How many portable toilets do I need?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline for construction work: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer; one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up; one toilet seat and one urinal per 50 workers at 200 or more. A special event needs fewer units per person but service must happen more often. A wedding with 150 guests might need 3 standard units. A three-week building renovation in Perris with 12 crew members needs 1 unit. Soil conditions, weather, and daily foot traffic affect the math. Call us with your headcount and timeline and we'll size it correctly. See our how many porta potties guide for the full calculation method.
What's the difference between a standard unit and a deluxe one?
A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and sits on the ground about 44 by 48 inches, standing roughly 92 inches tall. It's the job-site workhorse. A deluxe flushable porta potty adds an internal flush mechanism, hand sanitizer dispenser, and a roomier cabinet. Deluxe units cost more upfront but reduce odor complaints and feel less spartan. An ADA accessible porta potty meets ADA Standards section 213.2, includes a 60 inch diameter turning circle per ADA Standards section 304.3.1, and a 32 inch door opening width per ADA Standards section 404.2.3. Choose based on who uses it and how long the rental runs. Perris businesses holding public events almost always prefer deluxe or ADA units. Standard units work fine for short-term construction.

What happens during a service visit?
A service technician pumps out the tank, restocks toilet paper and soap, cleans the interior, and deodorizes. We follow ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, the portable sanitation service standard. One visit per week is standard for units serving up to 10 users over a 40 hour work week. Heavy-use sites, festivals, large construction crews, outdoor dining, get serviced twice weekly or daily. Restroom trailers include flushable toilets connected to holding tanks that we pump on schedule. A residential septic tank pumping follows a different timeline. Residential septic tanks are typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size. During service, we never leave a site without fresh water and soap, as 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires washing facilities be provided with soap and with towels or a hand drying device.
What can't go in a dumpster?
Hazardous materials, asbestos, paint thinner, motor oil, batteries, tires and electronics are banned. Most construction debris, wood, drywall, concrete, metal, is fine. Soil and yard waste sometimes need a separate container. See our what cannot go in a dumpster page for the full list. Call before renting if you're unsure about a specific load. Roll-off dumpster rental in Perris starts with a delivery fee and a weekly rate. A 10 yard dumpster handles most home renovations. Larger jobs use 20, 30 or 40 yard sizes. Weight limits apply; we'll quote those when you describe the job.
How long does septic pumping take?
Most residential septic tanks pump out in 1 to 2 hours. We locate the tank access, pump the contents into our truck, rinse the tank interior, and dispose of waste at an approved facility. A grease trap pumps faster, usually 30 to 45 minutes, but needs service more often. A grease interceptor is pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth. We recommend how often to pump a septic tank guidance. Commercial grease traps pump when solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth. See our grease trap pumping page for trap maintenance details. Emergency pumping is available when a tank backs up.
