What does a porta potty cost in Des Moines, IA?

Expect a quoted price instead of a published one. That is how the trade works: of the 1,976 operator websites we read, very few post a rate at all. Call two or three and ask each of them the same four things: which unit, how long, how often they service it, and what delivery costs. To know whether a quote is reasonable before you make the call, there is the Iowa picture and the national rates by unit.

What kinds of unit can you rent in Des Moines?

From what each company says on its own site. A blank means they don't mention it, not that they haven't got one.

Most yards carry a standard unit, so that column separates nobody. The ones to check are the ADA unit and the restroom trailer, which need capital a small operator often skips.

What are you renting it for?

A yard in Des Moines will ask what it is for before it quotes, because the count and the unit both hang on the answer. These pages work it out first.

Common questions about porta potty rental in Des Moines, IA

Who rents porta potties in Des Moines?
We list 5 independently owned companies serving Des Moines, 4 of them based in town. National carriers, brokers and multi-state marketing networks are excluded, so this is smaller than a Google search and every name on it is a real local yard.
Can I get a wheelchair-accessible porta potty in Des Moines?
3 of the 5 companies serving Des Moines say they rent ADA accessible units. They are the first thing to run out on a busy weekend, so book that unit before the standard ones.
Can I rent a restroom trailer in Des Moines?
4 of the 5 companies serving Des Moines list restroom trailers. More than half the independents we read list one, so the scarce thing is the date, not the market. How many trailers any one yard holds is the number nobody publishes.
How much does it cost to rent a porta potty in Des Moines?
Measured across the operators who publish a rate, a standard unit is $110 to $170 a month and an ADA unit $135 to $290 a month, one figure per company. Trailers are priced per station, so no single range is honest. Your Des Moines figure moves with three things: the unit, the length of the rental, and the service schedule. Call two or three from the list and ask the same four things: the unit, how long you keep it, how often it is serviced, and what delivery costs.
Which porta potty company should I use in Des Moines?
Waste Solutions of Iowa (WSI) ranks first in Des Moines on our Index Score, at 97 out of 100, weighing review volume, rating, unit coverage and how easy they are to reach. On other measures: Bob's Premium Privies holds the highest rating at 5.0 across 7 reviews. No company can pay to move up this page, and none has.
Which porta potty companies are based in Des Moines?
4 of the 5 companies we list are based in Des Moines itself; the rest are within 25 miles. Ask where they service from, not where they are registered. The two are not always the same address.
How many porta potties do I need in Des Moines?
For an event, start at one unit per 50 guests over four hours and add 15–20% if you are serving alcohol. A 250-guest event in Des Moines running six hours works out at 6 units, or 8 once drinks are served, and at least one of those should be accessible — 3 of the 5 companies here list an ADA unit. For a job site the minimum is set by 29 CFR 1926.51(c): one toilet up to 20 workers, then one seat and one urinal per 40. Work it out for your numbers.
