OSHA's construction sanitation rule, 29 CFR 1926.51(c)(1), sets the floor: 1 toilet for 20 or fewer workers; 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 up to 200; and 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 50 workers above 200. OSHA also expects a worker to reach a toilet within about a 10-minute walk. On a Mountain View jobsite we size to the OSHA table for the largest crew on site, add a hand-wash station at the break area, and keep units inside the fenced site or on the driveway, because the city does not allow items in streets narrower than 36 feet from curb to curb. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

Our standard Mountain View monthly rental includes 4 service visits over the 28-day period, roughly weekly. Each visit pumps the tank, sanitizes the interior, and restocks paper, soap, and hand sanitizer. With average highs in the upper 70s even in late summer, heat rarely forces extra visits here; crowds and crew size do. For multi-day events at Shoreline or downtown we service between event days, and on Castro Street we time visits around the pedestrian mall's outdoor dining. In winter we confirm the truck can reach units on flat ground after heavy rain. Service is built into the rate, so it never depends on anyone remembering to call.

For an event open to the public, yes. The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design require that at least 5 percent of the single-user portable toilets in each cluster be accessible, with a minimum of one, and each accessible unit is marked with the International Symbol of Accessibility. (Units provided only for construction workers are exempt.) In practice a small Mountain View event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Mountain View run $449 for a weekend. The accessible unit has ground-level entry, interior grab bars, and a full wheelchair turning radius, and it needs firm, level ground with a clear approach path. Tell us your guest count and we will build the right ratio in.

On private property with clear truck access, a driveway, a fenced jobsite, or a private lot, you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Mountain View. If the unit goes in a public street, Mountain View Public Works issues a temporary encroachment permit, and its location rules apply: not in front of a neighbor's property, at least 6 feet from any driveway, not in a no-parking zone, fire lane, or loading zone, at least 15 feet from crosswalks and hydrants, and not on streets narrower than 36 feet from curb to curb. Public Works review takes about three weeks. Events on or next to city streets are special events, permitted only to nonprofit and civic groups, due 90 days ahead, and the city may require portable toilets as a condition. Tell us the exact address and dates and we confirm what your placement needs and coordinate with the city before delivery.

A standard unit is the jobsite and everyday-event workhorse: enclosed, stocked, and cost-effective at $345/weekend. A deluxe flushing unit adds a foot-pump flushing bowl and an in-unit sink for guest-facing events like weddings and corporate functions at $449/weekend. A luxury restroom trailer is a climate-controlled, multi-stall unit with porcelain toilets, running-water sinks, and mirrors, indistinguishable from a fine-venue bathroom, from $1610/weekend. Pick by how guest-facing the site is and how long the rental runs.

Yes. We deliver and service portable toilets throughout Mountain View and the surrounding Mountain View metro area, with same-day and next-day drop-offs available in most of the area when you book early.

Yes. A freestanding hand-wash station pairs with any toilet unit and needs no power or water hookup: it has a foot-pump faucet, soap, and paper towels, stocked at delivery and every service visit. One station serves roughly four toilet units, the ratio most health departments expect. For food and drink events in Mountain View, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

It can. Mountain View treats any event on or next to a city street, sidewalk, or alley, or on private property if it is likely to block traffic, as a special event. Those permits are issued only to nonprofit and civic organizations that serve Mountain View residents, the application is due 90 days before the event, and the city states that depending on the event you may be required to have and pay for portable toilets, trash removal, recycling, and emergency services. The Recreation Division reviews the application and tells you what is required. Send us the city's requirements, expected attendance, hours, and site map, and we size the units, add hand-wash stations near food, include an accessible unit on a level path, and place them where they will not block outdoor dining on Castro Street or emergency access.
