How fast can you deliver in Detroit?
Most orders land within 24 hours. Emergency jobs move faster, and our emergency porta potty rental exists for storm cleanup, plumbing failures and last-minute crews. A roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so clear the drive before we arrive. Porta potty units set almost anywhere flat.
Placement matters. ADA Standards section 302.1 says the ground surface has to be stable, firm and slip resistant, so we look for level footing. Our porta potty placement guide walks through access and spacing. If the unit is going in the public right of way, that placement needs confirming with the City of Detroit, and we cannot name a rule for it here. The porta potty permit requirements page covers what we know. When you order, our rental checklist keeps the drop clean.
What are the four unit types?
Four choices cover most jobs. The standard unit is the workhorse: a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and roughly 92 inches tall. It suits construction and general labor. Some people call it a porta john rental or a portable restroom rental; same thing.
The deluxe flushable porta potty adds a flush and a sink, good for weddings and offices. The ADA accessible porta potty gives wheelchair users room, meeting the 60 inch turning circle in ADA Standards section 304.3.1. For upscale events, a luxury restroom trailer or shower trailer rental steps up again. Trailers come in 2 stall, 4 stall and 8 stall sizes. Not sure? Our portable toilet rental overview compares them side by side.
How does service work?
We drop the unit, we service it, we pick it up. That is the whole loop. The industry baseline under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 is one service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, and we schedule to that unless your traffic runs higher. Our how often are porta potties cleaned page explains the pump-and-restock routine.
Each visit we pump the tank, refill supplies and deodorize. Worried about odor? Read do porta potties smell and how do porta potties work. Cold months change things, so porta potty in winter covers freeze protection in Detroit. When you pair a unit with a handwashing station rental, 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a dryer, not just sanitizer. A portable sink rental covers that. See handwashing station requirements for the details.
How many porta potties do I need for a job site?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets it. For 20 workers or fewer you need one toilet facility. From 20 up, it moves to one seat and one urinal per 40 workers, and at 200 or more, one seat and one urinal per 50. Our how many porta potties do I need calculator does the count for you.
Water counts too. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at every workplace. Where crews apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities on top of the toilet. The full breakdown lives on OSHA portable toilet requirements and ADA restroom requirements. For a full build, bundle units with a construction dumpster rental through our construction site services.
What else can Detroit Porta Pros bring?
More than toilets. We run roll-off dumpster rental in 10 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard and 40 yard sizes. Check dumpster sizes and dimensions, dumpster weight limits and what cannot go in a dumpster before you fill one. Detroit dumpster placement in the street may need a permit; see dumpster permit requirements and dumpster rental cost.
We also do septic pumping service and septic tank cleaning. A residential tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank and household size; read how often to pump a septic tank and watch for septic tank warning signs. A grease interceptor gets pumped at 25 percent of liquid depth, covered on grease trap pumping. Need power or light? See light tower rental and temporary power pole. We add temporary fence rental, storage container rental and a mobile office trailer rental too.
Do you handle events and other cities?
Yes, both. Detroit Porta Pros stocks restrooms for weddings, festivals and races. Book an event restroom rental, a wedding restroom rental, a festival restroom rental or a concert restroom rental. Runners get marathon and race restrooms, and golf events get golf tournament restrooms.
We serve the suburbs on the same schedule. Livonia is 16.0 miles west and Taylor is 18.3 miles southwest. We also cover Hamtramck, Redford, Troy and Westland 20.2 miles west. Farms and film sets are welcome too; see farm and agricultural restrooms, film set restroom rental and disaster relief sanitation. Renovating a house in Detroit? Grab a home renovation porta potty.
