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 regulation only covers work. For anything guest facing you are working from planning ratios, which is why two events with the same headcount can need different provision depending on duration and whether there is a bar.
The symptom of an under serviced unit is predictable: fine on Monday, avoided by Thursday. If crews are leaving a Austin site to find a restroom, the schedule is wrong rather than the count.
How should units be placed in Austin?
For Austin job sites, put the unit near the site entrance rather than deep in the work area. It keeps the service truck off the active site and shortens the walk for the crew.
On a long Austin rental, choose a position that will still work in month three. Sites change, and repositioning a unit carries a fee.
Review the order when the crew size changes. A Austin site carrying six units through a fit out with a crew of twelve is paying for capacity nobody is using.
Freezing weather means antifreeze in the tank, which the provider handles. The part that falls to you is a cleared path so the service truck can still reach the unit.

| Standard porta potty, 1 day event | Parties, races, small gatherings | $150 to $275 |

The number of units moves your Austin total more than the unit type does. Getting the count right from the headcount is the main lever on cost.

Austin porta potty questions
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 often will the unit be serviced in Austin?
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.
How much notice do you need for a Austin job site?
A few days is usually enough for a standard unit. Trailers, ADA units and large multi unit orders need longer, particularly in peak season.
How much space does a unit need?
A standard unit occupies roughly 4 by 4 feet with the door opening outward, so allow about 5 by 5 feet of clear area plus access for the service truck.
What is included in a service visit?
The tank is pumped, the unit is washed down, the paper is restocked and deodoriser is added. Any damage is noted and reported.
