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 Cape Girardeau 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.
More units on weekly service often costs less than fewer units on twice weekly, and it removes the queue at the peak as well. It is worth pricing both ways for a long Cape Girardeau rental.
Where should units go on a Cape Girardeau site?
Wind matters more than people expect. On exposed Cape Girardeau sites, units should be staked or strapped, particularly if they sit on a hard surface where they cannot be anchored into ground.
On a long Cape Girardeau rental, choose a position that will still work in month three. Sites change, and repositioning a unit carries a fee.
Wind tips unsecured units, particularly when they are nearly empty. On exposed Cape Girardeau sites they should be staked, or strapped where the ground cannot take a stake.
Trailers need level ground, a route for a tow vehicle and a power supply. Where a Cape Girardeau venue cannot provide all three, deluxe flushable units are the realistic answer.

Cape Girardeau porta potty questions
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.
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 often will the unit be serviced in Cape Girardeau?
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.
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 units need lighting at a Cape Girardeau event?
For anything running past dusk, yes. Most units have a daylight roof panel only and become unusable after dark without surrounding light.
