We carry a full lineup of portable restrooms and sanitation equipment to fit just about any situation. Weekend graduation party, multi-week job site, large outdoor festival, we have the right unit for the job. Our inventory includes standard portable restrooms, deluxe flushable restrooms, ADA-accessible units, restroom trailers, shower trailers, hand-wash stations, specialty construction units, and holding tanks. If you are not sure what you need, call us and we will walk you through it.
The standard portable restroom is the workhorse of the industry, and for good reason. It includes a non-flush toilet, urinal, ventilation, and toilet paper, and it handles construction sites, job sites, and general outdoor events without a fuss. If you need a reliable, no-frills unit that does the job and stays clean, this is where most customers start.
Same footprint as the standard unit, but with a hand-wash sink built right inside the door. This is a smart choice for events where guests expect a bit more, or for job sites that require on-unit handwashing as part of their sanitation plan. The drop-off and pickup are on us.
The deluxe flushable restroom is our event-grade step-up. It features a foot-pump flush, a fresh-water sink, and a mirror, so guests feel like they are using something closer to a permanent facility. This unit is a popular pick for weddings, corporate events, and upscale outdoor gatherings where first impressions matter.
Our ADA-accessible units feature ground-level entry, a spacious interior, and grab bars for stability and support. Most public events require at least one accessible unit, and we recommend including one alongside any lineup as a matter of course. We carry ADA and standard units for any size event.
Restroom trailers take the experience up another level entirely. We offer units from compact two-station models up to large multi-station trailers with running water, climate control, and interior lighting. Wedding-grade and VIP configurations are available for events where comfort is part of the experience. Give us a call and we'll handle the rest.
Standalone shower trailers and shower-restroom combination units are built for situations that go beyond a single-day event. Multi-day festivals, disaster relief operations, remote worksites, and extended outdoor projects all benefit from having shower access on site. We can help you figure out the right configuration for your timeline and crew size.
Standalone hand-wash stations and hand-sanitizer stations pair with any restroom rental or stand on their own at entry points, food service areas, or high-traffic zones. They are a simple addition that makes a real difference in hygiene at any outdoor event or worksite. Call and we'll get units booked.
High-rise and multi-story job sites have specific needs that standard units cannot meet. We carry rolling units, elevator-fit portable restrooms, and crane-hoistable units designed to move safely between floors or lift to elevated work decks. If your site has unusual access requirements, we have equipment built for exactly that.
For sites with no sewer connection, holding tanks extend waste capacity so your operation keeps moving without interruption. Spill-containment trays sit beneath units to protect the ground surface from any accidental overflow. Both are straightforward additions to any rental order.
Good service isn't complicated, it's just reliable. We work with homeowners, event planners, general contractors, and businesses across York and the surrounding communities. Whatever the project, we show up prepared and we keep units clean and stocked throughout the rental.
