What are the OSHA portable toilet requirements for NJ construction sites?

OSHA Standard 1926.51(c)(1) mandates at least one portable toilet for every 10 workers on a job site (40-hour week). For crews larger than 20, we recommend increasing the ratio to prevent downtime.

How often are construction toilets serviced?

Our standard NJ construction rental includes 1x weekly service (cleaning, pump-out, and restocking). For high-traffic sites (20+ workers per unit), we recommend 2x weekly service to maintain sanitation standards.

Hidden Fees to Watch For

Comparing quotes? Make sure you check the fine print. We prioritize transparency, but many rental companies add these charges later:

Environmental/Fuel Surcharges: Often added as a separate line item (10-15%) on the final bill.
"Dry Run" Fees: Charged if the driver cannot access the unit (blocked by snow, cars, or locked gates).
Tip-Over Fees: Specialized cleanup charges if a unit is blown over or vandalized. (Ask about our Damage Waiver).
Early Termination: Some contracts lock you into a full billing cycle even if you finish the job early.

What changes the price (and why)

Volume & routing efficiency: Multi-unit and multi-site routes often reduce per-unit cost.
Rental length: Longer rentals usually price better than short, one-off months.
Service frequency: Weekly service is standard; more frequent service increases cost.
Access & logistics: Tight access, mud, distance from truck access, or special placement can affect cost.
Unit type: ADA, crane-sling, sinks, containment trays, etc. will price differently.

If you’re doing multiple sites across NJ, ask for a rollout quote and consolidated billing.

Construction pricing FAQ

What is the OSHA requirement for portable toilets in NJ?

OSHA Standard 1926.51(c)(1) requires 1 toilet for every 10 workers (for 40-hour weeks). For 20+ workers, we recommend 1 toilet + 1 urinal per 40 workers to reduce wait times and keep units cleaner.

Why do some contractors pay less per unit than others?

Large, long-term, multi-unit, and multi-site projects often qualify for lower per-unit pricing because routes are more efficient and service costs are spread across volume. Smaller, short-term rentals can price higher due to delivery, pickup, and routing overhead.

What’s included in the monthly range?

Typical monthly pricing depends on unit count and weekly service needs (cleaning, sanitizing, deodorizing, and restocking). Site access, special placements, or additional service frequency can affect totals.

Do you offer enterprise or municipal contract pricing?

Yes. If you have multiple locations, long-term needs, or high unit counts, request a consolidated quote for discounted per-unit pricing and streamlined billing.
