A standard porta potty rental in Fort Myers runs about $100 to $150 a day and $130 to $200 a week, based on 62 measured day-rate jobs. It is the plain plastic single-stall unit you picture when someone says porta potty: no sink, no frills, built to handle a job site or a backyard party without complaint.
This is the basic unit. No flush, no foot pump, just a holding tank and a door that locks. Fort Myers Porta Pros stocks these as the default for construction site services and one-off projects around Fort Myers because they are simple to deliver, simple to service, and cheap to keep on site for months at a time. If you want the flush version instead, look at the deluxe flushable porta potty, and if the site needs a wheelchair-accessible stall, check the ADA accessible porta potty page before you order. Some customers just search porta john rental or portable toilet rental and land here anyway, which is fine. It is the same box.
A standard unit measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank underneath the seat. That footprint matters when you are planning placement near a building entrance, a fence line, or a loading area, so read the porta potty placement guide before delivery day. Fort Myers sites near Page Park, about 5.0 miles southwest of downtown, often need units tucked along a curb or a construction fence, which is where the temporary fence rental and chain link temporary fence pages come in handy for keeping the unit enclosed. Ground has to be reasonably level and stable; ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for stable, firm, slip resistant surfaces on accessible routes, and it is good practice for any unit, accessible or not.
Cost depends on how long you need it and how many units. Here is the standard-unit pricing, pulled from our own dataset:
| Duration | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $100 | $150 | $350 |
| Week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| Month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
| Weekend | $125 | $250 | $400 |
| Event | $200 | $400 | $800 |
Delivery is usually billed separately, and that fee ranges from about $50 to $150 for a week-long placement based on 14 datapoints. For a deeper breakdown by rental length, see porta potty rental cost, porta potty rental per day, and monthly porta potty rental. If you are comparing this to a dumpster or a storage container for the same job, the roll-off dumpster rental and storage container rental pages carry their own pricing tables worth a look.
OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline for construction sites: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you pass 20, dropping to one per 50 workers at 200 or more. That standard applies to job sites, not events, so if you are planning a wedding or a festival, use the guide at how many porta potties do I need instead, since crowd math runs differently than crew math. Agricultural operations follow a separate rule, OSHA 1928.110, which calls for one facility per 20 hand-labor employees within a quarter mile walk, relevant if you are staffing a farm near Tice, about 7.3 miles north of Fort Myers. For the full OSHA breakdown on toilets, sinks, and water, read OSHA portable toilet requirements. Service frequency matters too: ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a baseline of one service visit per week for up to 10 users across a 40 hour week, though busy sites often need more.
Most residential jobs in Fort Myers, a bathroom remodel or a re-roof, need exactly one standard unit for the crew and nothing more. Commercial builds and long-term projects are where the math above starts to matter. If your crew works near Pine Manor, roughly 6.1 miles southwest, or further out toward Estero, about 17.4 miles south, delivery logistics and drive time can shift your delivery fee, so it helps to confirm placement early with Fort Myers Porta Pros rather than guess.
No sink is built in. Most standard units ship with a hand sanitizer dispenser mounted inside, but that does not satisfy 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which requires soap and towels or a hand drying device at washing facilities. If your crew is painting, coating, or using herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that work specifically. Add a unit from handwashing station rental or portable sink rental to cover it.
Weekly is standard for a light-use unit, per the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit per week for up to 10 users. Busy construction sites or multi-day events usually need two or three visits weekly. See how often are porta potties cleaned for how that schedule adjusts with headcount.
Yes. Weekend rates run separately from day and week pricing, typically $125 to $400 depending on how many units and where in Fort Myers you need delivery. Weekend orders work well for backyard parties or short home projects; see home renovation porta potty for renovation-specific guidance.
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before delivery. We have not verified a specific ordinance number for Fort Myers, so check with the city directly or read porta potty permit requirements for what to ask about.
Standard units have no flush and no sink; deluxe units add a flushing mechanism and sometimes a hand-wash basin. Deluxe day rates run $85 to $1,200 depending on features, versus $100 to $350 for standard. Compare both on the deluxe flushable porta potty page before you decide.
