## What renting a porta potty in Savannah is actually like

Savannah is Georgia's only coastal city on our list, and it works differently from anywhere inland. Three local realities shape almost every Savannah order: a downtown still laid out on James Oglethorpe's 1733 plan of squares and narrow lanes, where the City requires a right-of-way permit for any obstruction of a street, lane, or sidewalk; a St. Patrick's Day celebration held here since 1824 that fills the historic district every March 17, inside a spring and fall peak season for events in the squares; and a coastline where Hurricane Matthew set the record water level at Fort Pulaski in 2016 and pushed the river onto River Street. Here is how each one changes what we recommend.

### Why surge, river water, and heavy rain decide where a Savannah unit sits

Savannah has a long, hot, humid summer with frequent afternoon thunderstorms, and heat breaks waste down fast inside a tank, so odor control comes down to the service interval, not the deodorizer. We treat weekly service as the floor on busy jobsites and add a mid-week visit for large crews and food events. The bigger planning issue is water. In October 2016, Hurricane Matthew pushed the tide gauge at Fort Pulaski, just east of the city, to a record 5.05 feet above normal high tide, well above the old 1947 record, and dropped 17.48 inches of rain at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah. The National Hurricane Center reported surge flooding in the Hyatt Regency parking lot and a Savannah River restaurant on the east end of River Street. A year later, Irma brought Fort Pulaski to 4.7 feet above normal high tide.

For a portable toilet, that means the lowest ground near the river, the marshes, and tidal creeks is the wrong place to leave a unit when a storm is coming. We set units on the highest firm, level ground on site, keep them off low spots and storm drains, and anchor, move, or pull them ahead of a tropical system. Matthew's winds also brought down large oaks across Savannah's neighborhoods, many more than a century old, so on tree-shaded lots we keep units out from under heavy limbs when high wind is forecast.

### St. Patrick's Day and Savannah's peak event seasons

Savannah's Irish community has celebrated the Feast of Saint Patrick since 1824, and the St. Patrick's Day Parade runs through historic downtown every March 17. The Irish season builds for weeks before, with the greening of the Forsyth Park fountain, the Celtic Cross ceremony in Emmet Park, and a ceremony in Madison Square. Around the parade, private parties, restaurants, hotels, churches, and property owners across the historic district all want restrooms on the same days, and streets and parking are tightly controlled. Book early, give us the full setup and teardown window, and plan delivery for the days before, when streets are open.

The City of Savannah treats March, April, May, September, October, and November as peak season for events in its parks and squares, which lines up with the mild weather that brings weddings, festivals, and tours. A special event in a park, square, or public right-of-way needs a City special event permit, applied for at least 90 days ahead, and permitted events must hire an off-duty Savannah Police officer. Very small gatherings under fifty people with no setup can go without one. Restrooms for a square or park event are part of that plan, so we work from the organizer's permit and place units where the City allows. Tell us the location, date, guest count, and whether food is served, and we size units, accessible units, and hand-wash stations to match.

### Placement in the historic district, the lanes, and the City of Savannah right-of-way permit

Downtown Savannah is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the country, and it still follows Oglethorpe's plan: blocks built around squares, with narrow lanes behind the buildings. Renovation work on historic homes and storefronts is constant, and most lots have no driveway and little yard. The lane is often the only practical service access, but lanes are city right-of-way too. On these jobs we look first for space on the property itself, such as a rear courtyard, a carriage-house pad, or an off-street parking spot, and we place the unit so the truck can reach it from the lane without blocking it.

On genuinely private property with clear truck access you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Savannah. The rules change once any part of the unit sits on a street, lane, shoulder, or sidewalk. By City code, a Right-of-Way Permit from the City of Savannah Traffic Engineering Office is required for all obstructions on shoulders, streets, lanes, or sidewalks, and alley closures are a listed permit type. The City also says it will not allow the right-of-way to be used to store materials or equipment unless private property or another City facility nearby is not feasible, so we plan for on-property placement first. Tybee Island, unincorporated Chatham County, and state routes have their own rules. The unit can never block a sidewalk, a curb ramp, a driveway, a fire hydrant, or a storm drain. Give us the exact address and we confirm what your spot needs and coordinate any permit before the truck rolls.

