How do I rent a porta potty in Seattle, WA?
Dial 1-833-520-0680 and say whether it is a Seattle job site or an event, plus the number of people and the dates. A local King provider then confirms how many units you need, how often they will be serviced and the full price.
Portable restrooms are usually the simplest part of a Seattle project to get right, provided the count and the service frequency are set correctly at the start. A King provider will set both on the call.

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.
Where the public attends, add at least one ADA accessible unit regardless of the total. The 2010 ADA Standards set the dimensions, and the cost difference on a single unit is small.
Review the schedule when the site changes. A Seattle project that needed twice weekly during framing rarely needs it through a fit out with a third of the crew.
What do Seattle organisers need to know?
Position units downwind and away from food service at Seattle events, but keep them visible. Hidden units create queues at the few people can find.
The access rule is simple and worth designing around: within about 25 feet of where the truck can stop. Courtyards and rear lots on Seattle sites frequently fail it.
For a Seattle 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.
On a long Seattle rental, a position the truck can reach in month six is worth more than a position that looks tidy in week one.

Seattle porta potty questions
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.
How far in advance should I book?
Two to four weeks is comfortable for most events. Peak wedding and festival weekends in King go much earlier, so book as soon as the date is fixed.
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.
How much is a porta potty for one day in Seattle?
A standard unit for a one day event typically runs $150 to $275 delivered and collected. Flushable deluxe units cost more, and trailers are priced per day in the hundreds to low thousands.
What is the difference between standard and flushable units?
A flushable deluxe unit has a foot operated flush, a fresh water sink and a mirror inside. Standard units have a holding tank, a seat and a hand sanitiser dispenser.
