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 Austin jobsite, where Central Texas summers stack up triple-digit days for weeks, crews hydrate and use the unit more than a bare headcount suggests, so we recommend sizing above the OSHA minimum, adding a hand-wash station at the break area, and, on low ground near a creek or storm drain in Flash Flood Alley, siting and anchoring units clear of the water path rather than leaving them loose. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

Our standard Austin 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 Austin that weekly interval is the floor, not the ceiling. Central Texas summers stack up triple-digit afternoons for weeks at a time, and sustained 100-degree heat breaks waste down fast and lets odor build within days, so on high-traffic jobsites and food-service events we add a mid-week visit rather than stretch the schedule. Where the site allows it we also place units in some afternoon shade so they stay usable through the peak of the day. 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 Austin event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Austin 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 genuinely private property with clear truck access, a driveway, a fenced construction site, a backyard, or a private lot, you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Austin. Austin is a traditionally zoned city, and in some neighborhoods an HOA may have its own rules on placement and duration, so on an HOA lot it is worth a quick check first. The moment any part of the unit sits on a public street, curb lane, or sidewalk, that public right-of-way is managed by the City of Austin Transportation and Public Works Department's Right-of-Way (ROW) Management Division at the Austin Permitting and Development Center, which issues the temporary permits that cover it, including the Parking Permit for temporary loading, unloading, or placing a temporary storage device in the ROW and the Temporary Use of Right-of-Way Permit (TURP) for above-ground work that closes or barricades part of the ROW; work in the ROW under City Code Chapter 14-11 can also require a licensed ROW contractor, insurance, and a bond. The unit can never block a sidewalk, a curb ramp, a driveway, a fire hydrant, or the clear pedestrian path. Tell us the exact address and whether the drop is private or in the right-of-way, and we confirm what your spot needs and coordinate the permit before delivery.

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

Earlier than most people expect, especially around the festival calendar. SXSW packs downtown every March (the 2025 conference and festivals drew about 309,327 participants), and Austin City Limits fills Zilker Park over two October weekends at roughly 75,000 people a day, around 450,000 total, and those plus the F1 weekend and the downtown event calendar pull temporary-restroom inventory and delivery windows off the market fast. One planning note: SXSW ran shorter in 2026 (March 12 to 18) and dropped its music-only final weekend while the Convention Center is redesigned through 2029, so book against the festival economy rather than a single fixed date. Give us the date, the venue, and the guest count, and we lock the unit count, the ADA ratio, the service interval for the summer heat, the delivery-and-pickup timing, and any street-closure or right-of-way permit around your event.
