"Porta john" is just another name for a standard portable toilet, and Fort Myers Porta Pros rents them by the day, week or month, with weekly rates starting around $130. Whether it's a backyard remodel or a 200-person block party, the unit itself is the same 60 to 70 gallon tank you'd get anywhere.
A porta john rental from Fort Myers Porta Pros is a standard unit, about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and roughly 92 inches tall, delivered, set up and picked up when you're done. That's the same footprint you'll see on our standard porta potty rental page, and it's the workhorse for construction site services across Fort Myers. Pricing runs from a single-day rate up through a full month, and most customers renting for a home project land somewhere between the day and week columns. If you want something nicer than the base unit, look at the deluxe flushable porta potty, and if the job needs accessible fixtures, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit when portable toilets are clustered together, which is exactly what the ADA accessible porta potty page covers. Delivery anywhere from Page Park, about 5.0 miles southwest, to Tice, 7.3 miles north, works the same way: we confirm the drop spot, check ground clearance, and set the tank level. For anyone comparing porta john rental rates against a full restroom trailer, the restroom trailer rental page breaks down when the upgrade makes sense.

Porta john rental price depends mostly on duration, not on where in Fort Myers you're placing it. A single day sits at the low end, a week is a middle ground, and a month is the best per-day value if the project runs long. Delivery is billed separately and scales the same way. Check the porta potty rental cost page for the full breakdown, or the monthly porta potty rental page if you're planning past 30 days.
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $100 | $150 | $350 |
| Week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| Month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
Delivery fees run separately, from about $50 on the low end for a week-long rental up to $420 for month-long jobs with tougher access. For an event weekend instead of a work week, expect a flat rate rather than a per-day number; see the porta potty rental per day page for how daily and weekend pricing differ. If you're weighing a luxury porta john rental against the standard unit for a wedding or corporate event, the deluxe and trailer options both carry higher day rates but come with sinks and better finishes, covered on the event restroom rental page.
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline for construction sites: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then additional seats as the crew grows past that. Agricultural operations follow a different rule, OSHA 1928.110, which calls for one facility per 20 hand-labor employees within a quarter mile walk, relevant if you're staffing a farm site covered on our farm and agricultural restrooms page. For events, the math is about headcount and hours, not a fixed OSHA ratio, and our how many porta potties do I need guide walks through both cases. Servicing follows the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit per week for up to 10 users across a 40-hour week, though busy sites in Fort Myers often need more frequent pumping. If your crew is applying paint, coatings or pesticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for those specific contaminant exposures, which is a separate need from general toilets and worth pairing with a handwashing station rental. Full construction-specific counts and citations live on the OSHA portable toilet requirements page.
Placement in the public right of way in Fort Myers needs confirming with the city before delivery day, since permit rules and any fees aren't something we'll guess at here. If your unit sits entirely on private property, set back from the sidewalk, permitting is usually a non-issue, but corner lots and street-facing driveways in neighborhoods near Pine Manor, about 6.1 miles southwest of downtown Fort Myers, sometimes need a closer look. Our porta potty permit requirements page walks through what to check before you commit to a spot, and the porta potty placement guide covers ground clearance, slope and accessible route width, since ADA Standards section 403.5.1 calls for a minimum 36 inch clear path where accessible units are placed. If your job is time-sensitive, the emergency porta potty rental page covers same-window delivery when a site inspection or a broken existing unit forces a fast turnaround.
Yes. "Porta john" is a regional nickname, mostly heard in the Midwest and parts of the Northeast, for the same standard portable toilet used on job sites and at events. There's no difference in the unit, the tank size, or how it's serviced. See the porta john rental and portable toilet rental pages, they describe the identical product.
As long as the job needs. Day rentals cover weekend projects, weekly rates suit most construction phases, and monthly billing is cheapest per day for renovations or long builds. Fort Myers Porta Pros bills by the period that fits, and the monthly porta potty rental page has the specifics for extended jobs.
A standard unit is the basic 60 to 70 gallon toilet with a door and a vent. A luxury or deluxe version typically adds a flush mechanism, a sink, and better interior finish. See deluxe flushable porta potty for specs, or luxury restroom trailer if you need multiple stalls with running water.
Standard rentals include setup and pickup; servicing frequency depends on your rental length and usage. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a one-visit-per-week baseline for lighter use. Heavier job sites or multi-day events usually need extra pump-outs, which we schedule directly. Ask about a service add-on when you book.
