What Kind of Portable Restroom Do I Need?
Depends on the job. A construction crew needs a standard porta potty rental rated for daily traffic, roughly 44 by 48 inches on the ground and about 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank. A backyard wedding or a corporate picnic usually wants something nicer, which is why we carry the deluxe flushable porta potty with a flush handle and a real sink. For anyone hosting a portable restroom rental for party guests who expect more than a plastic box, that upgrade matters. If your guest list includes anyone using a wheelchair or walker, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units be accessible, and never fewer than one, so ask about our ADA accessible porta potty options. Bigger events lean toward a restroom trailer rental instead of individual stalls, especially once headcount climbs past what a row of standard units can handle comfortably.
How Many Units Do I Need for My Event?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline for job sites: one toilet for every 20 workers on a crew of 20 or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you pass that mark. Events don't fall under that rule directly, but the ratio is still a decent starting point for planning. A 100-person backyard party in Aurora usually does fine with two to three standard portable restroom rental units for an afternoon. Longer events, or ones serving alcohol, push that number up fast. If you're not sure, our how many porta potties do I need guide walks through headcount, duration and hydration levels. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a baseline of one service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, which is worth knowing if you're renting for a multi-week project rather than a single weekend in Aurora.
Should I Rent a Trailer Instead of Individual Units?
Once you're past roughly 75 to 100 guests, or you want climate control and running water, a trailer usually beats a row of stand-alone units. A 2 stall portable restroom trailer handles smaller weddings and block parties well, while a 4 stall restroom trailer or 8 stall restroom trailer fits festivals and multi-day builds. If someone searches portable restroom trailer rental near me looking for something upscale, that's our luxury restroom trailer line, with finished interiors and vanity lighting instead of a bare stall. We also get calls asking whether we cover a luxury portable restroom trailer rental outside Colorado, and to be clear, we serve Aurora and the towns around it, not portable restroom trailer rental Michigan or portable restroom rental Cape Coral jobs. Delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so tight alleys or packed lots need a site check first. See restroom trailer rental cost for how trailer pricing compares to standard units.
Where Can Portable Restrooms Be Placed on My Property?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the City of Aurora before delivery day, since that rule varies by property and by street. On private property, ADA Standards section 405.2 caps ramp slope at 1:12 if you need a wheelchair-accessible route to the unit, and section 403.5.1 sets a 36 inch minimum clear width for that path. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground surface, drainage and clearance from doors and windows in more detail. Aurora properties within about 4.7 miles of Aetna Estates or out toward the 12 mile mark near Four Square Mile sometimes have longer driveways that change where we can stage the truck, so tell us the address early. For downtown lots or anything near Cherry Creek, roughly 16.2 miles southwest, street parking rules for the delivery truck itself are worth checking too.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| standard | $100 - $350 | $130 - $500 | $125 - $325 |
| deluxe | $85 - $1200 | $150 - $290 | -- |
| ada | $200 - $400 | $240 - $400 | -- |
Trailers run differently, from around $175 a day up into the thousands for multi-day events, and a weekend rate for a standard unit typically lands between $125 and $400. Check porta potty rental cost or monthly porta potty rental for longer jobs, and porta potty rental per day if you're only renting for a single day.
Do portable restrooms need handwashing stations too?
Not always required for a small backyard event, but 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) calls for soap and towels or a hand drying device, and hand sanitizer alone doesn't satisfy it. Job sites should pair units with a handwashing station rental. Check handwashing requirements for details.
Can I rent just one unit for a small party?
Yes. Plenty of Aurora homeowners rent a single standard porta potty rental for a backyard graduation or a driveway renovation project. One unit works fine under 25 guests for a few hours; add a second once you pass that or plan on serving alcohol.
How long does delivery take once I book?
Same week delivery is standard, sometimes next day depending on route and unit availability. Roll-off deliveries and restroom trailers need that 60 foot straight clearance behind the truck, so confirm your driveway or lot layout when you request a quote.
Are portable restrooms cleaned between events?
Every unit gets serviced and restocked before it leaves our yard. For active job sites, see how often are porta potties cleaned for our standard visit schedule, which follows the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline interval.
Do you deliver outside Aurora city limits?
Yes, we cover towns nearby including Parker at about 19.1 miles south and Centennial around 23.3 miles southwest. Check service areas for the full list or call ahead if your address sits near the edge of our normal routes.
