Most porta potty rentals in Mobile run about $150 for a standard unit for one day, or roughly $200 for a week with service included. A deluxe flushable model or an ADA unit costs more. Delivery, weekly service and final pickup are separate line items. If you want to rent a porta potty and see real portable toilet rental cost figures, this is the page. Below is the full price breakdown, plus what changes the number.
The short version on how much porta potty rental runs: a standard porta potty is the cheapest way to cover a job or party, and a port o john rental sits in the same band, and the deluxe flushable unit sits above it. An ADA accessible unit costs more again because of size and the ADA turning circle built into it. Mobile Porta Pros quotes by unit type first, then rental length. A weekend party is priced differently than a six month construction job. If you only need a rough figure or want to rent a porta john by the day, our cost per day page breaks that out. For the long haul, the monthly rental page is the one to read. Want a real number for your address? Send a quote request and we price it same day.

| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| Deluxe flushable | $250 | $290 | - |
| ADA accessible | $230 | $240 | - |
A standard unit carries a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank and sits about 44 by 48 inches on the ground, so it fits most yards. The ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 standard sets one service visit a week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Need port o potties for rent to cover the whole party? The porta john page and the restroom rental page go deeper if you want to rent a portable restroom. For events specifically, start with event restrooms.
These three ride on top of the portable toilet rental cost, and honest quotes show them broken out. Rent porta potty prices always split these lines out. Rolling them into one number is how a low headline price hides the real total. Our full cost guide and the rental checklist both walk through this.
| Line item | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delivery | $100 | $120 | $172 |
| Service | $100 | $120 | $150 |
Pickup is folded into the delivery and service structure, so ask where it lands before you sign. A handwashing station or a portable sink adds a line too. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities need soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not meet it. If your crew handles paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires actual washing facilities. See the handwashing requirements page for that. A sanitizer station is a supplement, not a substitute.
A restroom trailer is a different animal. It has flushing toilets, running water and climate control, so the price jumps. Weddings and upscale events are where it earns its keep. A weekend trailer rental runs around $2,000, quoted in prose because it is a short-term rate.
| Unit | Day | Week | Event |
|---|---|---|---|
| Restroom trailer | $800 | $1,397 | $3,500 |
The 2 stall trailer suits a backyard wedding. Bigger crowds need the 4 stall or the 8 stall. For high-end guest lists, the luxury trailer is the call, and there is a shower trailer for multi-day setups. The trailer cost page has the full breakdown. A trailer needs a 200 amp style power feed or a generator, so plan the temporary power pole early. Wedding restrooms and festival restrooms both lean on trailers.
Same unit, different price, and there is a reason every time. Distance is one. Mobile Porta Pros serves the whole metro, but a drop in Fairhope 22.3 miles southeast carries more drive time than one in Tillmans Corner 10.4 miles southwest. Rental length is another: a one day rate looks high per day but a monthly rate spreads the delivery cost. Unit type matters most. A deluxe flushable unit costs more to stock and service than a standard one. Service frequency drives it too. A busy site may need two visits a week instead of the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one. Placement plays in as well. Our placement guide covers access, and cleaning frequency explains service. See the main cost page for the summary.
Count drives cost more than anything else. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers above that, and one per 50 at 200 or more. Get the count right and you avoid renting units you do not need. Our how many do I need guide does the math, and the OSHA requirements page lays out the rules. For clusters of single-user units, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, to be accessible. That means an ADA unit on almost every job. A festival needs a different count than a home renovation. Mobile Porta Pros sizes it with you. If you want the plain version of how these units function, read how porta potties work.
A fair quote names the unit, the rental length, the service schedule and the delivery and pickup charges as separate lines. If a price seems too low, one of those lines is missing. A standard portable toilet for a weekend party should list the unit rate plus delivery plus one service visit. A construction dumpster or a roll-off on the same site gets its own line, and a roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck. Bundling a temporary fence or a storage container often trims the per-item delivery. Ask about it. The FAQ page answers the common ones, and contact us if a line does not make sense. Compare against our per day rates to sanity check.
Numbers land better with examples, and they show how much portable toilet rental really comes to. Here are three, using the bands above. A backyard wedding in Daphne, 16.8 miles east, might take one deluxe flushable unit for the weekend near the $250 weekend rate, plus delivery and one service. A construction crew in Mobile of 30 workers needs two standard units under OSHA 1926.51(c)(1), rented monthly with weekly service, plus a handwashing station since the crew works with coatings under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1). A church festival in Saraland, 19.2 miles north, might pair a 4 stall trailer with several standard units and an ADA unit to meet ADA Standards section 213.2. Each job also pulls septic support: our septic pumping service and emergency septic line cover the tanks. Send a quote request with your details.
A standard unit runs about $150 for a single day before delivery and service, which is the base price for portable toilet rental in Mobile. That per-day figure drops fast when you rent by the week or month, since the delivery cost spreads out. Our per day page shows the full daily breakdown.
No. A weekend standard rate sits around $250, above the weekly rate, because a short-term rental still carries a full delivery and pickup trip. A week gives you more days for less premium. The monthly option is the cheapest per day of all.
Service is usually a separate line, though it is often bundled into a weekly or monthly quote. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one visit a week as the baseline for up to 10 users. Busier sites need more. See how often units are cleaned for the schedule.
An ADA unit is larger to fit the 60 inch turning circle in ADA Standards section 304.3.1 and the 36 inch route in section 403.5.1. More material, more space on the truck. The ADA restroom requirements page explains what you are paying for.
Delivery runs about $150 for a single drop, less on a weekly cycle. Distance moves it. A run to Spanish Fort, 21.1 miles east, costs more drive time than one to Prichard, 11.3 miles north. Ask for it as its own line on every quote.
Often, yes. Bundling a dumpster, a storage container or temporary fencing onto the same delivery trip trims the per-item delivery charge. One truck, one trip. Tell us the full list on your quote request so we can combine it.
Per day, absolutely. A month spreads the delivery and pickup across more days, so the daily rate falls well below the one-day price. The unit itself never gets cheaper for a shorter term. Our monthly rental page shows how that math works in Mobile.
