Paducah Porta Potty Company delivers portable restrooms across Paducah and McCracken County for events, job sites, and everything in between. The service covers the full cycle: delivery, placement, routine servicing, and final pickup. Whether you need a single unit for a backyard party or a multi-unit setup for a long-running construction project, the process starts with one phone call. Call for a quote and we will walk through what you need before anything is scheduled.
Renting portable restrooms shouldn't be complicated. The two most common situations we handle are short-term events and long-term job-site placements. On the event side, that means backyard parties, outdoor weddings, festivals, concerts, sporting events, and farmers markets. On the construction side, that means work sites that need units placed for weeks or months, serviced on a regular schedule, and kept clean through the work week.
The delivery-and-service cycle is the same for both. Units go out, get placed where you need them, and we return on a regular schedule to pump out, clean, sanitize, deodorize, and restock. How many units you need depends on your guest count or crew size. We cover sizing guidance further down the page, and we are always glad to work through the numbers on the call.
The right unit depends on the job. Here is a look at everything available, from the standard workhorse to specialty construction units and upscale restroom trailers.
A busy job site needs restrooms that stay clean and stocked, and the standard portable restroom is built for exactly that. It includes a non-flush toilet, urinal, toilet paper, and ventilation. This is the workhorse unit for construction crews, work sites, and general outdoor events where function matters more than frills. Getting started is one phone call away.
Same footprint as the standard unit, with a hand-washing sink built inside the stall. A practical choice for events where placing a separate hand-wash station nearby is not convenient. It keeps hygiene covered without adding another piece of equipment to coordinate.
When you need restrooms on site fast and the event calls for something more comfortable, the deluxe flushable unit steps up. It includes a foot-pump flush, a fresh-water sink, and a mirror. This is the go-to unit for weddings, upscale outdoor parties, and corporate gatherings where guests expect more than a basic stall.
Ground-level entry, a wide interior, and grab bars make this unit the right call for any public event and most private gatherings. ADA-accessible units are required at most public events in Kentucky and are a straightforward addition to any order. We treat your event and job site with care, and that includes making sure accessibility is covered.
Multi-story and high-rise job sites have needs a standard ground placement cannot meet. Rolling units move between floors. Elevator-fit units are sized to ride the construction elevator. Crane-hoistable units lift to elevated work decks. If your site goes vertical, these units keep sanitation accessible at every level.
Restroom trailers range from compact two-station units up to large multi-station configurations. Upscale and wedding-grade trailers include running water, climate control, and interior lighting. They work well for weddings, corporate events, festivals, and long-term site use where a standard portable unit would not meet the occasion.
For events and sites that need trailer-level comfort with full ADA compliance, the ADA-accessible restroom trailer delivers. It features a lowering chassis, ramp entry, and accessible stalls. A strong option when you need both the amenities of a trailer and the accessibility of a ground-level unit.
Standalone shower trailers and combination units that pair shower stalls with restroom facilities. These are well suited for work sites with extended crews, disaster-relief staging, multi-day festivals, and remote locations where workers or attendees need more than restroom access. That's the whole process, start to pickup.
Portable hand-wash stations are a standard addition alongside any unit order. Sanitizer stations work well where running water is not available. Both options are easy to add to an event or job-site order, and both contribute to keeping a site clean between service visits.
For sites with no sewer connection, holding tanks extend the waste capacity of placed units. Spill-containment trays protect the ground surface beneath the units. These are practical additions for remote or off-grid placements where site conditions require extra planning.
We know plans can change, and we coordinate placement with you from the start. Delivery covers positioning the unit where you need it, confirming access, and leaving it ready to use. We work with you on placement to make sure the unit is accessible for both users and for servicing visits. Weekend delivery is available, and pickup is scheduled when the rental period ends. Pick up the phone and we will handle the details.
Routine servicing includes pump-out, interior cleaning, sanitizing, deodorizing, and restocking paper and soap. For most placements, servicing runs about twice a week. High-traffic sites and events with heavy use get more frequent visits. Units, servicing and pickup are planned around how long the site runs. Long-term construction rentals follow a set service schedule so the site stays in compliance with OSHA sanitation requirements throughout the project.
Paducah hosts a wide range of outdoor events through the year, from backyard parties and outdoor weddings to festivals, concerts, races, marathons, farmers markets, fairs, and sporting events. The right unit mix for any of those depends on guest count, event length, and whether alcohol is being served.
A wedding with 150 guests has different needs than a two-day festival with rotating crowds. We offer honest advice on how many units you need and which types make sense for the occasion. The sizing section below gives a useful starting point, and a call gets you a recommendation built around your specific event.
