Three example estimates show how the approved starting prices add up: about $450 for a 75-guest backyard party, about $200–$290 plus delivery for a 3-week roofing job, and about $1,955 for a wedding with a restroom trailer. Each example estimate is before tax. Your ZIP and dates set the real quote.

Example estimate 1: backyard party, 75 guests, 4 hours

1. Count the units. 75 guests × 4 hours ÷ 200 = 1.5, so round up to 2 standard units. Our porta potty calculator does this math for you.
2. Price the units. 2 × from about $225 = from about $450, with delivery and pickup included in Beaufort County.
3. Add what fits. Serving food? A hand wash station costs less than $225 when added to the toilet order. Serving beer? Add 1 unit, about $225 more.

Example estimate 2: 6-person roofing crew, 3 weeks

1. Count the units. OSHA Table D-1 calls for 1 toilet for 20 or fewer workers, so 6 roofers need 1 standard unit.
2. Price the cycle. 3 weeks fits inside one 28-day cycle: about $200–$290 with weekly service, plus a one-time delivery and pickup fee set by distance.
3. Watch the rush fee. Need the unit today on a full-route day? Add about $75. Booking a day ahead avoids that fee.

Example estimate 3: wedding, 120 guests, 5 hours, bar

1. Count the toilets. 120 × 5 ÷ 200 = 3, plus 1 for the bar = 4 toilets. In this example we plan each trailer stall like one toilet.
2. Pick the setup. A 3-stall restroom trailer from about $1,650 plus one ADA-style unit from about $305 for guests who can't climb trailer steps.
3. Total it. From about $1,955 before tax. The trailer needs a 110V/20-amp outlet and a garden hose nearby.

Six things push a porta potty rental price up: distance from our Beaufort yard, same-day rush delivery, upgraded units, extra service visits, more units, and long rentals billed in full 28-day cycles. Distance matters most outside the Lowcountry. A Columbia or Greenville delivery costs more than a Port Royal delivery because the truck drives hours each way.

• Distance. Beaufort County is the low end. Charleston, the Midlands and the Upstate get a higher delivery fee quoted by ZIP.
• Rush timing. A same-day fee of about $75 may apply on full-route days. We tell you before you book.
• Unit type. An ADA-style unit starts about $80 above a standard unit; a deluxe flushing unit about $150 above.
• Service. Big crews, summer heat and multi-day events may need extra pump-outs.
• Timing of pickup. Keeping a monthly unit a few days into a new cycle starts a full new 28-day charge.
• Damage. Tipped, burned or tagged units are billed; normal use is not.

The lowest porta potty rental price comes from five habits: book a day ahead, pick the right count, add a hand wash station to the toilet order, mark an easy spot near the truck, and call for pickup before the next 28-day cycle starts. Booking a day ahead alone can save the $75 rush fee.

1. Book a day ahead. The same-day rush fee of about $75 only applies to rush runs on full-route days.
2. Order the right count. Too few units means extra service later; too many means rent you don't need.
3. Bundle the sink. A hand wash station costs less added to a toilet order than the from about $225 standalone price.
4. Mark a truck-friendly spot. Firm, level ground within about 25 feet of where the truck parks. Nobody has to be home if the spot is marked.
5. Time the pickup. Call before the 28-day cycle renews. The cycle is not prorated.
