If only one person uses it, does it still need weekly service?

A light-use unit still gets weekly service so the tank, paper and sanitizer stay fresh. The visit keeps odor down even when the tank is not full.

What does a monthly rental mean?

A monthly rental is billed every 28 days, not by calendar month. That cycle includes weekly service. The rental renews every 28 days until you call for pickup.

How do I schedule pickup?

Event rentals have the pickup date set when you book. Long-term rentals are not picked up automatically; call or text us when you are done, and billing stops at the end of that cycle.

Do your porta potties have a sink?

Standard units have a hand-sanitizer dispenser, not a sink. Deluxe units have a built-in fresh-water sink with a foot pump. For events with food, add a stand-alone hand-wash station.

Do I need a porta potty for a bathroom remodel?

You need a porta potty for a bathroom remodel when it is your only bathroom, or when the contractor's crew should not use the house. Many Winchester-area contractors include one in the job; ask before you rent. A one-bathroom home remodel usually runs 4 to 8 weeks.

Which unit works best for a family?

A deluxe unit with a sink works best when a family will use it, since everyone can wash hands without going inside. A standard unit is fine for a crew. For a long septic repair, ask about adding a hand-wash station near the back door.

Where should it go at my house?

At a house, set the unit on the driveway edge or a side yard, on level ground the truck can reach within about 25 feet, and away from bedroom windows. Face the door toward the house, not the street. Check HOA rules if the job will run more than a month.