If you've never rented portable restrooms before for a job site, the process is straightforward. We place units where the crew needs them, service them on a regular schedule, and keep them clean through the work week. OSHA's sanitation standards under 29 CFR 1926.51 set the baseline for how many units a site requires, and we can help you work through that count on the call.
For multi-story sites, rolling units, elevator-fit units, and crane-hoistable units are available to keep sanitation accessible at every level of the build. Straight answers on unit counts and pricing are part of every conversation, whether you are managing a small residential project or a large commercial site in McCracken County.
Sizing depends on the situation. Here are the published rules of thumb we use as a starting point.

For construction and job sites:
These figures follow OSHA's sanitation guidance for construction sites and give you a solid baseline. They are a starting point, not a firm quote. Call and ask. Get a straight answer on units and dates. That is how we work.
We deliver across Paducah and throughout the surrounding region. Nearby communities we regularly serve include Lone Oak, Reidland, Kevil, La Center, Benton, Calvert City, and Murray. Rural, remote, and off-grid sites are covered as well. If your site is outside city limits or on a property without utilities, we have the equipment and the planning to make it work. Call to confirm coverage at your address.
Last-minute needs come up. A planned vendor cancels, an event grows larger than expected, or an emergency-response staging area needs sanitation in place quickly. Ask about short-notice delivery and we will check what the schedule allows. Ask what is open when you call and we will tell you exactly what we can do. Order the units. Ask which days are open. Picked up when you're done.
Porta potty rental pricing depends on unit type, the number of units, rental duration, and how often servicing is needed. There is no rate confirmed until the job is scoped on the call. When you call, you get a clear price before anything is scheduled, and you can ask what it covers. We offer a free quote on every order, whether you need one unit for a weekend or a dozen units for a multi-month job site.
Restroom trailer rentals are priced separately from standard units, and specialty construction units carry their own rates. The call is the place to work through all of it.
The waste tank is pumped out, the interior surfaces are cleaned and sanitized, the unit is deodorized, and toilet paper and soap are restocked. The visit covers everything needed to keep the unit in clean, usable condition between service days. High-traffic sites get more frequent visits on a schedule set at booking.
Yes. Every unit is stocked before delivery and restocked at each servicing visit. You do not need to supply consumables yourself at any point during the rental.
Hand-sanitizer stations work well where running water is not available nearby, such as at remote job sites, outdoor markets, or large festival grounds where guests need a quick hygiene option between restroom visits. They are easy to add to any order and help reduce crowding at the restroom units themselves.
Hand-wash stations with running water are the better choice for food-service events, catering setups, and any situation where hand hygiene standards require actual washing rather than a sanitizer alternative. Farmers markets, outdoor food festivals, and catered events in the Paducah area are common use cases. Ask about adding them when you call.
Most restroom trailers require access to a water source and a power connection to run climate control, lighting, and the sink. Confirm the hookup requirements for the specific trailer you are renting when you call, and let us know what is available at your site so we can plan placement accordingly.
Some trailer configurations can operate in a more self-contained mode, but the amenities that make a trailer worth renting, including running water, climate control, and lighting, typically depend on hookups. Ask about the specific trailer options and what each one requires when you call.
A wedding-grade restroom trailer includes running water, climate control, interior lighting, and finished interiors that look nothing like a standard portable unit. For outdoor weddings where the restroom experience is part of the overall impression, a trailer keeps the presentation consistent with the rest of the event. They are available in configurations suited to both small and large guest counts.
The standard starting point is one unit per 50 guests for an event lasting up to about four hours. For events that run longer, you need more units to account for the additional use over time. Alcohol service also increases demand, so plan to add roughly 10 to 20 percent more units when drinks are being served.
OSHA's sanitation standard at 29 CFR 1926.51 sets the baseline. One toilet covers up to 20 workers. Above that, plan on one toilet and one urinal per 40 workers up to 200 workers, and one toilet and one urinal per 50 workers beyond that. These figures are a starting point, and we work through the exact count with you on the call.
Holding tanks extend waste storage capacity on sites with no sewer connection, such as rural properties, remote work camps, and off-grid locations in McCracken County and the surrounding area. They collect waste from placed units and hold it until it is removed during a servicing visit. If your site has no utility connections, ask about holding tanks when you call.
Spill-containment trays sit beneath portable restroom units to protect the ground surface in case of a leak or overflow. They are a practical addition on environmentally sensitive sites, regulated job sites, and any placement where ground protection is a concern. Ask about adding them to your order if your site requires it.

