What five things set the price of a porta potty rental?
Five things set the price of a porta potty rental: how far the site is from our Fontana yard, which unit you rent, your dates and rental length, how often it is serviced, and how many units go on the same trip. Holiday weekends and same-day orders can also add a rush fee.
- Location. Delivery and pickup are priced by trip distance. A Fontana address costs less to reach than Big Bear Lake.
- Unit type. Flushing, ADA and trailer units cost more than standard units.
- Dates. Events are one flat period. Jobsites bill every 28 days.
- Servicing. Weekly service is included on monthly rentals. Extra visits are added per visit.
- Quantity. Two units on one delivery share one trip charge.

Call(601) 236-1718What does an itemized quote include?
An itemized porta potty quote lists the unit and its rental period, the delivery and pickup charge, the service schedule, any rush or holiday fee, any add-ons such as a handwashing station or water tank, and sales tax. The total on the quote is the total you pay before delivery.
Comparing quotes? Check whether the other company's price includes delivery, pickup, setup and servicing. A low base rate with separate delivery, fuel and environmental fees can end up higher. Ask every company for the out-the-door total.
Is a monthly porta potty billed by calendar month?
No. A monthly porta potty is billed every 28 days, so a year has 13 billing cycles, not 12. Each cycle includes the unit and weekly cleaning. Delivery is charged once on the first invoice. A 3-day job still bills one full 28-day cycle, because the trip and service cost the same.
How can you lower your porta potty rental cost?
You can lower your porta potty rental cost by booking early to avoid a rush fee, putting all units on one delivery, choosing a standard unit plus a handwashing station instead of a deluxe unit, sizing to your real guest or crew count, and keeping the unit reachable so no extra trip is needed.
Questions renters ask
Is there a deposit to rent a porta potty?
No separate deposit is taken. Event rentals are paid in full when you book. Monthly rentals are charged each 28-day cycle.
Is tax included in the price?
Your quote lists sales tax as its own line, so you see the out-the-door total before paying.
Why does a weekend party cost the same as one day?
The cost is in the delivery, setup, cleaning and pickup trips, not the hours the unit stands. A unit dropped Friday and picked up Monday costs the same as one used for 4 hours.
Is there a fee if I cancel?
Cancel at least 48 hours before delivery for a full refund. See the rental terms for details.
