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 busy Pasadena jobsite, including a fire rebuild with several trades on site at once, we recommend sizing above the bare OSHA minimum, since crews use the unit more through the foothill summer heat, and adding a hand-wash station at the break area. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

Our standard Pasadena 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. Pasadena summers are hot, with August highs averaging above 91 degrees and about nine days a year at or above 100, so weekly is the floor, not the ceiling. On a busy rebuild, a large crew, or a food event, we add a mid-week visit rather than stretch the schedule, and around the Rose Parade we time service around the route closure. Service is built into the rate, so compliance 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 Pasadena event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Pasadena 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 genuinely private property with clear truck access, a driveway, a cleared rebuild lot, a fenced construction site, a church or business lot, you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Pasadena. Once any part of the unit sits in the public right-of-way, which in Pasadena includes the roadway, sidewalk, parkway, drive approach, curb, and gutter, you need a Public Works permit. The Public Works Permitting division issues a Street and/or Sidewalk Occupancy Permit through the city's online Self Service Portal; most occupancy permits need a pre-inspection with a Public Works inspector and insurance naming the City of Pasadena as additional insured, and permits are issued within two business days of payment. From late November through one week after New Year's Day, a holiday moratorium limits right-of-way permits, with the start date depending on the area. The unit can never block a curb ramp, hydrant, driveway, or the clear pedestrian path. Tell us the exact address, the dates, and where you want the unit, and we confirm what your spot needs and coordinate it with Public Works 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 Pasadena and the surrounding Pasadena 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 Pasadena, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

Yes, and book early. The 138th Rose Parade is set for January 1, 2027, from 8 to 10 AM, with float decorating, Equestfest, and Bandfest in the days before and Floatfest through January 3. Pasadena Police close the route along Colorado Boulevard and Sierra Madre Boulevard to vehicles from 10 PM on December 31 to 2 PM on January 1, so we deliver to private property along the route before the closure and pick up after it reopens. The city also runs a holiday moratorium on Public Works right-of-way permits that, depending on the area, starts Thanksgiving week, around mid-December, or on Christmas Eve and ends one week after New Year's Day, so plan units on a driveway, lot, or other private ground for the holidays. Give us the address, the dates, and the headcount, and we plan the unit count, hand-wash stations, and delivery timing around the closures.
