What is a deluxe flushable porta potty?
A deluxe flushable unit is a single occupancy portable restroom with a foot operated flush, an internal fresh water sink with soap and paper towels, and a mirror. It carries separate fresh and waste tanks and still needs no mains connection. It is the usual choice for weddings and guest facing events. Call 1-833-520-0680.
Who is this unit for?
Weddings and receptions at outdoor venues- Corporate and client facing events
- Multi day festivals where comfort matters
- Golf tournaments and country events
- Long duration job sites with office staff on site
What are the specifications?
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Footprint | About 4 ft x 4.5 ft |
| Height | About 7.5 ft |
| Flush type | Foot operated recirculating flush |
| Fresh water tank | Typically 15 to 25 gallons |
| Waste tank | Typically 60 to 70 gallons |
| Water or power needed | None, fully self contained |
What does the flush actually do?
It recirculates treated water from a separate chamber rather than flushing to a sewer. A foot pedal pumps a small volume into the bowl, which clears it between uses and keeps the odor down considerably compared with an open holding tank.
The practical effect is that the unit stays pleasant through far more uses than a standard one, which is why it suits events where the same guests return several times.
Why does the fresh water tank matter?
Because it, not the waste tank, is usually what runs out first. A 15 to 25 gallon fresh tank supports roughly 60 to 100 flushes and hand washes combined.
For a four hour event with modest numbers that is ample. For an eight hour event with a few hundred guests, order more units than the headcount alone suggests, or arrange a mid event service.
Where does this sit against a restroom trailer?
Between the standard unit and the trailer, in both comfort and cost. The flushable unit gives you running water and a mirror without needing level ground, a tow vehicle, a power supply or a water hookup.
A trailer is a better guest experience, with climate control and multiple stalls, but it carries site requirements that many outdoor venues cannot meet. If the venue is a field, the flushable unit is often the realistic ceiling.
How many should you order for an event?
Use the same ratio as standard units, one per 50 guests for up to four hours, then add for duration and alcohol. Do not reduce the count because the units are nicer; capacity is set by how many people can use a single door per hour, and that does not change.
Add at least one ADA accessible unit for any event the public can attend, and one hand wash station per three or four units if the event involves food.
How does booking work?
Call with the headcount and dates
We connect you with a local provider. Tell them whether workers or guests will be using the units.
Confirm the count and the schedule
The provider sets the unit mix, the servicing frequency and the placement, then quotes the whole rental.
Delivery, servicing and collection
Units arrive clean. The service truck keeps to the agreed schedule, and collection is on the end date.
What does it cost?
| Market type | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Event, major metro | $200 to $375 |
| Event, mid size city | $180 to $330 |
| Event, smaller market | $160 to $300 |
What is inside the unit?
Included
- Foot operated flushing toilet
- Fresh water sink with a foot pump
- Soap dispenser and paper towels
- Mirror and interior shelf
- Coat hook and purse shelf
- Translucent roof panel for daylight
Servicing schedule
Per event delivered clean and fully stocked, collected after the event.- Weekly on longer rentals: both tanks serviced, interior cleaned, consumables restocked.
- Mid event available on request for events running more than about 8 hours.
Fittings vary slightly between manufacturers. Your provider confirms what the specific unit includes and how often it will be serviced.
Where should the unit go?
Guests judge these units partly on approach. Put them on level ground with a firm path, away from food service but still clearly visible, and make sure the area is lit if the event runs past dusk.
A standard unit occupies roughly 4 by 4 feet with the door opening outward, so allow about 5 by 5 feet of clear space. The service truck needs to get within about 25 feet of the unit, which is the constraint that decides most placement questions.

Deluxe Flushable Porta Potty questions
How is this different from a standard porta potty?
It adds a foot operated flush, an internal fresh water sink with soap and towels, and a mirror. A standard unit has a holding tank and hand sanitiser only.
Does it need a water connection?
No. The unit carries its own fresh water tank, typically 15 to 25 gallons, and a separate waste tank. It is fully self contained.
Is it worth the extra cost over a standard unit?
For guest facing events, usually yes. For a working crew it is not, the standard unit does the same job for less.
How many uses before the fresh water runs out?
The fresh water tank is the limiting factor, typically around 60 to 100 flushes. For a long event, ask about a mid event service or order an extra unit.
Can I get these for a wedding?
Yes, and they are the common choice where a restroom trailer is out of budget or the venue cannot accommodate one.
Do they come with lighting?
Most have a translucent roof panel for daylight only. If the event runs past dusk, ask about an interior light or plan the surrounding lighting.
