck can still reach the unit.
What happens if a unit is not serviced on schedule?
Call the provider. If the truck could not reach the unit, the visit normally still counts as billed, so keeping the approach clear on service days matters.
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.
