What does same-day porta potty delivery cost?
Same-day delivery uses the same unit price as a booked rental. When dispatch has to add a special run for you, a $75 same-day fee appears as its own line on your quote before you pay. If a truck is already headed your way, there is no extra fee.
See the full breakdown in the porta potty rental cost guide.
Who needs a porta potty the same day?
Most same-day rentals start with a problem that cannot wait: a rental that never showed, a plumbing or septic failure, a crew that just grew, an inspector asking for a jobsite toilet, or a party where the house bathroom backed up. Each situation needs the same three facts from you.
- Your other company didn't deliver. Give us the address and how many units, and we confirm a time on the call.
- Septic or well pump failed at home. A standard unit by the back door keeps the house usable while repairs happen. A long-term rental covers a few days or a few weeks.
- Jobsite inspection or new crew. A crew of 20 or fewer needs at least 1 toilet under OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51. See construction rentals.
- Event tomorrow, nothing booked. We can usually place event units the afternoon before.
What do I need ready for a same-day delivery?
Have three things ready when you call: the full address or a map pin, a level spot about 4 by 4 feet within 25 feet of where the truck can stop, and a phone number the driver can reach. Gate codes and notes about soft ground speed things up.
- Call (320) 205-2410 and give the address, unit type and how many.
- Approve the itemized total by text and pay by card.
- The driver calls about 30 minutes before arrival.
- The unit is set level, unlocked and stocked. You do not need to be there.
