Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can a porta potty be delivered?

South End Sanitation is dedicated to providing a perfect customer experience, and that’s why we’re proud to offer same-day delivery throughout our service area. If you know you’ll need a portable restroom, though, it may be better to book your rental earlier.

Can portable restrooms be rented for just one day?

We can arrange for delivery the day before or the morning of a single-day rental. In some cases, if it is acceptable to you, you will have use of the porta potty for a day or two after your single day rental, but you will still only be charged for the one day.

How frequently will the portable bathroom be serviced?

In most cases, each unit is serviced once per week. Service includes restocking, cleaning, and sanitization. Some circumstances can require more frequent service. If this is the case, we will adjust increase the service level to meet your needs demands. Basic weekly service is included in your rental fee.

Can a porta potty be placed anywhere on my site?

We will do our best to place your porta potty where you would like, but we will only place units where they will be stable, secure, and able to be serviced properly. Not placing units where they will be serviceable causes many potential problems, so ultimately we will only place units in locations that will keep your site safe and clean.

How many portable toilets will I need for my project?

We will assist you in determining how many units are needed for your project. The number of units required will be determined by the size of your site, how many people require service, and any regulations you need to adhere to.

For large events, we have a great deal of experience in estimating the appropriate number of units for your expected attendance. For construction sites, we will help you meet the guidelines set by OSHA and any local regulations.

Will the porta potties be wheelchair accessible?

If you require a wheelchair-accessible porta potty, we have appropriate units available. Simply let us know your needs when making your reservation, and we will provide a wheelchair-accessible porta potty that is sanitary, safe, and ready to use.

How do you control odors in the porta potty?

Our porta potty units utilize detergent water, which works as both a sanitizer and deodorizer. Detergent water helps control odor between service appointments, and as part of our regular service, all odor is eliminated by waste removal and detailed cleaning. You can be sure that your workers or guests will be provided with access to a clean and comfortable facility.
