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 Petersburg site running 60 workers during framing and 12 during fit out needs provision sized for 60 while that phase lasts.
A service visit pumps the tank, washes the interior, restocks the paper and adds fresh deodoriser. Weekly covers roughly 100 uses, which is about 10 workers across a five day week.
What should you plan for in Petersburg?
Position units downwind and away from food service at Petersburg events, but keep them visible. Hidden units create queues at the few people can find.
Allow about 5 by 5 feet per unit once the door swing is counted, and make sure the service vehicle can pull within roughly 25 feet. That access distance decides most placements on a tight Petersburg site.
For a Petersburg 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.
Event pricing in Petersburg 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.

Petersburg porta potty questions
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.
Can I get units delivered on a weekend in Petersburg?
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 on a sloping Petersburg 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.
Can I move a unit once it has been delivered in Petersburg?
The provider can reposition it, usually for a fee. On a long rental it is cheaper to choose a position at the start that will still work later in the project.
Are the units cleaned before delivery?
Yes. Units are cleaned, restocked and deodorised at the yard before they go out, so the first use is on a fresh unit.
