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 Lowell jobsite, mill courtyards and tight downtown streets often leave one reachable spot, so we confirm the location and service access before delivery, 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 Lowell jobsites a fixed weekly day works. Multi-day events like the Folk Festival get service between days, before the crowds return. In spring, when snowmelt and rain push the Merrimack up, we check units near the river and on mill properties first, and in winter we winterize the tank and route service after the plows. 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 Lowell event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Lowell 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 mill yard, a fenced jobsite, or a parking lot, you generally do not need a City permit for a portable toilet in Lowell. The street and sidewalk are different: Lowell's Department of Public Works handles dumpster, street opening, and trench permits through its Administration and Finance Division, and its Engineering Division covers streets, sidewalks, and permitting. The City does not publish a permit written specifically for portable toilets, so we confirm what your curbside spot needs and coordinate it with the DPW before delivery. Events run on a separate permit from the Office of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, with two to six months' notice depending on size. A unit can never block a sidewalk, curb ramp, hydrant, or driveway. Tell us the exact address and we confirm which permit applies.

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

Start with the City's permit timeline. Under Lowell's event rules, new as of January 1, 2026, road races and festivals need two months' notice to the Office of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, and major festivals with over 500 attendees need six months. The application includes a map of the event footprint, so decide restroom and hand-wash locations before you file. Book with us as soon as your date is set, especially for late July, when the free Lowell Folk Festival fills downtown. We place units exactly where your approved map shows, add accessible units on a level path, deliver before street closures, and service between days on multi-day events.
