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.
Servicing is the other difference. A Houston job site on weekly service gets the tank pumped, the unit cleaned and the paper restocked once a week, which suits a crew of up to about 10 per unit.
Where should units go on a Houston site?
On Houston sites with vehicle traffic, place units where a reversing truck cannot clip them and where workers do not have to cross a haul route to reach them.
On a long Houston 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 Houston site carrying six units through a fit out with a crew of twelve is paying for capacity nobody is using.
A quote for a Houston job site normally bundles delivery, the units, weekly servicing and collection into one monthly figure. Extra visits and long carries sit outside it.

Distance from the provider yard affects Houston pricing on both delivery and every service visit, which is why local providers usually price better on long rentals.

Houston porta potty questions
How often will the unit be serviced in Houston?
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.
Do you supply the units yourselves?
No. We are a free referral service. Your call connects you with an independent local provider who owns the units and handles delivery and servicing.
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.
Can I get units delivered on a weekend in Houston?
Often yes, though weekend delivery and collection sometimes carry a surcharge. Book early for Saturday events, that is the busiest day of the week.
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.
