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.
The two rules are different in kind. The job site figure is a legal minimum you have to meet. The event figure is a planning convention that describes average demand, and average demand is not what forms a queue.
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 Memphis rental.
Where should units go on a Memphis site?
Keep Memphis units within about 25 feet of where the service truck can park. That single constraint decides most placement questions on tight urban sites.
Footprint is rarely the constraint; truck access is. A unit fits almost anywhere, but a unit the service truck cannot reach generates a charge on every scheduled visit.
Units arrive cleaned, restocked and deodorised from the yard, so the first use is on a fresh unit. That matters more at a Memphis event than on a job site.
A quote for a Memphis job site normally bundles delivery, the units, weekly servicing and collection into one monthly figure. Extra visits and long carries sit outside it.

Memphis porta potty questions
What is the minimum rental period?
Events are priced per day. Job site rentals are normally monthly with weekly servicing included, and one month is the usual minimum.
Do you provide units for Shelby 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.
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 I need a permit for a porta potty in Memphis?
Not on private property in almost all cases. Public events and anything placed on a street or sidewalk may need a city permit that covers restroom provision.
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.
