How far is North Aurora from Aurora?
North Aurora lies 5.2 miles northwest of Aurora, roughly a 13-minute drive depending on traffic. That distance matters for delivery scheduling. We position our trucks to serve both cities efficiently, so North Aurora customers pay a service fee that reflects the drive time. When you call First Choice Porta Potty to request a porta potty rental in Aurora, mention North Aurora and we'll quote delivery cost upfront. The fee varies by rental duration: a weekend rental carries a higher delivery charge than a week-long job.
Placement also takes planning out here. North Aurora has its own municipal codes for temporary sanitation. Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city before we drop a unit. We handle those conversations with your local authority, but you'll want to know it's a step we take. Most commercial sites and construction jobs sit on private property, which skips that hassle entirely.
What size porta potty do I need for a North Aurora event or job?
The unit you need depends on how many people use it and for how long. On a construction site, OSHA 1926.51(c) specifies 1 toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer; 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 up. A single standard porta potty handles that lower range. For a North Aurora festival, wedding or corporate event, count your guests. One unit per 75 to 100 people is typical for an event running 4 to 8 hours. Longer events or crowds over 200 need multiple units or a deluxe flushable porta potty that's more comfortable for that duration.
If your North Aurora job has crew working around the clock, a restroom trailer beats multiple portables. Trailers offer privacy, running water and flushing toilets. Delivery cost runs higher because trailers need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, and North Aurora sites vary. A standard porta potty is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and fits tighter spaces. We rent ADA accessible units too. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent of clustered units, and never fewer than one, to be accessible.
Do porta potties need hand washing stations?
Yes, if your North Aurora crew is applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities where employees are engaged in applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides or other operations where harmful contaminants may be present. A handwashing station paired with your portable toilet meets that rule. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) specifies that washing facilities shall be provided with soap and with towels or a hand drying device. Hand sanitizer alone is not enough.
For general construction in North Aurora, potable water on site is also required. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) states an adequate supply of potable water shall be provided in all places of employment. If your job doesn't have running water hooked up yet, a portable sink keeps crews compliant. We deliver and service sinks on the same schedule as toilets. Most North Aurora contractors bundle a sink and a portable toilet when they call, which keeps costs down and compliance simple.
For longer North Aurora jobs, we offer septic pumping service if you're working on a property with a tank. Residential septic tanks are typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, but a busy construction site or rental property may need it sooner. Call us to assess your site and we'll tell you whether pumping is necessary before or during your rental.
