Finding a local vendor who rents portable toilets for your next event can be a simple task. Just follow these steps.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Phone book
  • Computer
  • Phone
  1. Step 1

    Determine your needs, including how many people will be attending your event. The vendor will be able to help you determine how many portable toilets you will need by the number of people you are expecting.

  2. Step 2

    Search the yellow pages for "portable toilets." If there aren't any listings, look under "construction" or "event planning." Also try the computer for general portable toilet rental companies.

  3. Step 3

    Call to reserve the portable toilet and check on delivery and pickup information. Make sure to get a detailed explanation on how delivery and pickups are handled so you will be prepared.

  4. Step 4

    Check the toilets to make sure they are clean and stocked with toilet paper.

  5. Step 5

    Make a deposit or pay for the portable toilet in full, according to the rental policy.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure to inspect the portable toilet before your event. Some may have to be filled with toilet paper while some may have missing pieces such as a lock or door handle.
  • Be sure to check the inside walls of the portable toilet. Some may have offensive graffiti.

on 7/16/2009 In NY NJ & PA the best portable toilet company is Johnny on the Spot - http://www.johnnyonthespot.com. They never send a portable bathroom that's been on a construction site to someone who's renting for a party, so you never have to worry about graffiti or filthy toilets for your guests.

on 7/13/2009 I have found that http://www.mesawasteservices.com/ provides on-line quotes from companies that supply all types of portable toilets and mobile restrooms, showers. I believe it covers all, if not most of the U.S.

on 1/24/2009 The Best Portable toilet company I found in Los Angeles, CA is Eagle Portables Inc. Their equipment is the newest and cleanest I have ever seen. Eagle Portables Inc, provides porta pottys for the USC Trojans home games, and even though the toilets are very used at the games, these toilets are the cleanest I have ever seen. I rented a portable toilet from Eagle Portables Inc. I will not trade for any other company.
