How does a 28-day jobsite rental work?
The unit bills every 28 days at the same rate with one weekly service, delivery is charged once, and pickup is free. Billing stops the day you call for pickup. A builder starting a 12-month, 68-unit apartment project in our log began with two units and planned to add more as crews arrived.
“We just started, so I need a couple, but then when we get more guys on the job, we'll need more.”
| Months on site | Cycles billed | Delivery fee |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | Once |
| 3 | 4 | Once |
| 6 | 7 | Once |
| 12 | 14 | Once |
Can you send a certificate of insurance?
Yes. General contractors and property managers can request a COI naming the owner or GC, plus a W-9, when they book. We email both within one business day. Accounts with several sites get one monthly invoice and a named dispatcher.
“Everybody that comes onto our job site, we ask for insurance in case something happens.”

How many porta potties does my crew need?
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 Table D-1 requires 1 toilet for 20 or fewer workers, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers. Our units include a urinal. A 68-unit apartment build that starts with a few framers can begin with two units and add more as trades arrive.
How much is a porta potty by the month?
A standard construction porta potty in Tyler runs about $179–$199 every 28 days, with one cleaning and restock each week included. Delivery is a one-time $49 charge, and pickup is included — there is no separate removal fee. A unit with a sink runs about $279 per 28 days.
How often do you clean a monthly porta potty?
Once a week, included in the 28-day price: pump the tank, scrub the seat, floor and walls, wipe the sink, and restock paper, sanitizer and deodorizer. Big crews or summer heat can add a second weekly visit for a quoted price.
Can you send a certificate of insurance?
Yes. General contractors and property managers can request a certificate of insurance naming the site owner when they book. A builder in our log explained why: “everybody that comes onto our job site, we ask for insurance in case something happens.” We email it within one business day.
Can my company open an account?
Yes. Builders, roll-off companies, churches and property managers can open an account with one monthly invoice across all sites, emailed W-9 and COI, and a named dispatcher. A company that rents often should ask for contractor pricing on 5+ units.
Can I get one delivered tomorrow?

Order by 2 PM and the unit arrives the next business day, with no rush fee in our daily-route ZIPs (Tyler, Whitehouse, Lindale, Bullard, Flint, Chandler, Winona, Arp and Troup).
