Porta Potty Rental FAQ for Akron Renters

Call (330) 237-6633 or send the quote form. We confirm the address, dates, units and placement, read you one total price, and take payment by card or secure link.

For most rentals, 2–3 business days is plenty. Book 3–4 weeks ahead for graduation parties and holiday weekends, and 6–10 weeks for wedding restroom trailers.

The quote form takes seven quick fields. We call or text back with the total, usually within 30 minutes during business hours, and send a secure pay link.

Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express and debit cards. Approved businesses, schools and governments can pay by check or ACH on net-30 terms.

Rentals are paid when you book, so the unit can be put on a route. Restroom trailers take a 50 percent deposit.

A relative, employer or accounts payable team can pay through the secure link we send. The payer and the on-site contact can be different people.

Purchase order numbers can go on any invoice. Net-30 accounts can be billed against a PO after approval.

Card details are entered on a secure payment page or read once over the phone and never stored in emails or texts.

We email or text a written quote with every line item. Quotes are held for 7 days.

Send your Ohio exemption certificate before payment and sales tax is removed from the invoice.

All of Akron and Summit County, plus towns in Portage, Medina, Stark, Wayne and parts of Cuyahoga County. Farther Ohio cities are served on scheduled routes.

Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. There are no Sunday deliveries.

Every driver calls the on-site number about 30 minutes ahead, and texts a photo after the unit is placed.

Day-before delivery is our standard for events, at no extra charge.

We do not rent units for customer pickup. Every unit is delivered and set by our crew so it arrives level and secure.

Send a dropped map pin or GPS coordinates, plus a description of the entrance. New subdivisions and rural lots are routine for us.

The driver calls if a route runs behind. If your date is firm, tell us when booking and the order is flagged as no-later-than.

Changes are free up to 24 hours before delivery, subject to availability.

We do not deliver on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas. Holiday-weekend units are delivered the business day before.

Event prices include delivery and pickup in Summit County. 28-day rentals add a one-time $75 delivery and pickup charge on the first cycle.

The total we quote is unit, delivery and pickup, add-ons and Ohio sales tax. No fuel surcharge, card convenience fee or removal fee is added.

Unit prices are per unit. The delivery and pickup charge is per order, so extra units on the same trip do not add another delivery charge.

Long rentals bill per 28-day cycle because the cost is mostly truck trips and weekly service. An event rental of up to 4 days is cheaper for short needs.

28-day rentals renew each cycle until you call for pickup. You are never charged for a cycle after the day you call.

Call or text by the last business day of your current cycle, or give us a pickup date when you book.

Our listed starting prices stay the same all year. What changes in May and June is availability, so book early.

Every invoice lists the rental dates, unit types, delivery, add-ons and tax, and can show a job name or PO.

The technician pumps the tank, washes and disinfects the unit, adds fresh deodorizer, restocks paper and sanitizer, refills handwashing water and checks the door.

Each visit is logged with the date. Ask and we will text a photo after service.

Call or text and we will send a technician, billed as an extra visit. If it happens often, we will suggest a second unit or a twice-weekly plan.

Every unit is stocked with toilet paper at delivery and at each service. For big events, ask for extra rolls left in the unit.

Sanitizer is included in every standard, deluxe and accessible unit at no extra charge.

Event units arrive clean and stocked and usually do not need a visit for a weekend. Multi-day events can book a mid-event service.

We use a formaldehyde-free deodorizer and biodegradable cleaners. In winter the tank gets a salt brine so it does not freeze.

On firm, level ground within 25 feet of where the truck can park, away from food, and with the door facing away from the street or neighbors.

Only if the truck can park within 25 feet and a 48-inch gate or opening leads there. Otherwise the driveway or side yard works best.

Firm grass is fine. Soft or soaked lawns can rut, and the truck does not drive on grass.

A gentle slope can be leveled with shims. Steep slopes are unsafe; choose a flatter spot.

Nobody needs to be there. Mark the spot, unlock gates and keep your phone on.

Every unit has a hasp. Use your own padlock and leave a key or code for the service technician.

A unit on private property in Akron usually needs no permit. A unit on a street, curb lawn, sidewalk or park needs city or park approval.

A standard unit is stable in normal wind. In open fields we can stake units down. Tell us if the site is exposed.

Deluxe flushing units have a sink inside. Standard units have sanitizer, and handwashing stations can be added.

Deluxe flushing units have a foot-pump flush and an inside sink, and need no hookup.

We rent wheelchair-accessible units with a ground-level floor, a 60-inch turning space and grab bars.

Standard units use a translucent roof. Restroom trailers have built-in lighting. For night events, add a battery lantern.

We rent 2-stall and 3-stall restroom trailers with flushing toilets, sinks and climate control.

We do not rent units with changing tables. Parents often use the wheelchair-accessible unit because it has the most floor space.

Event units come from a separate part of the fleet that does not go to construction sites.

We do not rent holding tanks. Ask about RV and camper pump-outs; we quote them by location and access.

For 150 guests over 5–6 hours with a bar, plan 5 deluxe flushing units (4, plus 1 for alcohol), or a 2- to 3-stall restroom trailer.

Friday drop-off and Monday pickup, at no extra charge.

With the park's permission. City of Akron parks require a special event permit, and Summit Metro Parks has its own rules.

Keep units at least 50 feet from food and downwind, with a handwashing station beside them.

Church and school lots are among our most common event drops. Give us the lot entrance and any times buses or services block it.

Call or text when you are done. Pickup happens within 1–2 business days.

28-day rentals keep going automatically. Event rentals can add days if you call before the pickup date.

Cancel more than 24 hours before delivery for a full refund. Inside 24 hours, a $50 trip charge is kept. Once the truck leaves, the $50 trip charge and the $95 same-day fee are kept; the unit price is refunded.

Move the date for free when units are available, or cancel more than 24 hours ahead for a full refund.

Normal wear is on us. Vandalism, fire, vehicle damage or tipping are billed at repair or replacement cost.

Units stay on route all winter. From November to March the tank gets brine so it does not freeze.

The brine keeps the tank liquid well below freezing. Flushing units and handwashing stations can freeze, so we swap them for standard units in deep cold.

Keep a shoveled path to the door and a clear spot for the truck. A unit buried by a plow cannot be serviced.
