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 Gaithersburg jobsite, we confirm the location and truck access before delivery, including whether the street is a City, County, State, or private road, size above the OSHA minimum for the crew, and add a hand-wash station at the break area. 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. For most Gaithersburg jobsites a fixed weekly day works. In winter we winterize the tank and plan around the City's plow order, since courts are cleared after primary, secondary, and neighborhood roads and a full pass of City streets takes 12 to 14 hours. Multi-day events like the County Fair get service between days, before the gates 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 Gaithersburg event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Gaithersburg 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.

On private property with clear truck access, a driveway, a parking lot, a fenced jobsite, or a yard, you generally do not need a City permit for a portable toilet in Gaithersburg, though HOA rules may apply. In the public right-of-way, the City's Planning and Code Administration issues a Public Right of Way Permit, and its Temporary Occupancy section covers anything that impedes vehicular or pedestrian traffic or parking, including dumpsters and portable storage containers; an HOA letter of approval may be required. Some Gaithersburg roads are County, State, or private rather than City streets, and those have different owners. Portable toilets are not named on the form, so we confirm which road your spot is on and coordinate the right approval before delivery. Events that affect streets, sidewalks, or public land also need a City Special Event Permit. A unit can never block a sidewalk, curb ramp, hydrant, or driveway.

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.

Yes. We deliver and service portable toilets throughout Gaithersburg and the surrounding Montgomery 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.

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

Plan around the City's Special Event Permit timeline, not just ours. Gaithersburg asks for applications three months ahead for events of 1,000 or more people, events at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds, and events with food or alcohol, generators, inflatables, fireworks, or live animals, and two months ahead for smaller events, and it does not accept applications less than four weeks out. Every application needs a detailed site plan, so send us your headcount, hours, and layout early and we will tell you how many units and hand-wash stations to show on it. Busy dates like Oktoberfest weekend in October and fair week in August fill quickly. Neighborhood block parties under 200 guests, on a local street, ending before 9 p.m., and not selling food or alcohol can use the City's simpler Neighborhood Event application.
