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.
Review the schedule when the site changes. A Rapid City project that needed twice weekly during framing rarely needs it through a fit out with a third of the crew.
What should you plan for in Rapid City?
Set units on firm, level ground in Rapid City. Soft or sloping ground lets a unit settle or tip, and a gravel pad or a sheet of plywood under the base solves it cheaply.
Plan around the service vehicle first, then the unit. Work out where the truck can park at your Rapid City address and place units within about 25 feet of it.
If the public can attend your Rapid City event, the accessible route matters as much as the accessible unit. A compliant unit at the end of a gravel path is not usable.
Event pricing in Rapid City 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.

Rapid City porta potty questions
Can I rent a unit for a whole year in Rapid City?
Yes. Long term rentals are standard on construction projects and are usually billed monthly with weekly service included.
What happens at the end of the rental?
The provider collects the units on the agreed date. For long term job site rentals, just call when the project finishes and they schedule the pickup.
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.
What do I do if a unit is damaged or tipped over?
Call the provider straight away. Most will right and reservice a tipped unit quickly, and damage caused by vandalism is usually covered by the rental terms.
Can units be placed on a sloping Rapid City site?
They need to sit level, so a sloping site usually means a levelled pad of gravel or plywood. Tell the provider when you book so they bring what they need.
