How many porta potties do I need for my crew?
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers between 20 and 200, and one per 50 workers at 200 or more. If your Wixom project runs a three-shift operation, count all three shifts. A two-week framing job with 15 people needs one unit. A 50-person excavation crew needs at least two. How many porta potties do I need breaks down the math by scenario. On weekends, placement sometimes changes depending on site access. Call before you book a weekend rental and confirm the exact unit count with the general contractor or site supervisor.
What does delivery cost to Wixom from Novi?
A delivery to Wixom from Novi runs 50 to 150 dollars per week, or 100 to 500 dollars if you need the unit for a single day. Weekend delivery costs more. Roll-off dumpsters and restroom trailers add 100 to 540 dollars for delivery alone depending on how far into Wixom the site sits and whether the truck can access the location in a straight line. We need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the vehicle to drop a dumpster safely. If your address is deep in a residential neighborhood or on a narrow road, mention that when you call, we'll confirm the truck can reach you. Storage containers and temporary fencing cost less to deliver. See Restroom Trailer Rental Cost and Dumpster Rental Cost for the full range.
What are the permit rules for portable toilets in Wixom?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the Wixom city office. We don't have the current ordinance text, so check with them directly before you finalize a site plan. Most construction sites place units on private property behind the fence line, which avoids the issue entirely. If your job is a road closure, a street festival or a large parking-lot event in Wixom, the city will almost certainly require a permit. Novi has its own rules too, so if your crew spans both cities or you're shuttling equipment between them, ask about both jurisdictions. Porta Potty Permit Requirements walks through the process for common scenarios. Events near schools or hospitals sometimes face extra scrutiny. Get your permit paperwork started early.
What's the difference between standard and deluxe units?
A standard portable toilet is a single-occupancy fiberglass box about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and 92 inches tall. It has a pedal-flush valve, a seat, a urinal and a small mirror. A deluxe unit adds an automatic soap dispenser, hand sanitizer, a ventilation fan and higher-grade seating. Deluxe models run 85 to 1,200 dollars per day compared to 100 to 350 dollars for standard. Standard Porta Potty Rental and Deluxe Flushable Porta Potty show what each includes. For crews that care about morale, deluxe pays for itself. For a four-week project, the difference adds up fast. ADA-accessible units are wider, with a 60-inch turning circle and a 32-inch door, and cost 200 to 400 dollars per day. If any crew member uses a wheelchair or has mobility limits, ADA Accessible Porta Potty is the only legal choice under the ADA Standards section 213.2.
Do you service Wixom on weekends?
Yes. Weekend delivery and pickup run higher than weekday rates. A standard unit on Saturday or Sunday costs 125 to 400 dollars. A deluxe unit is 199 to 300 dollars. If your event or emergency happens Friday night through Sunday, we can usually help. Call early, emergency weekend service fills fast in summer. Emergency Porta Potty Rental lists our contact info.
How often do crews need the unit pumped?
Weekly service is the baseline. One service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40-hour work week follows the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 industry standard. Larger crews or events need pumping two or three times a week. We charge 30 to 220 dollars per service visit during the week, and 400 to 1,200 dollars on weekends. If your job is in Novi or Wixom and runs longer than a month, Monthly Porta Potty Rental may offer better pricing. A restroom trailer with multiple stalls spreads the use and can stretch service intervals if you have the budget.
FAQ
How long does a Wixom delivery take?
Delivery from Novi to Wixom usually takes under 12 minutes one way. We aim to place the unit within a two-hour window on the confirmed day. Same-day delivery works if you call before 10 a.m. and the unit is in stock. Check Service Areas to confirm we cover your exact address.
Can I rent a restroom trailer instead of a portable toilet?

Restroom Trailer Rental shows the options. Trailers are best for events with 50 or more people or for office job sites where staff want comfort.
What if I need a dumpster and toilets at the same Wixom location?
We rent both. A roll-off dumpster runs 426 to 778 dollars per week for 10, 20 or 30 yards. Bundle a standard portable toilet and a dumpster for a modest discount on service. Call for a combined quote. See Construction Dumpster Rental for details on what goes inside.

Soap and towels or a hand drying device satisfy the rule under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2). A portable handwashing station with foot pedal, soap dispenser and paper towel runs 50 to 150 dollars per day or 100 to 300 dollars per month. See Handwashing Station Rental for what's included.
