What the California numbers say

California has 201 independently owned operators on this index across 86 towns we cover. They are spread reasonably evenly instead of piling into one metro, so most towns here have a real choice instead of one yard covering everything. 95% of them name standard units on their own website, the best covered unit in the state. The scarce end is shower trailers, named by under a quarter of them. If that is what the job needs, book early and call more than one yard.

What does a porta potty cost in California?

Measured rates run $110 to $170 a month for a standard unit and $135 to $290 a month for an ADA unit, taken from the operators who publish a rate. Restroom trailers are priced by the number of stations; the industry's own reference range is $800 to $3,500 a month. California sits inside that range. Where you land depends on three things: which unit you need, how long you keep it, and how often it gets serviced.

The fastest way to a real number is two quotes. Every company below is independently owned and answers its own phone, so you are talking to the yard, not a call center that will sell your job on.
