How Much Is a Porta Potty Rental for a Day?
Portable toilet rental cost per day depends on the unit, not just the calendar, whether you are searching porta potty rental cost per day near me or comparing porta potty rental cost for a day against a full week. A standard porta potty rental sits at $100 to $350 for one day, based on 62 measured jobs, with most falling near $150. Need something nicer for a backyard party near Fox Farm-College, 2.0 miles south of Cheyenne? A deluxe flushable porta potty day rate spans $85 to $1,200, a wide band because deluxe units range from a simple flush model to a fully finished cabin. An ADA accessible porta potty for a day costs $200 to $400, reflecting the wider door and turning space required. If your event runs Friday through Sunday, ask about the weekend rate instead of stacking three day rates, since weekend pricing is built for that stretch. Delivery is usually billed separately, and a day-rate delivery fee runs $100 to $500 depending on distance and access. Check the porta potty rental cost page for the full breakdown across all durations, or see porta potty rental prices if you are comparing day against week.
Why Does a One Day Rental Cost More Per Day Than a Week?
Because the delivery and pickup trip is the expensive part, not the days in between. A crew still has to drive to the site, drop the unit, and return to collect it, and that cost gets spread over just one day instead of five or thirty. A porta potty rental per day rate of $100 to $350 looks steep next to a weekly rate of $130 to $500, until you realize the week covers far more use for a similar trip cost. That is why a monthly porta potty rental in Cheyenne, at $125 to $325, often beats renting by the day for anything longer than a weekend. If you are running a home renovation porta potty job that might stretch past a week, ask Cheyenne Porta Pros to price it both ways before you commit.
Unit Type and Duration Pricing
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $100 - $350 | $130 - $500 | $125 - $325 |
| ADA accessible | $200 - $400 | $240 - $400 | -- |
| Deluxe flushable | $85 - $1,200 | $150 - $290 | -- |
Weekend rates sit outside this table because they are a separate short-stay price, not a multiple of the day rate. A standard unit over a weekend typically runs $125 to $400, and an ADA unit runs $199 to $300 for the same stretch. If you are placing units on a construction site, OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the ratio: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, and one toilet plus one urinal for every 40 workers once you pass that threshold. Crews working near Warren AFB, 5.0 miles west of Cheyenne, still fall under that same federal rule regardless of the base's proximity.

Where Should the Unit Go for a One-Day Event?
Pick a spot with a stable, level surface and enough clearance for the service truck to reach it without backing across landscaping. ADA Standards section 302.1 requires the ground surface itself to be stable, firm and slip resistant, which matters on gravel lots or freshly graded yards around Cheyenne. If you are placing more than one unit, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent of a cluster to be accessible, and never fewer than one unit, so a two or three-unit event drop still needs one ADA unit in the mix. Give the crew a clear path at least 36 inches wide per ADA Standards section 403.5.1, since narrower gaps make placement slower and pickup harder. The porta potty placement guide covers ground clearance and spacing in more detail, and the how many porta potties do I need guide helps if you are unsure on unit count for a single-day headcount. For weddings, check the wedding restroom rental page, and for larger public gatherings the festival restroom rental and county fair restrooms pages price out multi-unit setups.
Cheyenne Porta Pros also handles same-day drops for smaller sites like Ranchettes, 9.2 miles north of the city, and Hillsdale, 21.9 miles east, though longer drives can shift the delivery fee upward. If your event needs handwashing alongside the toilet, a handwashing station rental pairs with any day-rate unit, and 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at that station, not sanitizer alone. For jobs involving paint, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities specifically for that exposure, which is worth flagging if your one-day job includes any of those materials.
How much is a porta potty rental for a day near me?
Expect $100 to $350 for a standard unit in Cheyenne, with delivery billed separately at $100 to $500 depending on distance. Exact cost depends on how far the site sits from the depot and whether you need a deluxe or ADA unit instead.
Is a one day porta potty rental cheaper than a weekend rental?
Not usually, because weekend pricing is built as its own short-stay rate, not a multiple of the day price. A standard unit weekend rate runs $125 to $400, which often covers Friday through Sunday for close to the same money as two separate day rentals.
Does the day rate include delivery and pickup?
Sometimes, but not always. Many quotes list the unit rental and the delivery fee separately, with delivery running $100 to $500 for a single day depending on distance and site access. Always ask Cheyenne Porta Pros to confirm whether delivery is bundled before you compare prices.
Can I get a porta potty delivered and picked up the same day?
Yes, that is exactly what a one-day rental is. The crew drops the unit in the morning or the day before your event and returns for pickup once the event ends, which is standard for weddings, backyard parties, and short jobsite needs.
What is the cheapest porta potty option for a single day?
A standard unit is the lowest-cost option, starting around $100 for a basic one-day rental. Deluxe and ADA units cost more because of the added features and required accessibility specs, so stick with standard unless your event needs otherwise.
