How many porta potties does a construction site need?
A construction site crew determines toilet count by headcount. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline: 1 toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer; 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 up; 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 50 workers at 200 or more. Add a service call every week under the industry standard ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which covers one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Kissimmee Porta Pros handles the scheduling. A 20 person crew needs one unit minimum. A 50 person crew gets two. The math scales fast when you're building out toward Southchase or anywhere else in our service areas. Most job sites pair units with a handwashing station, since handwashing requirements demand soap and towels or a hand drying device under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2). Hand sanitiser does not satisfy that rule.
What does delivery cost to Southchase?
Delivery fees run 50 to 150 dollars per week for standard placements, and 100 to 300 dollars for same-day or weekend service. Southchase sits 9.8 miles north of Kissimmee, so mileage into that drive lands on the higher side of the range. Call us for a quote specific to your site location and date. Rental cost stays separate from delivery. A standard unit runs 130 to 500 dollars per week depending on the term and service interval. Monthly rentals at 125 to 325 dollars per month beat the per-day rate if you're holding the unit for three weeks or longer. Roll-off dumpsters and temporary fence rental ship out to Southchase on the same truck, so bundling services cuts your total delivery cost. Check dumpster rental cost for comparison pricing on that unit. If you're running a construction site and need both sanitation and waste, one trip beats two.
What if my site is ADA accessible?
ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that where single-user portable toilet units are clustered, at least 5 percent (and never fewer than one unit) must be accessible. An ADA accessible porta potty costs 120 to 240 dollars per week and features a 32 inch clear door opening width under ADA Standards section 404.2.3, a 36 inch minimum clear width for the accessible route under ADA Standards section 403.5.1, and a 60 inch diameter turning circle under ADA Standards section 304.3.1. The unit meets all three clearances even when set in a cluster of standard models. Southchase commercial sites and event restroom rental locations often mix ADA and standard units in the same deployment. Kissimmee Porta Pros sizes the cluster to the site and codes the accessible placement on the delivery ticket so service staff know which unit gets the accessible flag. Ramp running slope cannot exceed 1:12 under ADA Standards section 405.2, so uneven ground gets a platform. Most Southchase sites don't need that. Some do.
Will a portable toilet smell bad?
A properly serviced unit does not smell. Weekly service under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 includes pumping the holding tank, restocking toilet paper and hand sanitiser, and wiping down surfaces. The 60 to 70 gallon tank on a standard unit handles 10 users for a full week without backup if you pull it once weekly. Kissimmee Porta Pros schedules the call and hits the slot. Sites that run seven days or heavy use get service twice per week at no extra trip charge if you book it upfront. Open the lid and the smell comes from anaerobic decay, not from the unit itself. Sealed tanks don't stink.
Can I rent for just one day?
Yes. Daily rental runs 100 to 350 dollars per standard unit, plus a 100 to 300 dollar delivery fee. Weekend pricing is higher than weekday, so Friday evening through Sunday evening costs 125 to 400 dollars for the unit alone. Call for a weekend quote if your event falls on Saturday or Sunday. Most short-term rentals go to event restroom rental sites, weddings, festivals, golf tournament hosting. Southchase venues book units through Kissimmee Porta Pros the same day or the day before if the site sits accessible.
What's the difference between standard and deluxe?
A deluxe unit is fully enclosed, ventilated and flushing, like an actual bathroom. Standard is an open-bottom tank with a seat and a toilet paper roll. Deluxe costs 150 to 290 dollars per week. Standard runs 130 to 500 dollars per week. A deluxe flushable porta potty suits higher-end events and sites where guests expect amenities. Construction gets standard. Southchase corporate and film set work often asks for deluxe. Both get serviced weekly.
Do I need a permit to place a unit in Southchase?
Placement in public right of way needs confirming with the city. Kissimmee Porta Pros will advise you on that requirement once you tell us the exact address. Private property placement usually does not need a permit, but Southchase may have its own rules. The city can tell you in one call. We handle placement once you have clearance.
