For public events, aim for 5% of your total restroom fleet to be accessible, or at least one unit per restroom location.

What is the difference between XLT and ADA portable toilets?

ADA units meet strict federal guidelines for turning radius and grab bars. XLT units are larger and ground-level but may not meet every technical specification for full ADA compliance.

ADA Planning FAQs

How many ADA units do I need?

For public events, a common rule of thumb is 5% of your total fleet should be accessible, or at least one ADA unit per restroom cluster (bank). For job sites, check your specific contract requirements.

What is the difference between XLT and ADA units?

The ADA Unit is larger and meets specific turning radius guidelines for wheelchairs. The XLT Unit is ground-level and spacious but slightly smaller, making it great for "accessibility-friendly" needs without strict legal compliance.

Where should I place the ADA restroom?

Place it on flat, paved ground whenever possible. It must be accessible via a smooth path (no curbs or stairs). It should be located adjacent to the standard restrooms for equal access.