How many portable restrooms do I need for an outdoor event?
A reliable starting point is one restroom per 50 guests for an event lasting up to about four hours. Longer events need more units to account for the additional use over time. When alcohol is being served, add roughly 10 to 20 percent more units than the base count. Every order should include at least one ADA-accessible unit, and for larger events, plan on approximately one ADA unit for every 20 units total. These figures give you a solid baseline, but a call gets you a count built around your specific guest list, event length, and layout.
What is the difference between a standard portable restroom and a deluxe flushable unit?
A standard portable restroom includes a non-flush toilet, urinal, toilet paper, and ventilation. It is the right call for construction sites and general outdoor events where function is the priority. The deluxe flushable unit adds a foot-pump flush mechanism, a fresh-water sink, and a mirror. It is a step up in comfort and presentation, which makes it the better fit for weddings, corporate gatherings, and upscale parties where guests expect more than a basic stall.
How often are units serviced, and what does a servicing visit include?
For most placements, servicing runs about twice a week. High-traffic sites and events with heavy use get more frequent visits on a schedule set at booking. Each visit covers pumping out the waste tank, cleaning and sanitizing the interior, deodorizing, and restocking toilet paper and soap. The unit is left clean and ready to use after every visit.
Honest Advice on How Many Units You Need
We give you a straight count based on your guest list, crew size, and how long the site runs. No upselling, no guesswork.
Is servicing included in the rental price?
Routine servicing is part of the rental arrangement for long-term placements such as construction sites. The frequency and pricing are confirmed when you call and scope the job. For short-term event rentals, the unit typically goes out clean and fully stocked, with servicing added to the order if the event runs long enough to need it. Ask about what is included when you call and we will walk through the details.
What is the standard rental period, and how do extensions work?
Rental periods vary depending on the job. Event rentals are typically short-term, covering the event day or weekend. Construction and job-site rentals run week to week or month to month depending on the project timeline. If your project or event runs longer than originally planned, call us and we will adjust the schedule. Extensions are handled on the call, and pickup is rescheduled to match the new end date.
What surface can a portable restroom be placed on, and does it need to be level?
Units can be placed on grass, gravel, packed dirt, or sidewalk. The placement area should be reasonably level so the unit sits stable and the door opens and closes properly. If the surface has a significant slope, let us know when you call so we can plan accordingly. For restroom trailers, a flat and firm surface is especially important given the size and weight of the unit.
Clean and Freshly Serviced Units
Every unit goes out clean and fully stocked, and each service visit covers pump-out, sanitizing, deodorizing, and restocking so the unit stays in good condition through the rental.
Do I need to be on site when the unit is delivered or picked up?
You do not need to be present for delivery or pickup as long as we have clear instructions on where to place the unit and unobstructed access to the site. If there are gates, access codes, or specific placement requirements, share those details when you book. The more information we have ahead of time, the smoother the delivery goes.
Do I need a permit to place a portable restroom on public property?
Permit requirements depend on whether the unit is placed on private property or in a public right of way, and the rules differ between the City of Paducah and McCracken County. We confirm what applies at your address before delivery. If a permit is needed, knowing that early gives you time to handle it before the delivery date.
How do portable restrooms hold up in hot weather, and how do you keep them from getting too warm or odorous?
Heat accelerates odor buildup, so servicing frequency matters more in summer months. Units are deodorized at every service visit, and the ventilation panel helps with airflow. Placing units in a shaded spot where possible also helps keep the interior temperature down. If your event or site is running through a stretch of hot weather in Paducah, ask about adjusting the service schedule to match the conditions.

Call and get a clear price before anything is scheduled. We walk through unit types, counts, and service frequency so you know exactly what you are getting.
Can portable restrooms be used in cold weather and winter conditions?
Yes. Standard portable restrooms are used on job sites year-round, including through Kentucky winters. The waste tank includes antifreeze as part of the servicing process during cold weather to prevent freezing. Restroom trailers with running water require more attention in freezing temperatures, and we plan placement and servicing accordingly. Let us know your timeline and we will make sure the units are set up for the season.
Can I add more units to my order after the initial booking?
Yes. If your guest count grows or your crew size increases after you book, call us and we will work out what is available and when it can be delivered. Adding units is easier when there is lead time, but we take short-notice requests when the schedule allows. It is always better to call early rather than wait until the day of the event or the start of the work week.
What happens to the waste after a unit is pumped out?
Waste is transported and disposed of at a licensed waste-treatment facility. The process follows applicable regulations for portable sanitation waste. You do not need to do anything with the waste yourself at any point during the rental.
