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 Ithaca site running 60 workers during framing and 12 during fit out needs provision sized for 60 while that phase lasts.
Heavy use and heat both shorten the interval. A Ithaca site that is comfortable on weekly service in spring often needs twice weekly through the hottest months.
What should you plan for in Ithaca?
Spread units into two or three smaller banks across a large Ithaca site rather than one row. Walking distance drives usage patterns more than the raw count does.
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.
For a Ithaca event longer than about eight hours, ask about a mid event service. Short events are delivered clean and collected after, with nothing in between by default.
Units arrive from the yard cleaned, restocked and deodorised, so the first use is on a fresh unit. On a Ithaca event that is the detail guests actually notice.

Ithaca porta potty questions
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.
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.
Do units need lighting at a Ithaca event?
For anything running past dusk, yes. Most units have a daylight roof panel only and become unusable after dark without surrounding light.
How many hand wash stations should I order?
One per three to four units is the normal ratio. Go to one per two units for food service, weddings or anywhere children are present.
Do you provide units for Tompkins 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.
