How many uses does a standard porta potty hold?
A standard porta potty's 60-gallon tank holds roughly 200 uses before it should be pumped. That is about a 4-hour party for 50 guests, or a week for a crew of 10.

Each standard unit arrives with 2 rolls of toilet paper and a full hand-sanitizer dispenser. Monthly units are restocked at every weekly service.
Can a standard porta potty go on grass?
A standard porta potty sits fine on level grass, gravel, dirt, asphalt or concrete. Avoid slopes steeper than about 2 inches across the base, soft mud and spots over septic lids.
Is a standard unit OK for a party, or only for construction?
Standard units work well for backyard parties, cookouts and graduation parties. Event units are pressure-washed and inspected before delivery. For a dressier event, step up to a sink or deluxe flushing unit.
