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 Milwaukee jobsite we recommend sizing above the bare OSHA minimum so crews never wait, adding a hand-wash station at the break area, and in the winter months winterizing the unit so a frozen tank and lake-effect snow never take it out of service. Tell us the crew size and we will size the order to the standard.

Our standard Milwaukee 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. That weekly interval is the floor, not the ceiling: we add a mid-week visit on high-traffic jobsites and food-service events, and in the cold months, when January highs sit near 28 degrees and lake-enhanced snow and wind come off Lake Michigan, we hold service on schedule and winterize the tank so waste never sits and freezes solid between visits. 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 Milwaukee event needs at least one accessible unit; a larger one needs one per every 20 standard units. ADA units in Milwaukee 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 access, a driveway, a private parking lot, a fenced construction site, or a port terminal, you generally do not need a city permit for a portable toilet in Milwaukee. The moment any part of the unit sits on a public street, alley, sidewalk, or terrace, a permit comes into play and the unit can never block a curb ramp, a hydrant, a building entrance, or the clear pedestrian path. In Milwaukee, work in and obstruction of the public way is handled by the Department of Public Works under the city ordinances covering street construction and use of public ways, and a lakefront festival grounds carries its own site rules on top of any city requirement. Because this is a working port and manufacturing city, many of our jobs sit on private industrial ground where the real constraints are truck access, overhead clearance, and staying clear of forklift and equipment traffic rather than a permit. The exact path depends on the block, the use, and the duration, so tell us the exact address, whether the drop is private, on a terminal, or in the right-of-way, and whether it is construction or an event, and we confirm the requirement and coordinate it 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 Milwaukee, plan a station near the vendors and one near the toilets to cover both inspection points.

As early as the calendar allows, especially anything overlapping the Summerfest stretch or the back-to-back ethnic-festival weekends on the lakefront. Milwaukee calls itself the home of the world's largest music festival, and Summerfest runs across three summer weekends at Henry Maier Festival Park and draws hundreds of thousands of fans, concentrating temporary-restroom demand into a few blocks of the lakefront. Around it the city stacks German Fest, Irish Fest, Mexican Fiesta, and the rest of the festival lineup at the same grounds, plus Brewers and Bucks home dates, so units and delivery windows go fast. Give us the event date, the guest or crew count, and whether the site is a private lot, a festival grounds, a park, or the public street, and we lock the unit count, any wind or weather considerations, the delivery-and-pickup timing, and any city permit around your event.
