Porta potty rentals · First Coast
Porta Potty Rental: Jacksonville, FL
Standard units, flushing deluxes, ADA units, hand-wash stations and restroom trailers, delivered across Duval, Clay, St. Johns, Nassau and Baker counties. Tell us the job and one flat figure comes back while you are still on the line.
Who we turn up for
Three jobs, one phone call
Most of what we do falls into three shapes. Whichever one yours is, the conversation is the same: what is the job, how long is it standing, and what does the last hundred feet look like.
Crews on a build site
Contractors working a slab pour off Philips Highway, a warehouse shell out at Cecil, or a two-year vertical job downtown. Units land where the crew actually is, and the service schedule is set before the first one is dropped.
Anyone drawing a crowd
Riverwalk festivals, a wedding on the Talbot Islands, a car show in a Town Center parking field. The unit count comes off the headcount and the run time, and the ADA placement gets decided before the trucks roll, not after.
Sites that need one standing
A yard, a boat ramp, a park restoration, a trailhead. One unit that stays put on a scheduled route, pumped and restocked on a rhythm you do not have to chase.
The five units
What you can put on the ground
Five units cover almost everything. The trailer is the outlier; the other four get mixed and matched to suit the crowd and the ground.
Standard
Dropped where the crew is, emptied on a schedule, gone when the job is.

The job book
Six kinds of job, six different answers
A slab pour and a wedding both need a restroom, and almost nothing else about them is the same. Each of these has its own count, its own placement and its own service rhythm.
Jacksonville unit ratios
Jacksonville jobs and parties: how many porta potties to order?
Working crews
Set out one toilet until the crew passes twenty, then give a larger Jacksonville crew one urinal and one toilet seat for every 40, per 29 CFR 1926.51.
Backyard and block parties
Figure roughly one-to-a-hundred over four hours, a 1:100 ratio that covers a backyard party or a neighborhood block party in Jacksonville.
Bars and long days
Go above that ratio with a bar or an all-day schedule; beach weddings and music festivals need extra units beyond the base.
One wash station per three
Make ADA units at least 5% of a group, one or more in every setup, and plan a hand-wash station for every three units. That's a sound porta potty rental layout.
Where we deliver
From the Northbank out to the Atlantic
Grouped the way a truck actually runs it - which bridge it crosses, which county issues the permit, and how far past the last traffic light the site sits.
Urban Core & the Northbank
Downtown, the historic core and the neighborhoods north of the river
Westside
Out along Normandy, 103rd and Beaver Street to the county line
Southside & the Beaches
The Southside corridor and the three beach cities
Clay County
Orange Park, Fleming Island and south down US 17
St. Johns County
Across Julington Creek and out to the ocean
Nassau & Baker Counties
North to the Georgia line and west along I-10
First Coast field notes
Jacksonville is big, so plan the drop
Largest city by land
Jacksonville covers more land than any other city in the lower 48. A drop from the Westside to the Beaches is a long haul, so book a day ahead when you can.
Bridges over the St. Johns
Crossing the Fuller Warren, Mathews or Dames Point at rush hour slows any delivery. Delivery windows are planned around river crossings.
Base and port work
Projects at NAS Jacksonville, Mayport or the port terminals often require gate access lists. Send names and escort details before the delivery day.
Afternoon storms and hurricanes
Summer brings daily lightning and heavy rain, and storm season runs through November. Units go on firm ground and are strapped or pulled before a hurricane.

Before you call
The questions that come up first
Most standard drops across Duval, Clay and St. Johns go out next day, and same-day is often possible on a morning call. The honest limits are geography and access: Macclenny out on I-10 and Hilliard up near the Georgia line are the far ends of a route and usually get slotted first or last in a day, and a gated resort or a guarded community on the beaches side needs vendor clearance arranged before a truck leaves.
For a working crew the rule of thumb is one unit per ten workers on a forty-hour week, with a bump if the crew is running six days. For events it runs off headcount and hours - roughly one per hundred guests over four hours, more if there is a bar, plus a hand-wash station for every three units. The Unit Finder walks the numbers and shows the answer as units rather than a bare figure.
If the public can reach it, plan on one. An ADA unit is ground level with a full-width ribbed door, interior grab bars and enough floor to turn a wheelchair, and it needs a firm level pad and a clear approach - not the end of a sand track. On a permitted event a reviewer will look for it, and on a public-facing job site it is the difference between a pass and a callback.
A pump-out, a fresh charge of deodoriser, restocked paper and a wipe-down of the touch surfaces. Weekly is standard. Heavy use, a hot week in July or a crew running Saturdays all push that to twice a week, and it is cheaper to book the extra service than to deal with the unit going over.
Grass and gravel are fine if the ground is firm and reasonably level. Soft sand is where it goes wrong, and around here that means dune crossovers at the beaches, the Black Creek floodplain in Middleburg, the unpaved Palmetto Avenue run out to Fort George Island, and fresh builder pads at Wildlight or Nocatee after rain. Tell us what the last hundred feet looks like and the truck comes prepared.
A standard unit on a weekly service cycle is the base, and the number moves with the unit type, how long it stands, how far the truck runs and how often it is serviced. Everything is quoted flat on the phone before anything is booked - the figure you are given is the figure on the invoice.
