How much does a porta potty rental cost in Burbank?
Most people asking about porta potty rental cost want one number, and the honest answer to how much does portable toilet rental cost for a single standard porta potty rental sits near 150 dollars a day. Weekend and weekly rates land higher because a longer hold means more time and a service stop, and rent porta potty prices always move with duration. If you want a monthly porta potty rental, expect a routine visit built into the price under the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 standard, which sets one service visit a week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Burbank Porta Pros quotes the unit, delivery and service as separate lines so you see where every dollar goes. Prefer a walkthrough of daily math? The per day pricing page breaks it down further.

What does the full price table look like?
Here are the rental bands by unit and duration. Delivery, service and pickup are listed separately, the way you will see them on a real invoice from Burbank Porta Pros.
| Item | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard unit | 100-350 | 130-500 | 125-325 |
| Deluxe flushable | 85-1200 | 150-290 | by quote |
| ADA accessible | 200-400 | 120-240 | by quote |
| Restroom trailer | 175-2500 | 150-1650 | by quote |
| Delivery fee | 100-500 | 50-150 | 120-420 |
| Service fee | 100-300 | 30-220 | 100-300 |
Weekend rates run outside this table. A standard unit on a weekend lands near 250 dollars, an ADA unit near 240, and a restroom trailer between 900 and 3000 depending on size. See the dumpster rental cost page if you are pricing waste too.
Why do porta potty rental costs vary so much?
Two quotes for the same weekend can differ, and the reasons are simple. Unit type is the biggest lever: a deluxe flushable unit carries a flushing bowl and a hand pump, so its portable toilet rental cost runs above a basic portable toilet rental. A standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank that sets how long it lasts between visits. Distance matters too. Burbank sits 10.5 miles from Alhambra and 7.8 miles from West Hollywood, and a longer haul lifts the delivery line. Rental length, the number of units, and event versus construction use all move the figure. A single emergency porta potty rental on short notice prices differently than a planned construction site order. Ask for the checklist before you book.
What moves the number up or down?
The fastest way to control cost is matching the unit to the job. A backyard home renovation rarely needs more than one porta john rental, while a festival needs a bank of them, and the price for portable toilet rental follows that count. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets construction ratios: one facility for up to 20 workers, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers as crews grow past 20. Undercount and you fail an inspection; overcount and you pay for units nobody uses. Our how many porta potties do I need guide walks the math. Service frequency is the other lever. High-traffic sites need extra visits, and each visit is a line on the bill. Placement affects it as well, since a unit set far from a truck path or on soft ground takes longer to drop. The placement guide and the OSHA requirements page explain both. Handwashing rules add cost when they apply, so check handwashing requirements early.
What does a fair quote include?
A fair quote from Burbank Porta Pros names four things: the unit, the delivery fee, the service schedule, and the pickup. If any of those is missing, ask. Delivery and pickup are real costs, not padding, and a roll-off truck for a dumpster needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind it, which is why access shapes the fee. For restrooms, a portable restroom rental quote should state the service interval so you know when the tank gets emptied, and the portable restrooms rental cost lands where that schedule sits. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities must carry soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy that, so a portable sink rental or handwashing station may belong on the quote. Taxes and any permit costs should be visible, not buried. If placement in the public right of way is on the table, that needs confirming with the City of Burbank first. See permit requirements for what we can and cannot state.
What do three real scenarios cost?
Numbers land better with examples, so here are three built from the bands above.
A weekend backyard wedding with one deluxe flushable unit and one handwashing station: the deluxe weekend rate plus a delivery fee near 200 dollars and one service stop, a common shape when you rent a portable restroom for a single day. Plan the mix on the wedding restroom page.
A month-long home renovation with one standard unit: a monthly rate near 200 dollars, weekly service under the Z4.3 baseline, plus delivery and pickup. That is the classic monthly rental shape.
A 40-worker construction site: OSHA 1926.51(c) puts you at one seat and one urinal per 40 workers, so a couple of standard units plus a portable sink. Price it through construction site services with a dumpster added. Compare against a restroom trailer cost if the crew grows.
Are trailers and ADA units priced differently?
Yes, and by a lot. A restroom trailer rental is a different product than a single stall, so its day rate runs from the low hundreds into the thousands depending on stall count. A 2 stall trailer sits at the bottom of that spread, an 8 stall trailer at the top, with the 4 stall between them. ADA units carry their own band because they meet ADA Standards 213.2, which requires at least 5 percent of clustered units, and never fewer than one, to be accessible. That unit also needs a 60 inch turning circle under ADA 304.3.1 and a 32 inch clear door under ADA 404.2.3. Those specs cost money to build and maintain. If your event in Burbank draws a crowd, read ADA restroom requirements and the event restroom page before you settle a budget. A shower trailer prices separately again.
When should you book to get the best price?
Book early. Peak weekends in Burbank fill fast, and a short-notice order pays the weekend premium plus a rushed delivery. Standard construction and renovation jobs give the most flexibility, since a standard unit on a monthly plan spreads the delivery cost across weeks. Events are tighter. A festival or concert needs its full count locked in advance, and a marathon or golf tournament has fixed dates you cannot slide. If you are 10.5 miles out in Alhambra or 27.9 miles east in Culver City, the delivery leg is longer, so booking ahead lets us route it efficiently. Serving West Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Monterey Park too. Check the full service areas list, then send a quote request.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a porta potty cost for one day?
When people ask how much portable toilet rental sets them back for one day, a standard single-day unit runs 100 to 350 dollars in Burbank, with 150 being typical, before delivery and pickup. A deluxe flushable unit costs more. See the per day breakdown for the full daily math and what the delivery fee adds.
Is delivery included in the rental price?
No. Delivery is billed as its own line, from 50 to 150 dollars on a weekly rental and higher for weekends or long hauls. Burbank Porta Pros lists it separately so nothing hides in the base rate. Pickup is billed the same clear way.
How much is a porta potty for a weekend event?
A standard unit for a weekend lands near 250 dollars, and an ADA unit near 240, plus delivery and one service stop. For a bigger crowd, price a restroom trailer instead. The event restroom page helps you size the order.
Does a monthly rental cost less per day than a daily one?
Per day, yes. A monthly standard rental near 200 dollars spreads delivery and service across weeks, so the daily cost drops well below a one-day rate. That is why renovations and construction jobs almost always book monthly through construction site services.
Why is an ADA porta potty more expensive?
An ADA unit meets ADA Standards 213.2 and needs a 60 inch turning circle under ADA 304.3.1 and a 32 inch clear door under ADA 404.2.3. That extra build and footprint carries a higher band, 200 to 400 dollars a day. Read ADA restroom requirements for the full spec.
How many units will I need and what will that cost?
Count drives cost. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets one facility for up to 20 workers, then one seat and one urinal per 40 as crews grow, and portable toilet rental costs scale with that. Many crews rent a porta john per zone and price port o potties for rent by the week. Our how many porta potties do I need guide sizes it, then a quote prices the exact mix.
Do you rent other equipment alongside porta potties?
Yes. Burbank Porta Pros also handles roll-off dumpsters, storage containers, temporary fence, septic pumping and handwashing stations. Bundling a job onto one delivery run often trims the combined fee. Start on the home page or send a contact message.
