Porta potties can come with a variety of features, including hand sanitizer dispensers, hand washing stations, lighting, mirrors, and even air conditioning. Some units are also wheelchair accessible.
The rental company is responsible for cleaning and maintaining the porta potties. They will typically come to the location periodically to empty and clean the waste tank, refill the toilet paper and supplies, and ensure that the unit is in good working condition.
Porta potties have a waste tank that is located beneath the toilet seat. When someone uses the toilet, the waste goes into the tank. The waste is then treated with chemicals to break it down and reduce odors. The tank can be emptied and cleaned after the rental period is over.
