How Much Is a Porta Potty Rental for a Day?
For standard porta potty rental in Wellington, day pricing sits between $100 and $350, with the typical order closer to $150. That's the base unit rate before delivery. A delivery fee for a single day usually falls between $100 and $500, since a driver still has to make the trip whether the unit sits for one day or thirty. If you need something nicer than a standard unit, a deluxe flushable porta potty for one day can run anywhere from $85 to $1,200 depending on the model and add-ons. Weekend jobs price differently than a weekday rental, so if your event runs Saturday into Sunday, ask about the weekend rate instead of stacking two day rates. Wellington sits 5.7 miles southwest of Royal Palm Beach and 10.4 miles west of Greenacres, and trucks routing through either town affect same-day availability. For anyone comparing a single day against a longer stretch, the porta potty rental cost page breaks down week and month pricing side by side, and the porta potty rental per day numbers here are the baseline everything else builds from.
Why Does One Day Cost More Per Day Than a Week?
A one-day rental costs more per day than a week-long rental because the delivery and pickup trip is the expensive part, not the toilet sitting there. A standard unit for a full week runs $130 to $500, which spreads that same delivery cost across seven days instead of one. Renting for a monthly porta potty rental term brings the day-equivalent cost down even further, from $125 to $325 for the whole month. This is why a contractor doing a multi-week job on a construction site services contract almost always saves money booking by the week or month rather than calling in a new one-day order every few days. If your event is a single afternoon, though, day pricing is still the right call, and it beats paying for a week you don't need.
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $100 | $150 | $350 |
| Week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| Month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
What Affects Porta Potty Rental Prices Per Day?
Unit type is the biggest swing factor. A standard unit with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank costs less per day than an ADA accessible porta potty, which runs $200 to $400 for a single day because of the larger footprint and required clearances. ADA Standards section 304.3.1 calls for a 60 inch turning circle inside accessible units, and section 213.2 requires that at least 5 percent of clustered units be accessible, never fewer than one, so events near the Village's public spaces often need to budget for at least one ADA unit alongside the standard order. Delivery distance matters too. Wellington Porta Pros trucks cover routes out toward Palm Springs, 12.1 miles east, and Lake Worth Beach, 16.1 miles east, and jobs further out can carry a higher delivery fee. Rush orders placed the same morning cost more than orders placed a few days ahead, which is covered in more detail on the emergency porta potty rental page. If you're not sure how many units your event or crew needs, the how many porta potties do I need guide walks through headcounts and hours.
Is a One Day Rental Right for My Event or Job Site?
A one-day rental fits weddings, block parties, one-day festivals, and short punch-list jobs where crews are in and out before dark. For anything running a construction crew across multiple days, OSHA 1926.51(c) sets toilet counts by crew size, starting at one facility for 20 workers or fewer, and a day rental rarely makes sense once you're past a single shift. Weddings and private parties in Wellington often pair a day rental with a wedding restroom rental trailer for guests, keeping the standard units for staff and catering crews. Farms and agricultural operations have their own rule: OSHA 1928.110 requires field sanitation facilities within a quarter mile walk for hand-labor employees, one per 20 workers, which usually points toward a multi-day or seasonal rental rather than a single day. If you're planning a race, fair, or golf outing, check the event restroom rental page or the more specific festival restroom rental and golf tournament restrooms pages, since headcount and hours change the math more than the calendar date does.
How much does a porta potty rental cost per day near me?
In Wellington, expect $100 to $350 for a standard unit for one day, plus a delivery fee that's usually $100 to $500. The final number depends on how many units, how far the delivery route runs, and how soon you need the truck there.
What's included in a one day porta potty rental?
The unit itself, delivery, pickup, and a stocked, serviced toilet are standard. A 60 to 70 gallon holding tank comes pre-serviced. Hand sanitizer or a separate handwashing station rental is usually a separate line item unless you ask for a package deal.
Can I get a porta potty delivered the same day in Wellington?
Sometimes, depending on truck availability that day. Same-day and rush orders typically carry a higher delivery fee than a standard scheduled delivery. Calling a day or two ahead keeps costs down and guarantees your delivery window.
Is a day rental cheaper than a weekend rental?
Not always. A weekend rate for a standard unit runs $125 to $400 and often covers Friday through Monday morning, which can cost less per day than booking two separate single-day rentals back to back.
Do I need an ADA unit for a one day event?
If your event is open to the public, yes, in most cases. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster of portable toilets, even for a single-day rental.
