Which porta potty do you need?
A standard porta potty fits most Harrisburg job sites and backyard parties. Choose a sink unit when guests need running water, a deluxe flushing unit for weddings, a wheelchair-accessible unit when anyone uses a mobility aid, and a restroom trailer when you have power, water and a dressier crowd.

Local know-how
What Harrisburg renters should know first
Three Harrisburg conditions change how a porta potty rental should be set up: winter nights below freezing, city rules for anything placed on a street, and Susquehanna River flooding near Shipoke and City Island. Planning for each one avoids a frozen tank, a ticket or a washed-out unit.
Winter freeze protection
Harrisburg's average January low is 23°F (NOAA 1991–2020 normals). From November through March we add a freeze-resistant charge to tanks at every service and keep sink units indoors-ready. Ask for this on any winter job.
Street and sidewalk placement
Units on private property need no city permit. A unit in a Harrisburg street or parking lane needs a street closure request to the City Engineer at least 3 business days ahead. Rowhome owners usually place in a rear yard or alley pad instead.
River-side events
The Susquehanna reaches flood stage at 17 feet at Harrisburg. For City Island and Riverfront Park events we watch the river forecast and move units to higher ground before a crest, at no charge.

Porta potty rental questions from Harrisburg customers
How much does a porta potty rental cost in Harrisburg?
A standard porta potty for a party or event starts at $195, which covers up to 4 days with delivery and pickup inside our Harrisburg core area. A monthly job-site unit starts at $185 per 28-day cycle with weekly cleaning included, plus a one-time $55 delivery and pickup fee. Your written quote lists every line before you pay. Full breakdown: porta potty rental cost guide.
Can you deliver a porta potty today?
Same-day delivery is available Monday to Saturday when you call (717) 210-4374 by 12 PM and a truck is open on your side of the river. A $75 same-day fee applies. Calls after 12 PM are usually set first thing the next morning. Details: same-day porta potty rental.
Do I need to be home when the porta potty is delivered?
You do not need to be there. Mark the spot with a cone, chair or ribbon, unlock any gate, and add a note to your order. The driver texts a photo of the placed unit when the drop is done.
Do you deliver on weekends?
Saturday deliveries run 7 AM to 5 PM. Sunday events are set up on Friday or Saturday and picked up Monday, at no extra charge for the extra days. The event price covers up to 4 days, so a Friday drop costs the same as a Saturday drop.
What comes inside a standard porta potty?
Every standard unit has a seat, a urinal, a roof vent, a coat hook, a hand-sanitizer dispenser and 2 rolls of toilet paper. The tank holds a blue deodorizing treatment. A unit with a foot-pump sink inside is available if guests or crews need to wash with water.
How often is a porta potty cleaned?
Monthly rentals get one service visit every week: the tank is pumped, the inside is washed and sanitized, and paper and sanitizer are restocked. Event units arrive cleaned and stocked. Extra visits can be added for busy sites or long events.
Where can the porta potty go on my property?
Pick a flat, firm spot within about 15 feet of where our service truck can park. Grass, gravel, a driveway or a slab all work. Keep it clear of low wires and doors, and away from the street unless you have a city permit for the right-of-way.
How do I stop a monthly rental and get the unit picked up?
Call or text the office and say you are done. Pickup is scheduled within 1 to 2 business days, and billing stops the day you call. Units are never picked up automatically, so a quick call saves you an extra cycle.
