DELIVERY & PLACEMENT

Porta Potty Delivery & Placement Checklist

Prepare the address, gates, stable placement, service route, utilities, and pickup contact before portable restrooms arrive.

The quick answer

Have an approved, stable placement location, a clear vehicle route, and an onsite contact ready before delivery. For a trailer, confirm the assigned model’s full setup space and utilities. Give the team the time the restroom must be usable, then rely on the agreed delivery window.

Use the right entrance

A mailing address may point to a front door rather than the construction gate or event loading area. For an Allen site near US 75 or a neighborhood property in Twin Creeks, describe the entrance the truck should use. Provide a contact who can guide the driver, and arrange any gate access directly with the team rather than publishing sensitive codes in the online form.

Measure the constraints, not just the empty spot

The PolyJohn PJN3 Static reference dimensions are 43.5 inches wide, 47 inches deep, and 91 inches high. Those numbers describe the equipment, not the truck route or complete working space. Gate hinges, tight turns, low branches, door swing, and service access can change whether a location is workable. Confirm the actual model before measuring.

Choose stable ground and preserve the route

Pick a level, stable surface outside vehicle movement and away from obstructions. Reconsider soft ground after rain. An accessible unit also needs an appropriate route for the people using it; extra interior room does not fix a curb or an unsuitable approach. Tell the team if site work will change fencing, ground conditions, or parking after delivery.

Confirm trailer utilities before setup

The two-stall trailer in the call notes prompted questions about a hose connection and 110-volt electricity. Requirements vary by trailer. Get the exact voltage, amperage, circuits, water connection, cable or hose reach, and any independent supply options confirmed. Include the tongue, steps, and ramps in the layout.

Plan collection while planning delivery

For a weekend event, confirm whether pickup happens after guests leave and who will be available to open the site. Keep access clear until equipment is removed. For a project, call to confirm collection and the billing stop point; do not assume that work ending automatically ends the rental.