OSHA's sanitation standards (29 CFR 1926.51) require employers to provide adequate toilet facilities for workers on job sites, and we help contractors stay in compliance without the hassle. We offer both short-term and long-term rentals with scheduled servicing to keep units clean and functional throughout the project. Whether the job runs two weeks or two years, we scale the service to match.
Outdoor weddings and private ceremonies deserve restroom options that match the occasion. We offer deluxe flushable units, restroom trailers, and ADA-accessible restrooms for backyard weddings, vineyard events, and outdoor ceremonies across York County. A local name event planners and contractors rely on, we have handled enough events to know what works.
We've handled everything from intimate weddings to multi-day festivals, so large-scale logistics are familiar territory. Multi-unit drops, coordinated placement, and twice-weekly or more frequent servicing keep things running smoothly when attendance is high. We work with event organizers to plan unit counts, placement, and service schedules well ahead of opening day.
Homeowners and party hosts are just as welcome to call as any general contractor. We offer short-term and one-day rentals for backyard parties, tailgates, graduation celebrations, and neighborhood gatherings. We make restroom rental simple.
Sometimes the need comes up fast. We offer prompt response, even on last-minute event bookings, and same-day delivery where availability allows. Farms, hunting camps, off-grid worksites, and film production locations all have unique access and timing needs, and we are used to working around them.
Most hosts have never had to plan restrooms before, so here are a few rules of thumb to get you started.
For events, plan on at least one restroom per 50 guests for a gathering lasting up to about four hours. Add more units for longer events, and add roughly 10 to 20 percent more when alcohol is being served. Include at least one ADA-accessible unit, and for larger events, plan on approximately one ADA unit for every 20 units in the lineup.
For construction and job sites, OSHA guidance provides a practical framework. One toilet generally covers up to 20 workers. Above that, plan on one toilet and one urinal per 40 workers for sites up to 200, and per 50 workers beyond that.
These are starting points, not firm quotes. Call us with your headcount, event length, and site details and we will give you a tailored recommendation.
Clean, stocked restrooms keep an event running smoothly, and that does not happen by accident. Here is what the full rental cycle looks like when you work with us.
When you call, we confirm availability, talk through unit placement, and lock in a delivery window. Our crew delivers and positions units where you need them, and we handle all the logistics on our end.
During the rental, we return on a regular service schedule to pump out waste, clean and sanitize the interior, deodorize, and restock paper and soap. Standard service runs about twice a week for typical use. High-traffic events or sites with larger crews get more frequent visits. We adjust the schedule to fit the situation.
When the rental period ends, we come back, pull the units, and close out the order. This is the kind of service planners pass along by word of mouth, and it is what we have built our reputation on in York County over the past 30 years.
We price our rentals transparently, with no surprise fees after the fact. Free estimates are available for any job, any size. We offer weekly, monthly, and short-term rental options to fit the timeline of your project or event. Same-day and last-minute delivery is available when our schedule allows, so do not hesitate to call even if the timing is tight.
We answer the phone. We show up on time. We price it fairly.
The only way to get a quote is to call us directly. We do not do online booking. A real person picks up, gets your details, and gives you a number you can count on.

