Is a porta potty billed by the month or every 28 days?
Job-site and long-term porta potties are billed every 28 days from the delivery date, not by calendar month. That works out to 13 cycles a year instead of 12, so a 12-week job is exactly 3 cycles. Cycle 2 and later cost less because the delivery line drops off.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| When does the first cycle start? | The day the unit is delivered |
| Does a 31-day month cost more? | No. The cycle is always 28 days, whatever the calendar says |
| Is month 2 cheaper? | Yes. Cycle 2+ has no delivery line |
| How do I stop billing? | Call 2 business days before the cycle ends to schedule pickup |
| One week only? | Ask the dispatcher to compare an event rate with a 28-day cycle before you book |
See the long-term and monthly rental page for multi-month job sites.
What fees do other porta potty companies add after the quote?
In the 334 rental calls we reviewed, fees added after the quote were one of the top complaints. Callers named fuel surcharges, a card fee near 3%, convenience fees and a $29 removal fee from other companies. A Beaumont Porta Potty quote lists every line before you pay, and nothing is added afterward.
| Fee callers ran into | How it showed up | On a Beaumont Porta Potty quote |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel or environmental surcharge | Added to the invoice after booking | Not added after you approve. Distance is already in the delivery line. |
| Card processing fee (callers mentioned about 3%) | Tacked on at checkout or on later months | Not a surprise line. Cards and debit are paid by secure link. |
| Convenience or booking fee | A line with no clear service behind it | No such line. Every line names a unit, a period, a service or a trip. |
| Removal fee (one caller saw $29) | Charged at the end, or held on the card | Pickup is part of the delivery-and-pickup line you see up front. |
| Extra-day charge for a Friday drop | Weekend event billed as 3–4 days | One flat event rate for Friday drop, Monday pickup. |
How do I compare a cheaper porta potty quote with yours?
Compare out-the-door totals, not the first number you hear. One caller had another quote at $175 and asked us to match it. The useful questions are the same 5 every time: is delivery and pickup in, is tax in, how many days, is service included, and can fees be added later?
- Ask for the total in writingA text or email with every line. A phone number alone can change.
- Check the daysIs a Saturday party billed as 1 day, 3 days, or a full cycle?
- Check serviceJob-site units need weekly service. A quote without it is not the same product.
- Ask who owns the truckAbout 16% of our callers asked if they had reached a local yard or a broker. A broker may resell a hauler you never meet.
- Ask about after-feesFuel, card and removal fees are where cheap quotes catch up.

How can I lower the cost of a porta potty rental?
The 5 easiest ways to lower a porta potty bill: book early for holiday weekends, avoid the same-day rush fee when you can, put every unit on 1 order, choose standard units plus a handwash station instead of all flushables, and call 2 business days ahead to stop job-site billing on time.
- Book aheadCherry Festival week and holiday weekends fill 7–10 days out. Calling early skips rush pricing.
- Order onceDelivery is quoted per order. Adding a unit later can mean a second trip.
- Right-sizeUse the porta potty calculator so you do not rent a unit you will not use.
- Mix unitsA standard unit plus a handwash station often costs less than a flushable with a sink.
- Stop on timeJob-site billing auto-renews. Call 2 business days before the cycle ends.
What would my party, job site or wedding cost?
Here are 3 worked examples using typical 2026 ranges: a 40-guest backyard party, a 12-week tract crew of 8, and a 120-guest wedding. Each uses our dispatch sizing rule. Totals are estimates before tax and show how unit count and type move the price more than anything else.
| Job | What we would send | Typical 2026 range |
|---|---|---|
| 40-guest backyard party, 4 hours, food, no bar | 1 standard unit + 1 handwash station, Friday drop, Monday pickup | about $300–$500 before tax |
| Same party with beer and wine | 2 standard units + 1 handwash station | about $475–$775 before tax |
| Tract framing crew of 8, 12 weeks | 1 standard unit, weekly service, 3 cycles of 28 days (84 days) | about $585–$855 in cycle charges, plus one delivery-and-pickup line and tax |
| 120-guest wedding, 6 hours, beer and wine — standard setup | 5 standard + 1 wheelchair-accessible + 2 handwash stations | about $1,350–$2,200 before tax |
| Same wedding — flushable setup | 5 flushable units with sinks + 1 wheelchair-accessible | about $1,850–$2,875 before tax |
| Same wedding — trailer setup | Restroom trailer + 1 wheelchair-accessible unit | about $1,725–$3,875 before tax |
The wedding count comes from our sizing rule: 120 ÷ 50 = 2.4 × 1.5 for 6 hours = 3.6, round up to 4, plus 1 for alcohol = 5 units. Read more on wedding restroom options and construction site toilets.
