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 Pittsburgh 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 Pittsburgh site that is comfortable on weekly service in spring often needs twice weekly through the hottest months.
What do Pittsburgh organisers need to know?
On public facing Pittsburgh events, put at least one ADA accessible unit on a level, firm route from the main area. Accessible does not help if the path to it is gravel or grass.
Keep about 5 by 5 feet clear per unit and leave the approach for the service truck open. Both matter for the whole rental rather than just the delivery day.
For a Pittsburgh 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 Pittsburgh event that is the detail guests actually notice.

Pittsburgh porta potty questions
What is the difference between standard and flushable units?
A flushable deluxe unit has a foot operated flush, a fresh water sink and a mirror inside. Standard units have a holding tank, a seat and a hand sanitiser dispenser.
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.
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.
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.
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.
