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 Lake Charles jobsite, we size above the OSHA minimum because crews drink and use the unit more through a long, humid heat season, add a hand-wash station at the break area, and plan to secure or remove units ahead of a named storm. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

Our standard 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 Lake Charles, weekly is the floor from late spring through early fall, when highs run near 92 and nights stay near 75, so busy jobsites and events get a mid-week visit. After heavy rain we confirm low-lying sites are reachable before the truck goes in, and in hurricane season we adjust the schedule around the forecast, securing or pulling units before a storm and restoring service as soon as roads open. 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 Lake Charles event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Lake Charles run $374 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, parking lot, fenced jobsite, or yard, you generally do not need a City permit for a portable toilet in Lake Charles. The street is different: Lake Charles City Code makes it unlawful to maintain or leave any obstruction on a paved street within the city, and the director of public works is authorized to remove one. The City does not publish a specific permit for placing a portable toilet in the street, so we plan placement on private ground first and, if a public spot is truly the only option, confirm with City Public Works what applies before delivery. Parades and special events follow City Code rules, and events in Mardi Gras season that need city council approval must be permitted by July 1 of the year before. A unit can never block a sidewalk, curb ramp, hydrant, driveway, or storm drain.

A standard unit is the jobsite and everyday-event workhorse: enclosed, stocked, and cost-effective at $270/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 $374/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 Lake Charles and the surrounding Calcasieu County 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 Lake Charles, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

We plan for it with you. Lake Charles saw Hurricane Laura's category 4 center pass very near the city on August 27, 2020, with a 119-knot gust observed in town, and Hurricane Delta made landfall about 10 nautical miles east of Laura's landfall point six weeks later, so we treat hurricane season seriously. When a storm is forecast, we either secure units by strapping them to something solid or moving them behind a structure, or we pick them up before the storm and redeliver once roads are open. After a storm, recovery crews need restrooms fast; tell us your site and crew size early and we will set units and hand-wash stations on firm, level ground away from ditches and drains.
