How Much Does a Porta Potty Cost Per Month?
Standard units land between 125 and 325 dollars a month, with most jobs settling near 200. That is the monthly band from our own pricing data, pulled from 24 real rentals, and it holds whether you are running a construction crew in Cheyenne or a fenced lot 2 miles south near Fox Farm-College. Compare that to short stints: a porta potty rental per day sits closer to 100 to 350 dollars, and a standard porta potty rental by the week runs 130 to 500. Stretch the same unit to 30 days and the daily cost drops hard. Delivery is usually a separate line, typically 120 to 420 dollars for a month-long placement, per our delivery fee data. If you want the deluxe flush unit instead, monthly pricing on a deluxe flushable porta potty sits between 150 and 290 dollars a week, which changes the math if the rental runs long. Portable toilet rental cost per month questions usually come down to that same standard band plus a delivery line, so check the full breakdown on our porta potty rental cost page before you commit to a term.
Why Does Long Term Portable Toilet Rental Cost Less Per Day?
Because the delivery and pickup trip only happens twice, not every week. A single delivery run covers the whole month, so that fixed cost spreads thin. Service visits still happen on a set schedule under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which sets a baseline of one cleaning per week for up to 10 users across a 40 hour week. That servicing cadence does not change whether you rent for one week or twelve. What changes is how many times the truck has to make the drive out, whether that is into downtown Cheyenne or out toward Ranchettes, 9.2 miles north. Renters comparing a monthly porta potty rental against renting fresh each week almost always come out ahead going long, and long term porta potty rental cost stays lower per day the longer the job runs.

What Is Included in a Monthly Rental?
| item | typical monthly cost | notes |
|---|---|---|
| standard unit | 125 to 325 | 60 to 70 gallon tank, unit about 44 by 48 inches on the ground |
| delivery fee | 120 to 420 | one-time, covers drop and pickup |
| service fee | 100 to 300 | weekly cleaning per ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline |
| storage container (comparison) | 100 to 250 | for job sites also renting secure storage |
A standard unit stands about 92 inches tall and holds a 60 to 70 gallon tank, enough capacity that weekly servicing keeps pace on most job sites. If your crew count is over 20 workers, OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets the ratio: one toilet for 20 or fewer, then a toilet seat and urinal per 40 workers as you scale past that. Construction sites around Cheyenne, including jobs stretched toward Warren AFB 5.0 miles west, typically pair a standard unit with a handwashing station rental to cover 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device, not sanitizer alone. If the crew is using paints, coatings or solvents, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that contaminant exposure specifically. Farms running hand-labor crews follow a different rule, OSHA 1928.110, which sets one facility per 20 workers within a quarter mile walk. Need a mix of unit types on one site?

Do I Need a Permit for a Long Term Rental in Cheyenne?
Permit rules vary by placement, and right-of-way rules need confirming directly with the city before you set anything at the curb. If the unit sits on private property, most sites do not need a separate permit, but that is worth checking case by case since we have not verified specific Cheyenne code language for this page. If your job site needs an ADA-compliant unit, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units be accessible, with a minimum of one no matter how small the cluster. Our ADA accessible porta potty page has unit specs, and pricing for those runs 120 to 240 dollars weekly. For anyone unsure what local rules apply, our porta potty permit requirements guide is the place to start, and our porta potty placement guide covers where units can sit on a lot without blocking access routes. Renovation jobs and long remodels often ask this same question; see home renovation porta potty for that specific case.
How much does a porta potty cost per month near me?
Expect 125 to 325 dollars for a standard unit in Cheyenne, with delivery billed separately at 120 to 420 dollars. Exact cost depends on unit type, crew size and how far the delivery truck has to travel, whether that is downtown or out past South Greeley, 3.6 miles south.
Is a monthly rental cheaper than renting weekly four times?
Usually, yes. A month-long rental spreads the delivery fee across 30 days instead of four separate trips, and the monthly porta potty rental rate reflects that savings. Weekly standard rentals run 130 to 500 dollars each time you restart the clock.
Can I switch from a standard unit to a deluxe unit mid-rental?
Yes, most providers can swap units between service visits. Deluxe flush units run 150 to 290 dollars weekly, higher than standard, so expect the monthly total to shift. Ask about swap timing when you book through request a quote.
Do long term rentals still get cleaned weekly?
Yes. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a baseline of one service visit per week for up to 10 users, and that schedule holds for month-long rentals too. See how often are porta potties cleaned for the full cleaning cadence.
What happens if my job runs longer than a month?
Most rentals convert cleanly into the next month at the same monthly rate, no new delivery fee. Confirm renewal terms and any seasonal notes, especially for winter jobs, on our porta potty in winter page before extending.
