We rent portable toilets starting around $150 per day, septic pumping, roll-off dumpsters, restroom trailers, storage containers, temporary fencing and handwashing stations across Chesapeake. Most construction jobs run two to five units and a weekly service. Read on for answers that might save you time and money on your next project.
OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the baseline: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer. Add one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers as you climb above 20, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 50 workers once you hit 200 or more. The math is stricter on a construction site than it is at a festival, though, so count your workers first and think about shifts. A 40-person crew working two eight-hour shifts needs more than a 40-person single-shift job. Event planners in Chesapeake often ask whether they can serve both men and women from the same unit. The answer is yes if you're running an event. Construction rules are tighter. Call us with your site layout and crew size and we'll size the rental correctly. A standard unit runs about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands about 92 inches tall, so measure your space before you order. See our guide on how many porta potties you need for more detail.
A standard portable toilet rental holds 60 to 70 gallons and comes with a non-flush toilet, hand sanitizer and a basic interior. They're the backbone of construction work and outdoor events in Chesapeake. A deluxe unit is a step up: flushable toilet, running water, soap dispenser and a roomier interior. Both are single-stall. A deluxe flushable porta potty costs more per day but it shows your crew or guests that you've thought about comfort. If you've got three people working in your yard for a week, standard is fine. If you're hosting a wedding reception or running a longer job with office workers, deluxe makes sense. Either way, weekly rentals come out cheaper per day than daily rates. A restroom trailer is the next tier up: multi-stall, flushing toilets, sinks and mirrors, air conditioning and a full-size door. Pick standard if budget is tight, deluxe for comfort, and a trailer if you've got the space and the budget.
Yes, if you're running a public event or a job site with anyone who uses a wheelchair or mobility aid. An ADA accessible porta potty meets the standards: minimum 36 inch clear width of the accessible route, per ADA Standards section 403.5.1, and a 32 inch clear door opening, per ADA Standards section 404.2.3. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit for every five single-user portable toilets in a cluster. If you're renting for a Chesapeake construction site, your general contractor likely has the answer already. If you're running a festival or outdoor market, assume you need at least one. The cost is higher, but the access is non-negotiable legally and it's the right thing to do.
A restroom trailer rental is a towed or roll-off unit that runs on electrical power and holds multiple stalls: a 2-stall runs about 14 feet long, a 4-stall is bigger, an 8-stall is a full mobile restroom facility. They're climate controlled, have flushing toilets, running water and mirrors. Rental costs vary by unit size and duration, with weekly rates lower per day than daily rates. These are built for weddings, outdoor corporate events, film sets and long-term construction. A delivery fee applies because they need space to park and power to run. See restroom trailer rental cost for the bands you'll see in the market.
Not necessarily. A handwashing station rental is required on construction sites where employees are applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1). Hand sanitizer alone does not meet the rule. You need running water, soap and either towels or a hand drying device, per 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2). If your site involves those contaminants and you don't have a restroom trailer, rent a portable sink. If you do have a trailer, it covers the requirement. Non-construction sites don't have the same hard rules, but if you're running an outdoor event in Chesapeake and food handling is involved, a handwashing station is smart and it shows respect for public health.
We serve Chesapeake and nearby towns. Norfolk is 22.6 miles north. Suffolk is 28.3 miles west. Virginia Beach is 24.2 miles northeast. Moyock, NC is 20.2 miles southeast. We handle emergency jobs and we're quick, but distance affects delivery time and fees.
Yes. You can rent a roll-off dumpster and standard porta potty rental from the same company. One delivery truck can often place both. This is common on construction jobs. Builders in Chesapeake save money on delivery when they order together.
Septic pumping for a residential tank typically runs $150 to $300 per visit. A residential septic tank is usually pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size. If you're on a tight schedule or notice slow drains, call sooner. We handle emergency work around the clock.
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city. Call us before you order and we'll help you sort the rules. We've placed units in Chesapeake hundreds of times and we know the city's approach.
A storage container is a lockable metal box for tools, equipment or seasonal items. It sits for months. A dumpster is for trash and debris you want hauled away. Pick storage if you need to protect tools. Pick a dumpster if you're cleaning out a house, demo work or a long-term construction job.
