Who rents porta potties in Boston?
Boston's triple-deckers in Dorchester, South Boston and Jamaica Plain keep renovation crews busy, and each gut rehab needs a unit. Seaport and Back Bay office and lab construction calls for multiple units with hand-wash stations.

Crews use our construction porta potty rentals; hosts use event and party units.
What should I know before a Boston delivery?
Many Boston streets are one-way, tightly parked and lined with resident-permit spaces. A back yard, alley or fenced job lot is usually the easiest spot, so clear it before the truck arrives. North End and Beacon Hill streets are often too narrow for a quick curbside drop, so plan placement with us first.
See the full placement checklist before delivery day.
Does Boston require a permit for a portable toilet?
Any unit on a Boston street, sidewalk or in a parking lane needs a street occupancy permit, so check with Boston Public Works before delivery. For events in city parks, check with Boston Parks and Recreation. Units kept on private land, such as a driveway or fenced jobsite, rarely need approval.

Does weather affect a porta potty rental in Boston?
Snow emergencies and parking bans can block curbside spots, so keep the unit on private ground in winter. Early September move-in week in Allston, Brighton and the Fenway jams streets, which can shift delivery times. If a storm closes roads, we shift that week's service by a day and tell you first.

Boston porta potty questions
Do I need a permit to put a porta potty in front of my triple-decker in Dorchester?
A unit on the street or sidewalk in Dorchester needs a street occupancy permit from Boston Public Works. Check with them before delivery. A spot in your driveway, side yard or back yard usually avoids the street permit. Send us a photo and we can help you pick a spot the truck can reach.
Can you deliver to a South Boston jobsite the same day?
South Boston is within about 40 miles of Salem, NH, so same-day is often possible if you call by 12 noon. It depends on truck availability that day, and a rush fee may apply. Have the address, the drop spot and a site contact ready. Morning traffic on I-93 can affect the arrival time.
What should I rent for a block party in Jamaica Plain?
A block party of about 100 guests usually works with two standard units or flushing units and one hand-wash station. Add a wheelchair-accessible unit so every guest is covered. Units are usually dropped Friday and picked up Monday for weekend events. Check with the city about a block party permit before booking.
How fast can you deliver a porta potty to Boston?
Boston is about 33 road miles from our Salem, NH yard, roughly 45 minutes by truck via i-93 south straight into the city. Call by 12 noon for same-day delivery when trucks are available. Otherwise delivery is 1 to 2 business days, and weekend events drop on Friday.
