Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about renting porta potties, luxury restroom trailers, and portable sanitation equipment in North Hollywood and greater Los Angeles.

Renting & Booking

How do I rent a porta potty in North Hollywood, CA?

Call (209) 703-7899 to speak directly with our team. We will ask about your location, the number of units you need, how long you need them, and the type of event or project. From there, we schedule delivery to your North Hollywood or Los Angeles area address at a time that works for you.

How far in advance should I book my porta potty rental?

We recommend booking at least 48 to 72 hours in advance for standard rentals in North Hollywood and greater Los Angeles. For large events requiring multiple units or for construction projects with specific start dates, a week or more of advance notice ensures the best availability. That said, we do accommodate last-minute rental requests when our schedule allows — call us and we will do our best to help.

Can I rent a porta potty for just one day?

Yes. Gump Toilet Rentals offers single-day and weekend porta potty rentals throughout North Hollywood and Los Angeles. Short-term rentals are popular for residential projects, outdoor events, and weekend construction work. Call (209) 703-7899 to confirm availability for your specific dates.

What information do I need when calling to book?

When you call us, it helps to have your delivery address in the Los Angeles area, your desired delivery and pickup dates, the approximate number of people who will be using the units, and the type of event or project (construction site, outdoor wedding, festival, residential remodel, etc.). Our team will take it from there and help you choose the right solution.

Unit Quantity & Sizing

How many portable toilets do I need for my event?

A general industry guideline is one standard porta potty per 50 guests for events lasting up to 4 hours. For events running 4 to 8 hours, plan one unit per 40 guests. For events over 8 hours or those serving alcohol, increase to one unit per 25 to 30 guests. Our team can help you calculate the right number for your Los Angeles event based on attendance, duration, and type of gathering.

How many porta potties are required for a construction site?

OSHA guidelines generally require one toilet per 20 workers for an 8-hour shift on construction sites. For crews working in North Hollywood and Los Angeles, we recommend one unit per 10 workers to ensure compliance and worker comfort. Long-term construction rentals also include a scheduled servicing plan to keep units clean throughout the project.

What is the difference between a standard porta potty and a luxury restroom trailer?

A standard porta potty is a self-contained, single-occupancy plastic unit suitable for construction sites, outdoor festivals, and casual events. A luxury restroom trailer is a larger, trailer-mounted unit featuring multiple stalls, climate control, running water sinks, interior lighting, mirrors, and upscale finishes — designed for weddings, corporate functions, film productions, and high-end events throughout Los Angeles County.

Services & Equipment

Do you offer ADA-compliant portable restrooms?

Yes. We provide ADA-accessible portable toilets with wider interiors, interior grab bars, and ground-level access ramps to accommodate guests or workers with disabilities. These units meet federal ADA accessibility requirements and are available for events, construction sites, and public gatherings throughout Los Angeles County. Call (209) 703-7899 to check availability.

Do you provide handwashing stations?

Yes. We offer standalone handwashing station rentals that can be paired with any porta potty rental throughout Los Angeles. Our self-contained units include fresh water tanks, soap dispensers, and paper towel holders. These are strongly recommended for food service events, health-conscious gatherings, and any construction site in North Hollywood or greater LA.

How often are porta potties serviced during long-term rentals?

For construction sites and ongoing long-term rentals in North Hollywood and Los Angeles, we provide weekly scheduled servicing that includes pumping, cleaning, disinfecting, and restocking supplies. For high-usage sites, additional service visits can be arranged. Regular servicing keeps units sanitary and fully functional throughout your project timeline.

What types of events use portable toilet rentals?

Portable toilets are used across a wide range of events and projects throughout Los Angeles, including outdoor weddings, music concerts and festivals, film and TV productions, food fairs and farmers markets, community events, sports tournaments, home renovation projects, construction sites, disaster relief operations, and more. Gump Toilet Rentals can match the right unit to any type of event or worksite need.

How do I prepare my site for porta potty delivery?

Identify a flat, stable surface with adequate clearance for our delivery truck. The placement area should be accessible and kept clear of obstacles.
