How do I rent a porta potty in Portage, MI?
Call 1-833-520-0680 with the Portage ZIP code, the number of people and how long the units are needed. An independent local provider sets the count, adds hand wash stations and ADA units where required, and confirms the delivered price.
Portable restrooms are usually the simplest part of a Portage project to get right, provided the count and the service frequency are set correctly at the start. A Kalamazoo provider will set both on the call.

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 Portage site running 60 workers during framing and 12 during fit out needs provision sized for 60 while that phase lasts.
Access is what makes servicing fail, not the schedule. The truck needs to get within about 25 feet, and a unit blocked on the service day normally still counts as a billed visit.
What should you plan for in Portage?
Position units downwind and away from food service at Portage events, but keep them visible. Hidden units create queues at the few people can find.
Plan around the service vehicle first, then the unit. Work out where the truck can park at your Portage address and place units within about 25 feet of it.
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.
Event pricing in Portage is per unit per day and includes delivery and collection. Job site pricing is monthly, which is why the cost per day is so much lower.

Portage porta potty questions
How many units do I need for 150 guests?
Start at 3 standard units for a 4 hour event. Add roughly 15 percent if alcohol is served, include at least one ADA unit, and add one hand wash station.
How often will the unit be serviced in Portage?
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.
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.
Are urinal only units available in Portage?
Yes, and on large male heavy crowds they cut queues significantly for less than the cost of additional full units. Ask the provider about the mix.
