Frequently Asked Questions in New Braunfels, TX

New Braunfels Porta Pros rents portable toilets, septic pumping, dumpsters, restroom trailers, storage containers, temporary fencing and handwashing stations. Most customers in New Braunfels ask 5 core questions before they rent. The answers below cover toilets for construction sites, events, septic service and ADA requirements.

How many porta potties do I need?

OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the count for construction: one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers up to 20, rising to one per 50 workers at 200 or more. For events, figure one unit per 50 to 100 guests depending on how long they stay and whether alcohol is served. New Braunfels Porta Pros helps you calculate the exact number for your site when you call. A standard porta potty holds 60 to 70 gallons and measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground, so placement matters too. If your site sits near Seguin (14.6 miles southeast) or Cibolo (14.9 miles southwest), we service those areas as well.

What's the difference between standard and deluxe?

A standard unit is the workhorse. It holds waste, has a toilet seat and privacy door. Deluxe flushable models add running water, a flushing mechanism and a sink inside, cutting odor and improving user experience. Deluxe units cost more to rent but they're worth it for events where guests expect comfort or for job sites with strict hygiene codes. New Braunfels Porta Pros delivers both. Call for a porta potty rental cost quote if you're weighing the two.

Do I need an ADA accessible unit?

Yes, if your event or construction site is open to the public or employs people with mobility challenges. The ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that where single-user portable toilet units are clustered, at least 5 percent (never fewer than one) must be accessible. An ADA accessible porta potty has a 60 inch diameter turning circle (ADA Standards section 304.3.1), a 32 inch minimum clear door opening (ADA Standards section 404.2.3), and a 36 inch minimum clear route width (ADA Standards section 403.5.1). New Braunfels venues and construction projects often need these. We stock them and can deliver quickly.

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size. If you're in New Braunfels and you're building, renovating or facing a septic emergency, call New Braunfels Porta Pros. We handle septic tank pumping and grease trap pumping on the same day. A grease interceptor is pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth. Delays cost money, so don't wait.

What washing facilities do I need on a construction site?

OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water in all places of employment. If your crew is applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) mandates washing facilities. These must include soap and towels or a hand drying device per 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2); hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy the rule. New Braunfels Porta Pros offers handwashing station rental with hot water, soap dispensers and paper towel holders. A portable sink rental keeps crews compliant and healthy.

What about roll-off dumpsters for construction debris?

Order by the day, week or month. We deliver and haul away. Call New Braunfels Porta Pros for a quote on roll-off dumpster rental or ask about what cannot go in a dumpster.

Can I rent a restroom trailer for an event?

Yes. Restroom trailer rental ranges from 2 stalls to 8 stalls, with climate control, lighting, and hot water. Perfect for weddings, festivals and outdoor events in New Braunfels.

Do you service nearby towns?

We serve New Braunfels. Schertz is 16.1 miles southwest, Universal City is 19.4 miles southwest, and Converse is 22.3 miles southwest.

How much does a porta potty rental cost per day?

Pricing depends on unit type and duration. Call for a quote on porta potty rental per day or monthly porta potty rental.
