How many portable toilets do I need for my job site?

The answer depends on your crew size and how long they're there. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the minimum: for 20 workers or fewer you need 1 toilet facility, and from 20 up you add 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers. If you're at 200 workers or more, the ratio becomes 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 50 workers. A construction manager in Kernersville, 12.4 miles east of Winston-Salem, told us he uses our standard porta potty rental as a baseline, then adds a deluxe flushable unit near the foreman's trailer. Read our guide on how many porta potties you need for a detailed walkthrough that fits your crew.

What's the typical cost for weekly and monthly rentals?

Weekly standard unit rentals run between $130 and $500, and monthly rates land between $125 and $325. Delivery fees vary: expect $50 to $150 per week or $120 to $420 per month. Porta potty rental cost pages show the range in more detail, and a quick call gets you a quote for your exact dates and location in Winston-Salem. Event rentals operate on a different model and run $200 to $800 per event. Storage containers in Winston-Salem rent month-to-month for $100 to $250, and roll-off dumpsters cost $91 to $500 monthly depending on size.

How often do you service and clean the units?

One visit per week is the standard interval under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 for up to 10 users over a 40-hour work week. If your crew is larger or the unit gets heavy use, we'll schedule twice-weekly service or discuss a restroom trailer that gives you more capacity. Cleaning happens at every service visit. Our portable toilet rental page walks through what a typical service includes, and the how often are porta potties cleaned guide answers questions about turnaround and hygiene protocols specific to Winston-Salem weather and site conditions.

Do I need an ADA accessible unit on my project?

If you have any disabled workers or visitors, yes. ADA accessible porta potties must meet clear door width (32 inches minimum under ADA Standards section 404.2.3), turning space (60-inch diameter under ADA Standards section 304.3.1), and where you cluster units, at least 5 percent of them must be accessible under ADA Standards section 213.2. An ADA unit costs $120 to $400 weekly depending on your location in Winston-Salem. The ADA restroom requirements page covers all the specs, and we can walk you through placement on your site map.

What do you do if I need a unit fast?

Call us for an emergency porta potty rental. Same-day delivery is sometimes possible depending on our schedule that day. We also rent handwashing stations when OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) applies, that's for crews applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. Those require soap and a hand-drying device under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), not just sanitizer. We serve Winston-Salem and nearby towns like Lewisville (11.9 miles west), High Point (20.1 miles southeast), and Bethania (8.0 miles northwest).
