A standard porta potty rental in Orem runs $100 to $350 a day, $130 to $500 a week, and $125 to $325 a month, depending on rental length and how many units you need. It is the basic, no-frills unit contractors and event planners book most, and Orem Porta Pros keeps a stock of them ready for same-week delivery.
It is the unit everybody pictures: a single stall, a seat, a urinal, and a holding tank underneath. No sink, no flush handle, no frills. The tank holds 60 to 70 gallons, which covers a steady crew or a weekend crowd before it needs a pump-out. On the ground it measures about 44 by 48 inches, and it stands roughly 92 inches tall, so it fits in a driveway strip, a job site corner, or a fenced lot without eating much space. If you want more comfort, look at the deluxe flushable porta potty, which adds a flush mechanism and a hand sanitizer dispenser, or the ADA accessible porta potty for wider clearance. Most residential jobs and small events just need the standard unit. Some people search for a porta john rental or portable toilet rental, and that is the same unit under a different name. For a wider view of what we offer beyond toilets, see portable restroom rental in Orem.
Standard porta potty rental prices depend mostly on how long you keep the unit and how far we drive to deliver it. A single day rental sits at the low end of the range, a week costs more per day but less overall, and a month stretches the cost out further still. Delivery fees run separately, from about $50 for a short trip up to a few hundred for something farther out or on a tight schedule.
| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|

| week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
Weekend rentals for events or home projects run $125 to $400, a separate rate from the day-week-month table above.

If you are planning a longer job, Monthly Porta Potty Rental in Orem, UT breaks down what changes at that length. Basic porta potty rental cost stays predictable once you know the duration and the delivery distance, and Orem Porta Pros quotes both up front.
OSHA answers this one directly for construction sites. Under OSHA 1926.51(c)(1), a crew of 20 or fewer needs one toilet facility. Once you cross 20 workers, the rule adds one toilet seat and one urinal for every 40 people, and that ratio changes again above 200 workers. Events don't fall under that OSHA table, but the same logic applies: more people, more units, shorter wait times. Our general guide, How Many Porta Potties Do I Need in Orem, UT, walks through the math for both job sites and events. For farms and agricultural crews, a different standard applies. OSHA 1928.110 requires one facility per 20 hand-labor employees, placed within a quarter mile walk of the work area, plus potable water. If you're running a wedding, festival, or fair instead of a job site, our event restroom rental and festival restroom rental pages cover unit counts by guest headcount, not crew size.
Placement matters more than people expect. The unit needs stable, level ground, and if you're renting an ADA unit alongside your standard units, ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for that surface to be firm and slip resistant, not just level. Keep a clear path to the door, since service trucks need room to maneuver during pump-outs. If your project sits close to a public sidewalk or the street in Orem, placement in the right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery, since that rule varies and we have not verified a specific Orem ordinance for it. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground conditions, wind exposure, and access for service trucks in more depth. Projects in nearby Provo, about 5.6 miles southeast of Orem, or Pleasant Grove, 6.4 miles northwest, follow the same basic placement logic even though local permit rules can differ city to city. If you're not sure whether your site needs a permit at all, porta potty permit requirements is a good next stop before you finalize a delivery date.
Service frequency matters too. The industry standard under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a baseline of one service visit per week for units seeing light use, roughly 10 people over a standard 40 hour work week. Busier sites or events need more frequent pump-outs, which we schedule around your job. If you're running a longer project and want to compare against a construction-specific setup, our construction site services page bundles standard units with fencing and dumpsters for full job sites.
Day rates run $100 to $350 depending on how many units you order and how far we deliver. Renting for a full week or month brings the per-day cost down. Delivery fees are quoted separately and depend on distance and scheduling. Request a firm number through request a quote.
A standard unit measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall. It fits most driveways, job site corners, and fenced lots without crowding the space. The holding tank underneath runs 60 to 70 gallons.
