How much does a porta potty rental cost in Aurora?
Most people who want to rent a porta potty in Aurora want one number, and rent porta potty prices start with a standard porta potty rental, so here it is: plan on roughly $150 to $200 for a basic unit depending on how long you keep it. First Choice Porta Potty quotes the unit rate first, then the delivery fee and weekly service as separate lines so nothing hides in the total. A monthly rental on a jobsite is the cheapest way to keep a toilet on hand, because the weekly service visit gets spread across the month. Short one-day drops cost the most per day. That portable toilet rental cost holds across the whole portable toilet lineup, whether you rent a portable restroom, rent a porta john, or want port o potties for rent, from the basic single to the ADA accessible unit. The industry service baseline under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 is one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, and that visit is what you are paying for on a longer contract. Want the fast version?

What does a porta potty cost by unit and duration?
Here are the portable toilet rental costs we actually quote in Aurora, so you can see the price for portable toilet rental before you call. Weekly beats daily, monthly beats weekly, because the longer you keep a unit the less each day costs. If you are asking how much portable toilet rental runs, see the full cost breakdown or jump to a port o john rental.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $150 | $200 | $200 |
| Deluxe flushable | $250 | $290 | n/a |
| ADA accessible | $200 | $240 | n/a |
| Restroom trailer | $800 | $1,397 | n/a |
Weekend rates are quoted in prose, not in this table. A standard unit for a weekend event runs about $250, a deluxe flushable model closer to its day rate, and an ADA weekend around $240. A restroom trailer for a weekend is a different animal, often near $2,000. If you are pricing a wedding or gala, start on the luxury trailer page or the event restroom page instead. For full trailer pricing we break out sizes from the 2 stall up to the 8 stall.
What are the delivery, service and pickup fees?
These are the lines that surprise people, so we split them out. Delivery to an Aurora address usually lands between $100 and $150 for a single drop, a bit less on a longer contract where it is folded in. The weekly service visit, the part that pumps the tank and restocks paper, runs $30 to $60 a week on most standard rentals. Pickup at the end is billed the same way delivery is. A roll-off dumpster needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, and a porta potty delivery needs far less, but access still matters for the fee. That weekly service is not optional filler. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities must carry soap and towels or a dryer, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it, which is why a handwashing station is a common add-on. Ask about the portable sink option too. See how service and cleaning frequency affects your total.
Why do porta potty prices vary so much?
People ask how much does portable toilet rental cost and get different numbers for the same unit, and there is always a reason. Duration is the biggest lever: a one-day drop for a backyard party costs more per day than a monthly jobsite rental that runs for six months. Unit type is next. A standard unit sits on a footprint about 44 by 48 inches and stands roughly 92 inches tall, with a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank, so it is cheap to move and service. A deluxe flushable unit has a flush and a sink, which costs more. A restroom trailer needs power and water hookups, which is a different job entirely. Distance moves it too. We run to North Aurora 5.2 miles northwest and Montgomery 6.0 miles southwest at close-in rates, while Plainfield 12.6 miles south adds drive time. Frequency of service, ADA requirements, and how many units you need all push the number. Our placement guide explains what a clean drop site looks like.
How many porta potties do you need, and what does that cost?
Count first, then price. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets one toilet for up to 20 workers on a construction site, then one toilet and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up, and one per 50 workers once you pass 200. Get the count wrong and you either overpay or fail an inspection. Our how many do I need page walks the math for a crew, and the OSHA requirements page covers the rules for construction site services. Events run on headcount and hours instead, so a festival or concert needs more units than a small wedding. If your site has painters or applies herbicides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for those contaminant tasks specifically, which is a real line item, not a suggestion. Potable water is separately required under OSHA 1926.51(a)(1). A marathon or race has its own spacing needs. When you are unsure, send the headcount and we will size it.
What does a fair porta potty quote look like?
A fair quote names four things: the unit, the rental length, the service interval, and every fee. If a price looks low, check whether delivery and pickup are hidden or left off. First Choice Porta Potty writes the standard unit rate, then the delivery, then the weekly service, so you can see each part. For ADA jobs, the rules carry into the price. ADA Standards section 213.2 says where single-user units are clustered at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, must be accessible, so a cluster of 20 needs at least one ADA unit. That unit needs a 60 inch turning circle under ADA Standards section 304.3.1 and a firm, stable surface under ADA Standards section 302.1. Those are not upsells, they are the spec. Compare our per-day rate against a competitor and read the fee lines, not just the headline. Aurora buyers who ask for the breakdown almost always spend less. See the FAQ page for more.
Can you give me three real Aurora price scenarios?
Yes. Here is how three common jobs price out. A weekend backyard graduation party in Aurora: one standard unit at the weekend rate near $250, plus a delivery fee around $125, one drop and one pickup, no weekly service needed for two days. A home renovation running six weeks: one standard unit on a monthly rate, with weekly service at $30 to $60 a visit and one delivery. A 30-worker construction crew for three months: two standard units to satisfy OSHA 1926.51(c), monthly billing, weekly service on each, and a handwashing station if the crew handles coatings. Add a roll-off dumpster and temporary fence and it becomes one invoice. For farms, OSHA 1928.110 requires a facility per 20 hand-labor workers within a quarter mile, which shapes agricultural restroom quotes too.
Where do you deliver around Aurora, and does distance change the price?
We cover Aurora and the towns around it, and yes, drive distance is part of the delivery fee. Close-in runs to North Aurora 5.2 miles northwest, Montgomery 6.0 miles southwest and Batavia 7.3 miles north cost less to reach than Naperville 8.3 miles east or St. Charles 12.6 miles north. Oswego is 7.6 miles southwest and Plainfield 12.6 miles south. Downers Grove 17.8 miles east is our longest common run and carries the most drive time. See the service areas page for the full map, or the dedicated pages for Naperville, Batavia and Oswego. Need a storage container or septic pumping on the same trip? We can bundle them. Start on the Aurora home page or the Aurora geo page, then hit contact with your address and dates.
How much does a porta potty cost for one day in Aurora?
A single standard unit for one day runs about $150, plus a delivery fee usually between $100 and $150. One-day drops cost the most per day because you still pay for a delivery and a pickup. Check the per-day pricing page for the full breakdown.
Is a weekly or monthly rental cheaper?
Per day, monthly wins. A standard unit on a monthly contract spreads the weekly service and single delivery across more days, so each day costs less than a one-week rental. A longer rental never costs more per day than a shorter one at First Choice Porta Potty.
What is included in the rental price?
The unit, the delivery and the pickup, plus the weekly service visit that pumps the tank and restocks paper. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users. Extra services or handwashing stations are separate lines.
Do deluxe and ADA units cost more than standard?
Yes. A deluxe flushable unit has a flush and sink, so it prices above standard. An ADA accessible unit is larger, with a 60 inch turning circle per ADA Standards section 304.3.1, and lands between the two on a weekly rate.
How much is a restroom trailer compared to a porta potty?
A lot more. A restroom trailer needs power and water and starts near $800 a day, while a standard porta potty is around $150. Trailers suit weddings and upscale events. See the trailer cost page.
Why do delivery fees change between towns?
Drive distance. A run to North Aurora at 5.2 miles costs less than Downers Grove at 17.8 miles east because the truck spends more time on the road. Your Aurora address sets the fee. See the service areas page.
Can I add a dumpster or fence to a porta potty order?
Yes, and it saves a trip. We can drop a roll-off dumpster, a temporary fence and a porta potty on one visit for a jobsite. Bundle it through the construction site services page or the quote form.