|---|---|---|---|

| Gives guests an experience closer to a permanent facility. Popular for outdoor weddings and events where presentation matters. |

| Designed to move between floors without a crane. A practical solution when workers are spread across multiple levels of an active build. |
| Crane-Hoistable Unit | Elevated work decks and high-rise construction |
| When a freight elevator is not an option and workers are on an elevated deck, this unit gets lifted directly to where it is needed. |
| Trailer-Mounted Single Unit | Remote sites and frequently relocated jobs |
| A good fit for sites that shift location regularly or for situations where the unit needs to move without a full delivery crew. |

| A compact trailer option that works well when you want a step up from a standard unit without the footprint of a larger trailer. |

| Built for higher guest counts. We work with event organizers to match the station count to expected attendance and event length. |

How many portable restrooms do I need for my event?
A good starting point is one restroom per 50 guests for an event lasting up to about four hours. If your event runs longer, add more units to account for the increased use. When alcohol is being served, plan to add roughly 10 to 20 percent more units than your baseline count. Include at least one ADA-accessible unit in any lineup, and for larger events, figure on about one ADA unit for every 20 units total. These are rules of thumb, not firm quotes. Call us with your guest count, event length, and any other details and we will give you a specific recommendation.
How many units does a construction site need under OSHA rules?
OSHA's sanitation standards for construction (29 CFR 1926.51) set the requirement. As a practical guide, one toilet covers up to 20 workers. Above that, plan on one toilet and one urinal per 40 workers for sites with up to 200 workers, and one toilet and one urinal per 50 workers beyond that. These numbers apply to workers on site at any one time. We help contractors stay in compliance with scheduled delivery and regular servicing throughout the project. Call us with your crew size and project timeline and we will put together the right setup.
What does routine servicing include?
Every scheduled service visit includes pumping out waste, cleaning and sanitizing the interior, deodorizing, and restocking toilet paper and soap. For typical use, we service units about twice a week. High-traffic events and busy job sites get more frequent visits, and we build the schedule around your situation. Servicing is part of the rental, not an add-on you have to request separately.
Clean and Freshly Serviced Units
Every unit we deliver goes out clean, stocked, and ready to use. Routine servicing keeps units that way throughout your rental, with pump-outs, sanitizing, and restocking on a schedule built around your traffic.
What is the difference between a standard portable restroom and a deluxe flushable unit?
The standard unit includes a non-flush toilet, a urinal, ventilation, and toilet paper. It is the right choice for most construction sites and general outdoor events. The deluxe flushable unit adds a foot-pump flush, a fresh-water sink, and a mirror, giving guests an experience that feels closer to a permanent facility. If you are hosting a wedding, a corporate event, or any gathering where presentation matters, the deluxe unit is worth considering. We can walk you through both options when you call.
When does a restroom trailer make sense for a wedding?
A restroom trailer is a good choice when you want the restroom experience to match the quality of the rest of your event. Trailers offer private flushing stalls, running water, interior lighting, and in some configurations, climate control and high-end finishes. For a backyard wedding or a venue without permanent facilities, a trailer gives guests something that feels like a real restroom rather than a temporary unit. Our luxury and VIP trailer options are built specifically for upscale weddings and estate events. Call us with your guest count and event details and we will help you find the right fit.
Are ADA-accessible units required for public events?
Most public events are expected to include at least one ADA-accessible unit, and many venues and permits require it. We recommend including at least one accessible unit in any lineup as a matter of course. For larger events, plan on roughly one ADA unit for every 20 units in your total count. We carry both single ADA portable units and ADA-accessible restroom trailers for events that need accessible facilities at scale.
Honest Advice on How Many Units You Need
We give you a straight answer on unit counts based on your guest count, crew size, and event length. No upselling, just a practical recommendation you can count on.
What access does your truck need for delivery and placement?
Our delivery truck needs a clear path to the placement area, typically a lane wide enough for a standard service vehicle and overhead clearance if you are near trees or structures. We ask about site access when you call so we can plan the drop-off in advance. If your site has a narrow entrance, soft ground, or other access challenges, let us know and we will work out the best approach. You do not need to be on site for delivery as long as we have clear placement instructions and access to the area.
What happens to the waste when units are serviced?
When our crew services a unit, they pump out the waste tank and transport the waste to a licensed disposal facility. We handle the full cycle: delivery, servicing, and responsible waste disposal from the units we place. You do not need to arrange anything on your end. This is a standard part of every rental.
How far in advance should I book units?
Booking as early as possible is always the safer approach, especially for weddings, festivals, and large events where you need multiple units or a restroom trailer. That said, we offer prompt response on last-minute requests and same-day delivery when our schedule allows. If your event is coming up quickly, call us anyway and we will let you know what we can do. For construction sites with a known project start date, a week or two of lead time is usually enough for standard units.
ADA and Standard Units for Any Event
We carry accessible units alongside our full standard lineup, so any event or job site can meet accessibility needs without a separate call to a different supplier.
Do units arrive stocked with toilet paper and hand sanitizer?
Yes. Every unit goes out clean, stocked, and ready to use. We include toilet paper and hand sanitizer at delivery, and we restock both on every scheduled service visit throughout the rental. You do not need to supply anything on your end.
What is the difference between a hand-wash station and a hand-sanitizer station?
A hand-wash station is a self-contained unit with a foot-pump, fresh water, soap, and paper towels. It provides a full handwashing experience and is the right choice for food-service areas or anywhere hand hygiene is a priority. A hand-sanitizer station uses a touch-free dispenser and requires no water connection. It is easier to place anywhere guests or workers are moving through frequently. Both can be added to any rental order or placed on their own.
Can I add units after I have already booked?
Yes. If your guest count goes up or your crew size grows, call us and we will add units to your order and update the servicing schedule to match. We would rather adjust in advance than leave you short on the day. The sooner you let us know, the easier it is to confirm availability and coordinate the additional delivery.
