Construction Portable Toilet Rental Services

Construction Portable Toilet Rental on Houston Job Sites

Construction portable toilet rental is the service that puts a chemical toilet with a sealed holding tank on a Houston job site that has no sanitary sewer. Houston Porta Potty Rentals rents it next to the standard portable toilet and other units, with same-day delivery across Greater Houston.

Contractors book the service on daily, weekend, weekly, monthly and long-term terms. That range lets the rental match the length of the build, from a one-week job to a long-term project.

Crew Size and Table D-1 Toilet Counts

Crew size sets the toilet count under Table D-1 of OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51*: 1 toilet for 20 or fewer employees, and 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers for 20 or more. From 200 workers up, it is 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 50 workers.

A crew of 80 workers, for example, needs at least 2 toilet seats and 2 urinals. A standard unit has a toilet seat and a urinal, so 2 standard units give that crew 2 of each, and we match the number of units to your headcount.

Temporary field conditions do not remove the need for a toilet, so even a short job with a small crew needs at least one toilet facility. A single unit covers that floor for a crew of 20 or fewer workers.

"Under temporary field conditions, provisions shall be made to assure not less than one toilet facility is available." (29 CFR 1926.51(c)(2)*)

Mobile crews get an exception from the toilet rule, but only when they have transportation readily available to nearby toilet facilities. Paragraph (c)(4) of the rule states that exception in these words.

"The requirements of this paragraph (c) for sanitation facilities shall not apply to mobile crews having transportation readily available to nearby toilet facilities." (29 CFR 1926.51(c)(4)*)

28-Day Rental Cost

Construction portable toilet rental in Houston costs $160 to $220 per unit for a 28-day rental with weekly service. The quote depends on the rental length, the number of units and the delivery address. For a one-day or per-day price, call us at (281) 466-4508 and we will quote it.

Weekly Service and Pump-Out

Weekly service includes a pump-out of the holding tank, a cleaning and a restock for each unit, and it comes with the 28-day price. Every visit by our service crew follows the same three steps on the job site, in this order.

1. Pump-out: we pump the holding tank.
2. Cleaning: we clean and sanitize the unit.
3. Restocking: we restock supplies.

A regular pump-out keeps the holding tank from filling up between visits, so the unit stays usable for a busy crew. The service runs for as long as the rental lasts, from a weekly term to a long-term build.

Job Site Placement and Same-Day Delivery

Job site placement and same-day delivery start with one call: give us the delivery address, and we bring each unit to a spot near the work. Same-day delivery covers job sites across Greater Houston, so a crew can have a toilet on the day it starts work.

1. Call (281) 466-4508 with the delivery address, the crew size and the rental length.
2. Choose a spot on the job site that our service crew can reach for each weekly visit.
3. Get same-day delivery, with our crew placing each unit where you asked.
4. Keep the unit for the rental term, and we pick it up when the job ends.

A spot close to the work keeps trips short for the crew, and a clear path to the door keeps the unit easy to use. The unit then stays in place until the rental ends.

High-Rise Portable Toilet, Towable Units and Hand-Wash Stations

A high-rise portable toilet goes up by crane to the upper floors, a towable portable toilet moves on a trailer across a large job site, and a hand-wash station gives the crew a place to wash up. Each one covers a need that a standard ground-level unit does not.

We rent the high-rise portable toilet for tall builds, while ground crews keep using the units at street level. Its crane hook or steel lifting frame lets a crane lift it to each upper floor.

A towable portable toilet sits on a single-axle trailer with a hitch, so a truck can tow it from one part of a large job site to the next. That lets the toilet follow a crew as the work moves.

A hand-wash station gives the crew a place to wash up next to the toilets, and we offer hand-wash stations for job sites. A portable toilet with sink puts the sink inside the unit itself instead.

OSHA asks the employer for adequate washing facilities where workers apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. Crews on those jobs can pair a hand-wash station with each toilet.

"The employer shall provide adequate washing facilities for employees engaged in the application of paints, coating, herbicides, or insecticides, or in other operations where contaminants may be harmful to the employees." (29 CFR 1926.51(f)(1)*)
