Porta Potty Rental Questions, Answered

We need 5 things: the delivery address or ZIP, the drop-off and pickup dates, the unit type, how many units, and the guest count or crew size. With those, a phone quote takes about 5 minutes and lists every charge.

Every quote can be sent by text or email with the unit, dates, delivery and pickup, servicing and tax on separate lines. Forward it to whoever approves the spend, then call or reply to book.

A written quote holds for 7 days. Unit availability does not hold, though, so a busy Saturday in May or June can sell out before you book. Booking locks both the price and the unit.

Book 2 to 3 weeks ahead for a Saturday between late April and June. Graduation parties, weddings and reunions stack up on the same weekends. Restroom trailers should be booked 1 to 2 months ahead for any season.

Jeremy Rental Works is a local operator. The units, trucks and drivers work out of our yard at 3345 Willow Creek Rd in Florence. When you call (843) 268-6817, the Florence office answers and schedules the truck directly.

We can text you photos of the exact unit type, inside and out, before you book. You can also see units at our Florence yard by appointment, Monday to Saturday.

Book what you know now to hold the date. Extra units, a hand wash station or an upgrade to a sink unit can be added by phone up to 24 hours before delivery, if stock allows.

Deliveries run from 7 AM to 7 PM, and routes are built each morning, so an exact minute cannot be promised. We can note "morning" on your order, and the driver calls about 30 minutes before arriving.

A dropped map pin works well for farm fields, hunting land, new lots and campsites. Text the pin to (843) 268-6817 with a short note, such as "left of the barn, 20 feet off the gravel road".

Same-day drop and pickup is not offered for events. The unit comes the business day before and leaves the business day after, at the same flat price. That way the unit is in place well before your first guest.

Our trucks stay on the driveway or street whenever possible, and the crew rolls standard units the rest of the way on a dolly. Soft, rain-soaked ground can rut, so tell us if your yard is wet and we will plan a firmer spot.

A move on the same property can be done on a service visit or a separate trip. Call or text with the new spot. Please do not move a unit yourself, because a full tank can tip and spill.

Placing a unit on a public street, sidewalk or right-of-way needs approval from the city or county first. Inside Florence city limits, ask the City of Florence. Keep the unit in your driveway or yard to avoid a permit.

Many homeowners associations allow a short-term unit for a party or remodel, but rules vary. Check your HOA covenants first. We can place the unit beside the garage or behind the house so it is not seen from the street.

Rentals are never billed by the hour or by the day. An event rental is one flat price for up to 7 days. A long-term rental is one price per 28-day cycle, with weekly service included.

The delivery and pickup charge is per trip, not per unit, for units going to the same address on the same day. Three units at one party share one delivery. Separate addresses are separate trips.

Prices on our site are before South Carolina sales tax. Your itemized quote shows the tax as its own line, so the total you approve is the total you pay.

The price covers more than the unit. It includes the truck trip both ways, a clean and deodorized unit, toilet paper and sanitizer, waste pumping and licensed disposal, and on long-term rentals, a weekly service visit.

Churches, schools and registered non-profits can ask about a reduced rate when booking 3 or more units. Tax-exempt groups can send their exemption certificate before billing so tax comes off the invoice.

There is no separate fuel surcharge and no credit card fee. The quote shows the unit, delivery and pickup, any add-ons such as same-day delivery, and sales tax. Nothing else is added later.

One standard porta potty serves about 50 guests at an event of up to 4 hours. On a jobsite, one unit with weekly service handles about 10 workers on a 40-hour week. Use the sizing calculator for your numbers.

A serviced unit has little odor. Each unit gets deodorizer in the tank, a vent stack pulls air up and out, and the lid stays down. Odor builds when a unit is overused or sits in full sun, so size correctly and pick a shaded spot.

Event units are kept separate from construction units. They go out cleaner, with no paint, tar or graffiti marks. Ask for event-grade units when you book a party, wedding or church event.

Every unit arrives with toilet paper and a filled hand sanitizer dispenser. Long-term units are restocked on each weekly service visit. For big events, keep a few spare rolls on hand between visits.

Children can use a standard unit with an adult nearby. The seat is a normal height and the door latches from inside. For lots of small kids, a wheelchair-accessible unit gives more room for a parent to help.

A service visit includes 5 steps: pumping the waste tank, washing the inside surfaces, adding fresh deodorizer, restocking toilet paper and sanitizer, and refilling water on sink units. The driver then checks the door latch and vent.

Extra service visits can be added to any rental by phone or text. Call a day ahead when you can. Busy summer jobsites and multi-day events are the most common reasons to add a visit.

Keep trash, diapers, wipes, paper towels, cigarette butts, food and liquids like grease or paint out of the tank. They clog the pump hose and can add a cleanup charge. Only waste and toilet paper go in.

Call us right away at (843) 268-6817 and keep people away from any spill. We send a crew to stand the unit up, clean up and swap it if needed. Tipping from weather or normal use is on us; vandalism is billed.

Long-term rentals bill every 28 days, not by calendar month. A unit delivered on March 3 starts its second cycle on March 31. Thirteen cycles cover a full year.

Long-term rentals renew automatically every 28 days on the card on file, and an emailed receipt follows each charge. Contractors with an approved account get an invoice each cycle instead.

Call or text (843) 268-6817 and ask for pickup. Billing stops on the day you request pickup, and the crew collects the unit within 2 business days. There is no refund for unused days inside a cycle already billed.

Copies of past receipts and invoices can be emailed any time. Give us the delivery address or the name on the order, and we resend them the same business day.

OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 requires 1 toilet for 20 or fewer workers, and 1 toilet seat plus 1 urinal per 40 workers above 20. A standard unit has both. See the construction toilet page for our servicing advice.

Public events should include at least 1 wheelchair-accessible unit, and at least 5% of units in each cluster under the 2010 ADA Standards, section 213.2. Private backyard parties are not covered the same way, but older guests appreciate one.

Plan 1 hand wash station for every 3 toilets when food is served, or choose deluxe units with sinks inside. Food vendors may have their own health rules, so check with your event organizer.

Event rentals are paid in full when booked, which holds your unit and date. Long-term rentals charge the first 28-day cycle at booking. There is no cash on delivery.

Payments are by Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover, over the phone or through a secure link. Contractors with an approved account can pay invoices by check.

Another person can pay by phone or through the payment link we send them. A landlord, a contractor or a family member can cover the bill while the unit goes to your address.

Cancel 48 hours or more before delivery for a full refund. Inside 48 hours, a $75 trip fee applies. Same-day orders cannot be refunded once the truck leaves. Full terms are on the rental terms page.

Date changes are free with 24 hours' notice, as long as a unit is open on the new date. Call or text (843) 268-6817 with the new date and we update the order and send a new confirmation.

Normal wear is on us. The renter pays for damage from vandalism, fire, misuse or moving a unit without our crew. Lock the unit at night at public sites to lower the risk.
