Where can I rent a porta potty in Allentown?
Right here. Allentown Porta Pros covers the city and the towns around it, so our service area runs from downtown out to the edges of the valley. We handle construction site services and event restroom rental alike. Need one unit for a home renovation? Done. Need forty for a festival? Also done.
We reach Bethlehem 7.3 miles east and South Whitehall 5.5 miles northwest without a surcharge headache. Bethlehem, Easton 17.0 miles northeast, Lower Macungie 8.9 miles southwest and Upper Macungie 10.2 miles west each have their own page. So does Allentown itself. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city first, because that rule is not one we quote from memory. Read the permit guide before you park a unit on a street.
What does portable toilet rental cost in Allentown?
Price depends on the unit and how long you keep it. A standard unit is the base. A deluxe flushable model costs more. A restroom trailer costs the most. Weekly rates beat daily rates for anything past a few days, and monthly is the cheapest per day. Here is the short version.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 150 | 200 | 200 |
| ADA | 230 | 185 | - |
| Storage container | - | - | 125 |
| Dumpster | 75 | 600 | 108 |
Delivery is billed separately, typically around 150 dollars for a standard drop. A weekend standard unit runs about 250 dollars in prose terms, since a short-term rate sits above the weekday day rate. For the full picture see the porta potty rental cost page, the per-day rates, or monthly pricing. Those pages carry the price bands from 799 measured datapoints.
Which porta potty type should I rent?
Four types cover almost every job. The standard porta potty suits construction and general use. The deluxe flushable unit adds a flush and a sink, which weddings and offices want. The ADA accessible unit meets ADA Standards section 404.2.3 with a 32 inch clear door opening and gives a wheelchair the 60 inch turning circle from ADA Standards section 304.3.1.
A restroom trailer is the step up from all three. We build them in a 2-stall, 4-stall and 8-stall layout, plus a luxury version and a shower trailer. Same family as the portable toilet, porta john and portable restroom names you see elsewhere. They all mean a toilet you can rent. If you are unsure, the rental checklist walks you through it.
How fast can you deliver in Allentown?
Most orders get placed within one business day. Same-day happens on short-notice calls when a truck is free. A standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands about 92 inches tall, so it fits most driveways and staging pads. Give us a firm spot and a clear path.
For emergencies, storms, water-main breaks and sudden shutdowns, we run emergency porta potty rental and disaster relief sanitation. If a septic backup is the real problem, emergency septic service answers that. Placement matters more than people think, so read the placement guide before we arrive. A roll-off dumpster needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, and toilets need less but still need a truck to reach them. Allentown streets get tight downtown. Tell us if yours does.
How does the service work?
We drop the unit, we service it on a schedule, we haul it away at the end. A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons in its tank. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, and that is the interval we build most contracts around. Heavy use gets more.
Each visit pumps the tank, refills paper and deodorizer, and cleans the interior. Curious how that runs day to day? The guide on how porta potties work covers it, and how often they are cleaned covers the schedule. Worried about odor? Do porta potties smell answers straight. Winter changes things, so porta potty in winter is worth a look. If you run a septic system, we pump and clean tanks too.
How many porta potties do I need for a job?
Count your people and your hours. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets one toilet for 20 workers or fewer on a construction site, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you pass 20, and one per 50 at 200 or more. That table is the backbone of OSHA portable toilet requirements and our how many do I need guide.
Events run on a different math, closer to headcount and drink service. A wedding, a concert, a marathon, a golf tournament and a county fair each pull a different crowd rhythm. Agriculture has its own rule: OSHA 1928.110 wants one facility per 20 hand-labor workers within a quarter-mile walk, which shapes our farm and agricultural restrooms. Film sets and camping fall between. When workers apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) adds a washing requirement on top of the toilet count.
Do I need handwashing and other site gear too?
Often, yes. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) says washing facilities need soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it. That is why a handwashing station or a portable sink usually rides along with the toilets. A hand sanitizer station supplements but does not replace them. See the handwashing requirements page for the full read.
A working site needs more than toilets. We rent temporary fence in chain link, crowd control barriers, storage containers in 20ft and 40ft, a mobile office trailer, a light tower and a temporary power pole. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires potable water at every worksite, and OSHA 1926.404(b)(1)(ii) requires GFCI protection where that power pole goes in.
Where does Allentown Porta Pros deliver?
Allentown first, then the towns around it. South Whitehall is 5.5 miles northwest, Bethlehem 7.3 miles east, Lower Macungie 8.9 miles southwest, Upper Macungie 10.2 miles west and Easton 17.0 miles northeast. Each has its own page: Bethlehem, Easton, South Whitehall, Lower Macungie and Upper Macungie.
Dumpsters travel the same routes. Pick by size: 10 yard, 20 yard, 30 yard or 40 yard. Check the weight limits and what cannot go in before you fill one, and the permit rules before it hits the street. We handle construction dumpsters and full roll-off pricing too. Questions?

Frequently asked questions
How much is a standard porta potty per day in Allentown?
A standard unit typically runs about 150 dollars a day. A week is a better value than seven single days, and a month is the lowest per-day rate. Delivery is billed on top. The per-day page and cost page show the full bands.
How quickly can you deliver a portable toilet?
Most orders get placed within one business day, and same-day is possible on short-notice calls when a truck is open. Give us a firm placement spot and a clear path. For urgent situations, emergency porta potty rental moves faster still.
How often do you service the unit?
The ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline is one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Heavier use gets more frequent service. Each visit pumps the 60 to 70 gallon tank, cleans the interior and restocks supplies. See how often they are cleaned.
Do I need a permit to place one on the street?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city first. We do not quote an Allentown ordinance from memory, because a wrong number costs you and us. The permit guide explains what to check before a unit goes on pavement.
Which unit works best for a wedding?
A deluxe flushable unit or a restroom trailer. Both add a flush and a sink that guests expect. A luxury trailer goes further with finished interiors. Our wedding restroom rental page walks through counts and layout.
Do you rent handwashing stations separately?
Yes. A handwashing station or portable sink rents on its own or with toilets. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a dryer, so sanitizer alone does not meet the rule. See handwashing requirements.
Do you serve towns outside Allentown?
Yes. Bethlehem 7.3 miles east, South Whitehall 5.5 miles northwest, Lower Macungie 8.9 miles southwest, Upper Macungie 10.2 miles west and Easton 17.0 miles northeast are all on the route. See the service areas page for the full map.
