Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Houma
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Houma, Louisiana, and the bayou communities of Terrebonne Parish. The work here has its own shape: construction and marine fabrication along the waterways, oilfield service yards and pipeline jobs, storm repair and elevation work on homes after a bad season, and a long run of festivals, fairs and parade events that fill the downtown and the parish parks.
Your quote reflects the model, the number of units, the booking length and the service pattern. Below are the ranges, the counts that apply here for crews and for crowds, the parish and state paperwork, and how quickly delivery is scheduled.
Geography moves a Houma quote more than most. Terrebonne Parish runs a long way south down the bayous, and a yard on a canal road an hour below town is a longer service run than a site off Main Street. That lands on each visit, not on the unit.
Heat and humidity are the second factor, and they are not cosmetic here. A unit worked hard through a Gulf Coast summer wants a tighter service interval than the same unit in a mild month, and the state expects the facilities kept clean and sanitary for the full crowd or crew, so plan the extra visit into the budget.
Booking length shapes the rest. Our ranges assume about three days on site, so a festival weekend and a short job price out level, while a fabrication or pipeline contract moves onto four-week pricing with servicing included. Guest-facing choices then sit on top: a flushing model or a trailer for a wedding or a krewe function costs more than a standard stall, and your account manager will say which the occasion needs.

Request a Quote NowLouisiana answers the crowd question in its own sanitary code and leaves the crew question to the national figure. Both answers matter in Houma, because the parish has adopted the state code as its own.
Choose by who uses the unit and for how long. Every model is described on the porta potty options page.
The Standard Porta Potty is the working unit on a parish yard or build: a private stall with toilet, urinal and sanitizer.
The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty is wider, with a level entry, grab bars and turning space, and it is the right single unit anywhere the public attends.
The Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty has a flushing bowl and much stronger odor control, which counts for a great deal in a Gulf Coast summer.
The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink puts the sink, soap and mirror inside the stall, useful at a reception where guests should not have to walk to wash.
The Solar Porta Potty runs its light and vent from a roof panel, which is the right answer on a remote canal-road site with no power.
The Handwashing Station is the freestanding unit the federal rule expects on a job site, the one a camp needs outside the toilets, and the one that belongs beside any food stall.
The Restroom Trailer arrives with several private stalls, running water and climate control, the right choice for guest-facing events and long contracts.
Your account manager will set the mix.
For a crew on private ground, no. Nothing is filed before a unit stands on a yard, a lot or a fenced site. Parish property and large gatherings are where the paperwork starts, and Houma has two separate clocks running at once.
Big gatherings need a health permit from the local health unit, and the application is due 30 days ahead. Written application has to reach the local health unit at least 30 days before a qualifying mass gathering, and the submission is detailed: an outline map of the site showing the location of all proposed toilets, plus the lavatory and bathing facilities, water sources, assembly and camping areas, food service areas, egress roads and refuse facilities, together with detailed drawings of the toilet facilities and the sewage disposal arrangements and an expected attendance figure. In plain terms your unit count, your models and your positions have to be fixed before the application is filed.
And there is a second, tighter clock most planners miss. The operator must hold the permit at least 72 hours before the starting date. Filing on day 30 and chasing approval in the final week is how an event ends up without a permit it has already paid for.
The parish has adopted the state sanitary code as its own. Terrebonne makes the Sanitary Code of the State of Louisiana controlling in all matters affecting public health in the city, with each ten days a violation continues treated as a separate offence. That is why these state requirements are enforced locally here.
Using parish property needs a Public Property Use Permit. Anyone hosting an event on, or otherwise using, parish property applies to the Planning and Zoning Department for that permit, lodges a refundable deposit against cleanup and repairs, and files at least 14 days before the date. The parish states plainly that approval is not guaranteed, and that a late application may simply be refused, with a non-refundable late charge if it is processed anyway.
That deposit also reaches a road closure for equipment. The same provision applies it to partial or full temporary closures of public roads for placing construction equipment or containers. The code names equipment rather than restrooms, so treat it as the route to ask about, and get the closure agreed before delivery day.
One live practical point, and it changes how early you should start. Terrebonne Parish reported a cyber incident on its network at the end of September 2026 and is running on a stripped-back website while it recovers. The permit pages, fee schedules and application forms are not on it; permitting is routed through an online portal instead. Looking the requirement up yourself is harder than usual right now, so allow extra time and let your account manager make the calls.
Who to call: the parish government on 985-868-5050 at 8026 Main Street, and Pollution Control on 985-873-6727 for discharge and disposal questions. The health permit goes through the local parish health unit, and your account manager will put you in front of the right desk.
Level ground, a firm approach for the truck and a sensible gap from food and drinking water cover the basics. On bayou ground firmness is the real constraint, because a soft shoulder after rain will not hold a loaded truck. Keep units inside roughly 200 feet of the crew, and keep a lane open to every unit once a crowd fills in.
Water is everywhere here, which is why the state writes the next rule as it does. Louisiana bars anyone from discharging, directly or indirectly, the contents of a portable toilet into any road, street, gutter, ditch, watercourse or body of water, or onto the ground surface. Nothing may be released on site, and a canal bank counts as much as a street. The service trucks carry the contents to a permitted treatment works, and your account manager confirms the destination in writing before delivery.
At an event the operator carries the clean and sanitary condition of the facilities for the maximum crowd expected, so the service schedule is part of the compliance. Louisiana also wants refuse collected from the assembly area each day and the grounds cleared within 24 hours of the end.
Weekly service is our baseline for a steady crew. Gulf heat, a hard-working yard or a guest-facing weekend moves that to twice weekly or a daily visit. Every visit removes the waste, sanitizes the seat and urinal, recharges the holding solution and restocks tissue, soap and towels.

