What the unit actually is
| Footprint | Approximately 44 in x 48 in floor area, 90 in tall |
|---|---|
| Tank | 60–70 gallon sealed waste tank |
| Capacity between services | Roughly 250–300 uses between services |
| Power required | None required |
| Water required | None required |
Those specifications matter more than they look. The footprint decides whether a unit fits a given placement at all, and the capacity between services decides whether the Florida minimum servicing frequency is genuinely adequate for your headcount or merely legal.

What moves the price
- How far into a storm cycle the request is made: pre-landfall placement costs less than post-landfall
- Whether roads to the site are passable for a service truck
- Number of occupants served, which sets the unit count
- Service frequency, which usually needs to exceed the weekly minimum in a displacement situation
- Duration, since restoration timelines after a Florida storm are rarely predictable
Where this service is covered
Emergency and Hurricane Porta Potty Rental is handled statewide from this page rather than through city pages. The requirements do not vary by municipality: the Florida rule that governs it is a state rule, and building near-identical city pages for it would add nothing a reader could use. Call (407) 537-0536 with your county and we will route it.
How to check any Florida operator before you book
We publish no reviews and no ratings, and we are not going to invent any. Here is what you can verify instead, in about five minutes, which tells you more than an anonymous score would.
- 1Ask which county health department issued their Form DH 4013 permit. Florida requires every portable restroom service company to hold one annually. A company that cannot name the issuing county is not one to use.
- 2Look at the service vehicle on delivery day. Florida requires permit information to be displayed prominently and permanently on it, so this is checkable without asking anyone anything.
- 3Get the servicing frequency in writing. Weekly is the Florida minimum at job sites and daily at special events. A quote that does not state frequency is not a complete quote.
- 4Ask what the delivery charge actually covers. Delivery, placement and collection are separate lines at some operators and bundled at others, which is why two quotes for the same job can look nothing alike.

What happens after you call
- You tell us the site type, how many people it serves, the dates, and the address or cross-street.
- We size the order against Florida Administrative Code 64E-6.0101 and, for job sites, OSHA Table D-1, and we tell you the number before anyone quotes you a price.
- We route the request to portable restroom companies permitted to service your county.
- The operator contacts you directly with a quote. We do not take payment and we do not add a margin to their price.
- You deal with the operator from that point. The rental agreement is with them.
