How many porta potties does an event need?

An event needs 1 standard unit per 50 guests for up to 4 hours. Add 1 unit per 150 guests if the event runs past 4 hours, and 1 more if alcohol is served. A 300-guest, 6-hour festival with beer needs 6 + 2 + 1 = 9 units, including at least 1 accessible unit.

This is our planning method: 1 unit per 50 guests, +1 per 150 guests past 4 hours, +1 for alcohol. Use the calculator for your exact numbers.

How many accessible units and sinks do events need?

An event needs at least 5% of the portable toilets in each cluster to be wheelchair accessible, and never fewer than one, under 2010 ADA Standards §213.2. Plan one two-sink handwashing station for every 3 to 4 toilets and one beside every food line.

For a festival with two restroom clusters of 12 units each, plan 1 accessible unit in each cluster and 3 to 4 handwashing stations total.

Do I need a permit for event restrooms in Sonoma County?

An event in unincorporated Sonoma County needs a Permit Sonoma special event permit when it uses public roads, charges admission, has amplified music, food vendors or tents, or runs past 11 pm. Permit Sonoma asks for the application at least 60 days ahead. Events inside Petaluma city limits go through the City of Petaluma.

Your permit office may set its own toilet count. When it does, follow theirs if it is higher than ours.

How do you service a multi-day festival?

A multi-day festival gets a full service each night or early morning: pump-out, deodorizer, scrub, restock and sink refill. For crowds over 1,000 per day, we can stage a technician on site. We set units in rows with the doors facing a lit, open walkway.

  • Place clusters near entrances, food and stages, each within a short walk.
  • Leave a service lane our truck can drive at night.
  • Keep units off slopes and away from wet ground.