Most Houma orders go out within 24 to 48 hours, and three to five days secures the exact models you want. Addresses far down the bayou can need an extra day, and equipment across the parish gets tight in festival season and after a storm.

Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty delivery throughout Houma and down the bayous of Terrebonne Parish, including Gray, Schriever, Bourg, Chauvin, Montegut and Dulac. The pages linked below are our nearest in southeast Louisiana. Three of the four sit northeast of the city toward the river parishes, because the marsh and open water south and west of Houma carry no other page of ours.
A standard unit is $199–$349 and an accessible one $200–$300. Deluxe flushing and sink models run $300–$400, solar units $500–$600, and restroom trailers start from $1,500. A handwashing station is $150–$250, and the federal rule expects one on a job site.
Louisiana's minimum for a qualifying gathering is one toilet per 200 people, which is a floor and not a comfortable number. We plan nearer one unit per 50 guests over four hours, adding 15 to 20 percent where drinks are served, and make a lone unit accessible.
Louisiana has no state table, so a Terrebonne site follows the federal figure: one toilet up to 20 workers, then one toilet seat and one urinal for every 40 through 199, and one of each per 50 above that. A washing facility is required as well.
Weekly is our baseline, and Gulf Coast heat usually argues for twice weekly on a working yard. Each visit removes the waste, sanitizes the seat and urinal, recharges the holding solution and restocks tissue and soap. Events generally want a daily visit.
Not for a crew on private ground. A gathering of 500 or more for four hours or longer outside a permanent venue needs a health permit filed 30 days ahead, and using parish property needs a public property use permit filed at least 14 days ahead.
A standard unit is one narrow stall with a toilet, a urinal and sanitizer. The accessible model is wider, swaps the step for a level threshold, and gives grab bars with clear turning space for a wheelchair. Where a single unit serves the public, make it the accessible one.
Our ranges assume about a three-day window, so a weekend is the ordinary case rather than a premium. Allow $199–$349 for a standard unit, $300–$400 for a deluxe flushing model and $150–$250 for a handwashing station. Ask about a Sunday evening collection.
