How much does porta potty rental cost in Baton Rouge?
Price depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A basic single unit is the cheapest thing we rent. A deluxe flushable model costs more, and a restroom trailer more again. We break the full math down on the porta potty rental cost page, plus a per-day breakdown and a monthly rental page for longer jobs.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 150 | 200 | 200 |
| ADA | 230 | 185 | n/a |
| Deluxe flushable | 300 | 250 | n/a |
Weekend rates sit apart from those columns. A standard unit runs about 250 dollars for a weekend. Delivery is billed on top; see the request a quote page for a firm figure on your address. Every rental includes routine service under our cleaning schedule.
What porta potty rental companies serve the Baton Rouge area?
We do, and we cover the nearby towns too. Westminster is 4.3 miles southeast, so a Westminster rental is a short run. We also reach Merrydale 5.5 miles north, Inniswold 5.5 miles southeast, and Central 12.2 miles northeast. Baker sits 13.1 miles north for a Baker delivery, and Zachary is 19.1 miles north for Zachary.
A porta potty rental company should tell you the drive and the service interval up front. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. We stick to that. See the whole service areas map, or read about us. For Oak Hills Place 7.2 miles out and Gardere 8.6 miles south, same deal.
Which porta potty should I rent?
Match the unit to the crowd. A standard porta potty covers construction and everyday use. The nicer, fancier option is a luxury restroom trailer, and a deluxe flushable unit splits the difference with a flush and a sink.
A standard unit measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank. For a mixed crowd you want an ADA accessible unit; ADA Standards section 213.2 says at least 5 percent of clustered units, and never fewer than one, must be accessible. That unit needs a 60 inch turning circle under ADA Standards section 304.3.1. Not sure on counts? Use the how many porta potties guide. Names vary, so a porta john, a portable toilet and a portable restroom all point at the same rentals.
Do I need a permit to place a porta potty in Baton Rouge?
On private property, usually not. On the public right of way, a sidewalk or a street, placement rules differ by city and are not verified here, so confirm with the City of Baton Rouge before we set a unit there. We do not guess at ordinance numbers. The permit requirements page covers what we know and what you have to check locally.
Placement matters as much as permits. We need firm, level ground; ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for a stable, firm, slip-resistant surface, which is the same thing a delivery truck wants. Our placement guide walks through access and spacing, and how porta potties work explains the tank and venting. Worried about odor in Baton Rouge heat? Read do porta potties smell. For construction specifically, the OSHA portable toilet requirements page lays out the ratios.
What else can I rent with the toilets?
Plenty, because most jobs need more than one thing. On a build we add a handwashing station; 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it. Where crews apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities, so we bring a portable sink.
We also run roll-off dumpsters, and a roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck. Check dumpster sizes and the 10 yard or 20 yard options. Add temporary fencing, a storage container and septic pumping; a residential tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years. Events lean on our event restroom rental and wedding setups. Got a flood?

How much is a porta potty rental near me?
A standard single unit in Baton Rouge runs about 150 dollars a day or 200 dollars a week, plus delivery. Nicer units cost more. The cost breakdown page shows the full range, and a quote gives you a firm number for your address.
How often do you service the unit?
Once a week is the baseline under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, sized for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Heavy traffic gets more frequent visits. We pump the tank, restock, and clean each stop. Details live on the cleaning schedule page.
Can I rent a fancy or luxury unit for an event?
Yes. A deluxe flushable porta potty adds a flush and a sink, and a luxury restroom trailer gives you climate control and real stalls. A 2 stall trailer suits small weddings; bigger crowds want a 4 stall.
How many units do I need for a construction site?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers above that. Our how many porta potties calculator does the math, and construction site services bundles toilets with washing.
Do you deliver outside Baton Rouge?
Yes. We reach Zachary 19.1 miles north, Central 12.2 miles northeast, and closer towns like Inniswold 5.5 miles southeast. Delivery is billed by distance. The service areas page lists every town, or contact us with your address.
