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 Wilmington jobsite, humid summer heat means crews drink and use the unit more than a headcount suggests, so we size above the OSHA minimum, add a hand-wash station at the break area, and keep units on raised, firm ground where heavy coastal rain will not reach them. 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 Wilmington that weekly interval is the floor for busy sites: about 45 days a year reach 90 degrees and the air stays humid, so large crews and food-service events get a mid-week visit. During multi-day events like the Azalea Festival we service between days. When a tropical storm threatens we secure or pull units, and after heavy rain we confirm access before each visit. 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 Wilmington event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Wilmington 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 fenced jobsite, or a private lot, you generally do not need a permit for a portable toilet in Wilmington. The street and sidewalk are different: the City of Wilmington Engineering department issues right-of-way permits through the City's Development and Permitting Services portal, with a scope, site plan, and temporary traffic control plan, typical reviews of about 72 hours, and up to 30 days for larger work. No rule is written specifically for portable toilets, so if your unit has to go in the right-of-way we confirm with Engineering what applies and coordinate it before delivery. Events on City streets or property go through the City's special event process, and state-maintained roads answer to NCDOT. 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 Wilmington and the surrounding New Hanover 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 Wilmington, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

We plan for it. From June through November we watch the tropics, and when a storm threatens Wilmington we secure units or pull them ahead of it, starting with exposed lots and anything near the Cape Fear River or low ground, then return them when roads reopen. Florence in 2018 showed why: more than 23 inches of rain at the airport, the river over Water Street downtown, and every road into the city closed for several days. If you need units for storm cleanup or rebuilding, call early, because access, not supply, is usually what limits delivery after a storm.