## Porta potty rental in Savannah, GA: FAQs

### How much does a porta potty rental cost in Savannah?

A standard portable toilet in Savannah, GA starts at $295 for a weekend rental (up to 7 days) or $345 per month, with 4 service visits included in every 28-day rental. Upgrades: deluxe flushing units run $399/weekend, ADA-accessible units $399/weekend, luxury restroom trailers from $1610/weekend. Every Savannah rate is all-inclusive: delivery, pickup, fuel, and environmental and local fees are built into the one price, so there are no surprise line items. Online orders are $0.39 higher than the phone price; either way, we deliver and service the unit ourselves. Enter your ZIP for your exact Savannah rate.

### How many porta potties do I need for a Savannah jobsite (OSHA)?

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 Savannah jobsite we recommend sizing above the OSHA minimum through the long, humid summer, adding a hand-wash station at the break area, and keeping units on high, firm ground, since Matthew and Irma both pushed water well above normal high tide around the city. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

### How often should portable toilets be serviced in Savannah?

Our standard Savannah 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. In Savannah weekly is the floor. The long, humid summer breaks waste down fast, so large crews and food events get a mid-week visit rather than a stretched schedule. Downtown, the service truck usually works from the lane, so we place units where it can reach them without blocking traffic, and we schedule visits early in the day before lanes and streets fill. Around St. Patrick's Day we plan service around parade-day closures. Service is built into the rate, so compliance never depends on anyone remembering to call.

### Do I need an ADA-accessible unit for my Savannah event?

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 Savannah event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Savannah run $399 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.

### Do I need a permit for a porta potty in Savannah, Georgia?

On genuinely private property with clear truck access, a driveway, a fenced construction site, a rear courtyard, or a private lot, you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Savannah. The rules change once any part of the unit sits on a street, lane, shoulder, or sidewalk. By City code, a Right-of-Way Permit from the City of Savannah Traffic Engineering Office is required for all obstructions on shoulders, streets, lanes, or sidewalks, and the City limits use of the right-of-way for storing materials or equipment when private property nearby could be used instead. Events in parks, squares, or the right-of-way also need a City special event permit, applied for at least 90 days ahead. Tybee Island, unincorporated Chatham County, and state routes have their own rules. The unit can never block a sidewalk, a curb ramp, a driveway, a fire hydrant, or a storm drain. Tell us the exact address and we confirm what your spot needs and coordinate any permit before delivery.

### What is the difference between a standard, deluxe, and restroom trailer in Savannah?

A standard unit is the jobsite and everyday-event workhorse: enclosed, stocked, and cost-effective at $295/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 $399/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.

### Can I get same-day or weekend porta potty delivery in Savannah?

Yes. We deliver and service portable toilets throughout Savannah and the surrounding Chatham County area, with same-day and next-day drop-offs available in most of the area when you book early. Weekend event units are delivered clean before your event and picked up after. Enter your ZIP or call (866) 858-3867 and we will confirm the soonest available delivery for your address.

### Do you rent hand-wash stations in Savannah?

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 Savannah, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

### I need portable toilets for St. Patrick's Day in downtown Savannah. What should I know?

Book early and plan around street closures. Savannah's St. Patrick's Day Parade runs through historic downtown every March 17, a tradition here since 1824, and demand for restrooms across the historic district spikes at the same time. We deliver in the days before the parade, when streets are open, and place units on private property where possible, such as a rear courtyard, a parking area, or a spot reachable from the lane. If any part of the setup would sit on a street, lane, or sidewalk, the City of Savannah requires a right-of-way permit, and events in a park, square, or public right-of-way need a City special event permit applied for at least 90 days ahead. Tell us the address, dates, guest count, and whether food is served, and we plan the rest.
