When unexpected plumbing failures, water main breaks, or severe weather events strike the city, rapid response is crucial. Our emergency dispatch team is available 24/7 to deploy high volumes of portable toilets and hand wash stations to affected neighborhoods, providing critical relief when New Yorkers need it most.
We believe in transparent, upfront pricing with zero hidden fees. While exact costs fluctuate based on inventory and season, your rental price is determined by three main factors:
A standard construction unit is our most affordable option, while multi-stall luxury trailers command a premium. Bulk orders for large sites receive scaled pricing.
Event units are typically billed on a flat weekend rate (delivery Friday, pickup Monday). Construction rentals are billed on a recurring 28-day cycle.
One cleaning per week is standard. For high-traffic sites in Manhattan where adding more units isn't physically possible, we can schedule twice-weekly or daily pumping for an additional fee.
