A construction crew in Akron needs at least 1 toilet on site for every 20 workers, per OSHA 1926.51(c). Akron Porta Pros builds the rest of the site around that number: dumpsters, fencing, handwash stations and temporary power, delivered on one schedule so the general contractor isn't juggling five vendors.
Start with restrooms, because that's the OSHA line item that gets checked first. Construction portable toilet rental covers the toilet count under 1926.51(c): one unit per 20 workers up to 20, then a toilet seat and urinal per 40 workers as headcount climbs, per 50 once you pass 200 people on site. Beyond that, most Akron job sites need a roll-off dumpster for debris, a stretch of temporary fencing around the perimeter, and a handwashing station near the break area. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at every workplace, and that pairs with the handwash unit, not the toilet. If crews are spraying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, 1926.51(f)(1) kicks in separately and calls for washing facilities beyond the general sanitation minimum. Larger sites sometimes add a storage container for tools or a mobile office trailer for the super. We deliver all of it together, one truck route, one invoice.
Pricing depends on unit type and how long the job runs. A standard porta potty is the workhorse for framing crews and road jobs; an ADA accessible unit is required if the crew or public includes someone who needs one, per ADA Standards 213.2, which calls for at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units to be accessible, never fewer than one.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| standard | $100 - $350 | $130 - $500 | $125 - $325 |
| ada | $200 - $400 | $240 - $500 | - |
| deluxe | $85 - $1200 | $150 - $290 | - |
Delivery runs $100 to $500 for short jobs, or a flat monthly delivery fee of $120 to $420 for a rental that sits on site for the duration. Check the full breakdown on porta potty rental cost or the monthly rental page if the job runs past 30 days. For day-rate math on a short punch-list job, see porta potty rental per day.
Count your peak crew size, then apply 1926.51(c): one unit per 20 workers or fewer, one toilet seat and urinal per 40 from 20 up, one per 50 once you're at 200 or more. A 35-person framing crew needs two units under that math. Run the exact numbers on how many porta potties do I need, and read the full ratio table on OSHA portable toilet requirements. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets the baseline service interval at once a week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week; a busy Akron site with 30 or 40 trades on it needs more frequent pumping than that, and we schedule around headcount, not a fixed calendar. If you're running a crew near Barberton, 8.2 miles southwest of Akron, or out toward Green, 10.8 miles south, the same ratios apply, and delivery timing depends on drive distance from our yard. For companies asking about construction portable toilet rental near Texas or California job sites, the OSHA ratio in 1926.51(c) is a federal construction standard, so it applies the same way in Akron as it does under Cal/OSHA's construction sanitation rules on the west coast; the numbers don't change by state, only the local delivery logistics do.
Placement in the public right of way, like a dumpster or fence line that touches a sidewalk or street, needs confirming with the City of Akron before delivery; we do not have current fee or ordinance detail to quote here, so ask your Akron Porta Pros rep to check with the city on your specific address before the truck rolls. Once placement is cleared, a 10 yard, 20 yard, or 30 yard dumpster sits on site for the job's duration, and a roll-off delivery needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck to drop and pull the box safely. Fencing runs $30 to $75 a day depending on footage; see temporary fence cost for a full breakdown, or chain link temporary fence if you need a standard perimeter spec. Weight limits and banned materials matter too: check dumpster weight limits and what cannot go in a dumpster before the crew starts loading. For sites needing a general dumpster overview first, start at roll-off dumpster rental or the broader construction dumpster rental page.
Yes. 1926.51(c) sets it by headcount: one unit per 20 workers or fewer, then a toilet seat and urinal per 40 workers from 20 up, and per 50 once the site hits 200 or more people. Multi-trade Akron sites with fluctuating headcounts should recalculate at each phase.
A standard unit runs about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and 92 inches tall, built for general crew use. An ADA unit adds clear floor space and a 60 inch turning circle per ADA Standards 304.3.1, needed whenever workers or visitors require accessible access.
Yes, if the toilets don't include a sink. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at washing facilities; hand sanitizer alone doesn't satisfy that. Pair a portable sink with your toilet order for full compliance.
Book as soon as you have a start date and headcount. Standard units and dumpsters move fast during peak building season, and delivery fee bands shift with lead time. Sites near Cuyahoga Falls, 9.0 miles north of Akron, or Tallmadge, 6.5 miles east, follow the same lead-time logic.
Yes. A restroom trailer works for supervisor trailers or long-term crews wanting flush fixtures and climate control. Day rates start at $175 and climb with trailer size; see restroom trailer rental cost for the full range across 2, 4, and 8 stall models.
Yes. Akron Porta Pros delivers construction site services across Akron and the surrounding metro, with same-day and next-day drop-off available on most orders.
