How much does porta potty rental cost in Davis?
Price depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A standard portable toilet runs about $150 for a day and around $200 for a week in Davis. Deluxe flushable units cost more because they carry a sink and a foot pump. Restroom trailers sit in a different tier entirely.

What types of porta potties can I rent?
Start with the workhorse. A standard porta potty has a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank and sits about 44 by 48 inches on the ground, standing near 92 inches tall. That fits most job sites and casual events. Want something nicer for guests. The deluxe flushable unit adds a flush and an interior sink. For weddings and upscale events, a luxury restroom trailer gives you climate control and real fixtures. We also carry the ADA accessible unit, which meets the 60 inch turning circle in ADA Standards section 304.3.1 and the 32 inch clear door in section 404.2.3. Same product goes by a few names. Some folks search porta john, others say portable toilet or portable restroom. We rent all of them. If a pipe bursts or a septic fails, our emergency porta potty service moves fast.
How many porta potties do I need?
For a construction crew, OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the ratio: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then a toilet seat and a urinal per 40 workers as the count climbs. For events, the math runs on headcount and hours, not workers. A four-hour party of 100 needs fewer units than an all-day festival with the same crowd. Alcohol and long service windows push the number up. Our how many porta potties do I need guide walks the full formula, and the OSHA portable toilet requirements page covers the job-site rules line by line. If you are running a festival, a marathon or a county fair, we will spec it with you. Under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, one service visit per week covers up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, so heavy use means more frequent cleaning. See how often porta potties are cleaned for that schedule.
Do I need a permit to place a porta potty in Davis?
On your own property, no. Set it on a firm, level pad and you are good. ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for a stable, firm and slip-resistant surface, so skip the soft grass and loose gravel if you want a steady unit. Placement in the public right of way, like a sidewalk or a street, is different and permit rules for Davis are NOT VERIFIED here. Confirm that with the City of Davis before you block any public space. We name no ordinance number because we will not guess one. Our permit requirements page and the placement guide explain what we know and where to check. For access, keep about 60 feet of straight clearance if a truck has to back in. Read the full rental checklist before delivery day so nothing stalls the drop.
What else can Davis Porta Pros deliver with the toilets?
Most orders need more than a toilet. Pair a unit with a handwashing station, which matters because 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it. If your crew applies paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities on top of the toilets. We also drop roll-off dumpsters for debris, storage containers for tools and temporary fencing to secure the site. Septic work too. We run septic pumping and grease trap pumping; a grease interceptor gets pumped when solids hit 25 percent of the liquid depth. A residential tank usually needs pumping every 3 to 5 years. We serve the University of California-Davis campus 2.9 miles southwest, El Macero 4.5 miles east, and Dixon 10.5 miles southwest. See the full service areas list or read about us.
