Rentals
Portable restrooms in Florida are regulated, and almost nobody in the industry publishes the regulations. These guides reproduce the requirements as written from Florida Administrative Code 64E-6.0101, OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 and the 2010 ADA Standards, and show what they mean on a real site.
In Florida the number is set by rule, not preference. For construction and remote sites, Table PR II of Florida Administrative Code 64E-6.0101 requires 1 unit for 1 to 10 people, 2 for 11 to 20, 3 for 21 to 30, then one more for every additional 10 people or fraction thereof. Events are sized by attendance and duration under Table PR I.

Portable restrooms in Florida are governed by Florida Administrative Code 64E-6.0101. It sets minimum unit counts for job sites and events, requires weekly servicing at job sites and daily servicing at events, sets a one-per-ten hand wash ratio, allows 50 percent setback relief, caps portable holding tanks at 300 gallons, and puts the permit obligation on the service company rather than on you.

OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51(c) requires construction employers to provide toilet facilities per Table D-1: one facility for 20 or fewer employees, one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers at 20 or more, and one per 50 workers at 200 or more. Mobile crews with transportation readily available to nearby facilities are exempt.

Under the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, where multiple single-user portable toilets are clustered at one location, at least 5 percent of the units at each cluster must be accessible and marked with the International Symbol of Accessibility. Where only one unit is provided, it must be accessible.

Florida Administrative Code 64E-6.0101 requires portable restrooms to be serviced at least weekly at construction and remote sites, and at least daily at special events. Those are legal minimums set to prevent insanitary conditions, not service levels chosen for comfort.

Human waste and the toilet paper provided. Nothing else. A portable restroom is a holding tank on a route, and its contents are pumped out and trucked to a publicly owned treatment works, where federal rule 40 CFR 403.5 sets national limits on what may be discharged.

A standard portable restroom occupies about 44 by 48 inches of ground, needs no power and no water, and holds roughly 250 to 300 uses on a 60 to 70 gallon tank. Everything else in the category is a variation on those four numbers: bigger footprint, added water, added power, or added capacity.

In almost every case, no. Florida does not require the renter to hold a permit for a portable restroom. Rule 64E-6.0101 places that obligation on the service company, which must hold an annual Form DH 4013 permit from the county health department where it keeps an office or storage yard.

For most Florida events under about 150 guests where budget leads, standard or deluxe porta potties are the right answer at roughly $150 to $400 per unit per weekend. A trailer is right when guest experience is a stated priority, the venue has a 110V circuit and a hose connection, and the budget carries $750 to $3,000.

For a 100 to 150 guest Florida wedding running five to six hours with alcohol, plan on 3 to 4 units, or one 2-station restroom trailer. Florida Table PR I sets the minimum by attendance and duration, at least one unit in every cluster must be accessible, and units must be serviced daily on a multi-day event.

Florida's hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. Portable restroom inventory across a Florida metro can be fully committed within hours of a landfall forecast and stays committed through restoration. Securing capacity before a named storm enters the cone costs standard rates. Securing it after landfall costs an expedited surcharge, if it is available at all.
