How Much Is a Porta Potty Rental for a Day?
Lehi Porta Pros prices single-day standard units, so the porta potty rental price per day and the porta potty rental cost for one day are the same number, between $100 and $350, with $150 as the typical rate homeowners and small job sites pay. The spread depends on how far the delivery truck has to drive, whether it is a rush order, and if you need more than one unit. A weekend rental sits between $125 and $400, since Friday drop-off and Monday pickup covers more calendar time than a straight eight-hour day. If you are comparing options, porta potty rental cost breaks down multi-day pricing, and monthly porta potty rental is worth a look if your job runs past a week. A standard unit holds a 60 to 70 gallon tank and stands about 92 inches tall, which is plenty for a one-day pour crew or a backyard party in Lehi. Delivery fees run $100 to $500 separately, so ask what is bundled before you book. For projects near American Fork, 5.9 miles southeast of Lehi, or Draper, 8.4 miles north, drive time can move the delivery fee toward the higher end of that band.
Why Does the Price Change from Day to Day?
Delivery distance is the biggest swing factor, followed by how many units you order and how fast you need them there. A same-day emergency call costs more than a job booked a week out, and that logic runs through emergency porta potty rental pricing too. Saratoga Springs sits 8.1 miles southwest of Lehi and Riverton is 13.0 miles northwest, so a delivery truck already routing through Lehi for another job usually costs less than a stand-alone trip out to Taylorsville, 20.3 miles north. Unit type matters just as much as distance. A standard porta potty rental is the cheapest option per day, a deluxe flushable porta potty runs higher because of the flush mechanism and larger footprint, and an ADA accessible porta potty costs more still, priced $200 to $400 for a single day to account for the wider unit and ramp-compatible base, with weekly rentals of the same unit running higher than a weekend once the whole rental period is booked out. ADA Standards section 304.3.1 calls for a 60 inch turning circle inside accessible units, which takes up more manufacturing cost than a standard 44 by 48 inch footprint. If you are ordering for a jobsite with more than a handful of workers, check how many porta potties do I need before you call, since OSHA 1926.51(c) sets toilet ratios by crew size and under-ordering costs more in emergency add-on fees than getting the count right the first time.
Price Comparison by Unit and Duration
| Unit | Day | Week | Weekend |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $100 - $350 | $130 - $500 | $125 - $400 |
| ADA Accessible | $200 - $400 | $199 - $300 | $199 - $300 |
| Deluxe Flushable | $85 - $1,200 | $150 - $290 | -- |
Deluxe day pricing has a wide spread because it covers everything from a basic flush unit to a trailer-style upgrade, so ask specifically what is included when you get a quote. For weddings or events where appearance matters more than budget, wedding restroom rental and deluxe flushable porta potty are worth comparing side by side against a restroom trailer rental if the guest count justifies it.
What Is Included in a One-Day Rental?
Portable toilet rental cost per day includes delivery, pickup, and a single service visit, which matches the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one cleaning per week for units seeing normal traffic. For a one-day event that baseline is already covered, so you are not paying for extra service you will not use. Placement matters more than people expect. The delivery truck needs roughly 60 feet of straight clearance for a roll-off, and while a portable toilet does not need that much room, a flat, stable surface near the work area speeds up drop-off. ADA Standards section 302.1 requires stable, firm, slip-resistant ground for accessible units, and section 403.5.1 calls for a 36 inch clear path to reach the unit, both worth checking before delivery day if you are renting an ADA accessible porta potty. Confirm placement rules with the city if the unit sits anywhere near a public sidewalk or right of way, since that is not something to guess on. For construction crews, pair the toilet with a handwashing station rental, since 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand dryer at wash stations, not just sanitizer. If your crew is doing paint or coating work, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities specifically for that contaminant exposure.

How much is a porta potty rental for a day?
Porta potty rental prices per day for standard units run $100 to $350 in Lehi, typically near $150. The final number depends on delivery distance, order timing, and whether you need an ADA or deluxe unit instead of a basic standard stall.
Is one-day rental cheaper than a weekend rental?
Yes, per unit, but not by much once you compare total coverage. A weekday rental at $100 to $350 covers roughly eight hours of service, while a weekend rental at $125 to $400 covers Friday through Monday, so it is actually a better rate per hour.
Do I need a permit for a one-day porta potty rental in Lehi?
That depends on placement. If the unit sits on private property, it is usually fine, but placement near a sidewalk or public right of way needs confirming with the city. Check porta potty permit requirements before delivery day.
How many porta potties do I need for a one-day event?
It depends on guest or crew count. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets a ratio of one toilet per 20 workers for construction crews. For events, see how many porta potties do I need for a full breakdown by attendance.
Does the daily rate include delivery and pickup?
Usually yes, but delivery fees can run $100 to $500 separately depending on distance and timing. Confirm what is bundled when you request a quote through request a quote or ask directly on contact.
