Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Lafayette
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Lafayette, Louisiana, and the Acadiana communities around it. Subdivision and commercial construction along the Evangeline Thruway and Ambassador Caffery, oilfield and pipeline yards, Mardi Gras parade routes, Festival International weekends, crawfish boils and backyard events, and flood recovery work all keep portable toilets busy here.
What you pay depends on the unit type, how many you need, how long they stay, and how often a truck comes out to service them. Below you'll find local price ranges, how to size your order, which Lafayette office handles which permit, and what to expect on delivery day.
Those ranges reflect a standard three-day rental, the way most Lafayette weekend events get quoted. A single Saturday and a three-day festival run usually come out at a similar number.
Rental length is the main variable. A long construction job is priced in monthly cycles with a fixed service plan, and the daily cost drops a long way below an event rate.
Acadiana heat and humidity drive the rest. Summer crews and all-day festivals often need two service visits a week rather than one, and that is money well spent on comfort and on keeping the units from becoming a complaint.
Access matters as well. A unit on a paved lot downtown is a quick drop. A unit on a soggy batture lot, in a cane field, or behind a locked yard gate takes the driver longer. Tell your account manager how the truck will reach the unit and the quote will match reality.

Request a Quote NowLouisiana does not publish its own toilet ratio for job sites or events, so the federal count is what governs here. Use these numbers.
There is no Louisiana rule that beats those numbers, so treat them as the floor and not the target. Our porta potty calculator will get you close, and your account manager can adjust for hours, heat, and alcohol.
Choose by who will use the unit and how long the day runs. Everything is laid out on our porta potty options page.
The Standard Porta Potty is the everyday pick for job sites and casual gatherings, with a toilet, a urinal, a paper holder, and sanitizer.
The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty adds a wide door, a flat entry, grab bars, and turning room for a wheelchair. Include one in every group at a public event.
The Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty gives guests a flush and a cleaner feel, which is worth it at weddings and receptions.
The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink puts a sink, soap, and a mirror inside the unit. Families and food-heavy events appreciate it.
The Solar Porta Potty runs its light and fan on solar power, which suits pipeline yards, field sites, and evening events with no power nearby.
The Handwashing Station carries clean water, soap, and towels. Put one beside every food booth and boil setup.
The Restroom Trailer brings several stalls, running water, and air conditioning, which guests notice in a Louisiana summer.
Still working out the mix? Give your account manager the headcount and the hours and they'll build the order.
A unit on your own property, for your own project, generally needs no permit here. The rules start when the unit or the crowd reaches a public street.
Private property: keep the unit on your lot, off the sidewalk, and clear of any drainage ditch or coulee. Nothing published by Lafayette Consolidated Government sets a screening rule or a time limit for a unit on private land.
Street closures for events: a non-construction event that closes a street uses the street closure permit application, filed with the Department of Traffic, Roads and Bridges at 101 Jefferson Street, Suite 202. It has to be in 14 days before the event. The department writes a traffic control plan for your event at no cost, and you supply and maintain the signs and barricades it calls for. Call 337-291-8531.
Construction lane closures: work in the road uses the separate lane or road closure permit from the same office, so ask for the construction form rather than the event one.
The waste management plan is the one people miss. Lafayette requires an event waste management plan whenever a street closure, traffic plan, noise control, or public right-of-way is reserved for a non-construction event, whenever waste will be generated, and whenever food or alcohol is served. No road closure or noise permit is issued until that plan is approved. Events held entirely inside a public park, with no use of the right-of-way, are exempt.
What the plan asks for matters to your units. Bin stations have to sit near food and drink, at entries and exits, and close to toilets, with trash cans no more than 45 feet apart. Used wastewater has to be stored in a sealed container and removed for off-site disposal, and it may never go down a storm drain. That last line is the one to read before you set up a handwashing station. Questions go to Public Works Environmental Quality at 337-291-5625.
Alcohol: the permit Lafayette calls a special event permit is the temporary alcoholic beverage permit. Reach that office at 337-291-8675 if you are serving.
Not sure who to call first? Your account manager can point you to the right desk before delivery.
Placement in Acadiana means thinking about water and heat before anything else.
Set units on firm, level ground with a clear approach for a pump truck. Low ground around the Vermilion River and the coulees holds water for days after a heavy rain, and a soaked lot will keep a truck out. On a parade route, keep units behind the barricade line and on pavement where you can.
Keep units well away from food service, drinking water, and any storm inlet. Lafayette's own event rules are blunt about wastewater staying out of the storm drain, and the same logic applies on a job site. On a construction site, keep units within a short walk of the work so your crew isn't losing time in the heat.
Weekly service is the baseline. The driver pumps the tank, cleans the inside, and restocks paper and sanitizer. Summer crews and festival weekends usually justify a second visit, and your account manager can build that into the plan from the start.
Louisiana regulates where the waste goes. Portable toilet waste is named in the state's sewage sludge rules, and the company responsible for hauling it must hold a sewage sludge hauler registration from the Department of Environmental Quality. The same rules govern where that waste may be taken and the reporting that follows it. Lafayette Utilities System provides the city's wastewater service alongside electric and water. Your account manager can confirm your service schedule and where your waste goes.

Most Lafayette orders can be delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Three to five days of notice lets us match units to the site and plan the service route. Carnival season and Festival International weekends clear out event inventory across Acadiana, so book those several weeks ahead.

Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty delivery throughout Lafayette and the surrounding Acadiana communities, including Broussard, Youngsville, Scott, Carencro, Duson, Milton, Maurice, Breaux Bridge, St. Martinville, Opelousas, and Abbeville. Whether your site is a downtown parade route, a new subdivision, or a field job out toward the basin, we plan delivery, servicing, and pickup around your dates.
A standard unit in Lafayette averages $199–$349, and an accessible unit averages $200–$300. Deluxe flushing and sink units average $300–$400, and restroom trailers start at $1,500. Your total depends on the number of units, the rental length, and the service schedule. Your account manager confirms it in your free quote.
Plan 1 unit per 50 guests for about four hours, and add 15 to 20 percent more if alcohol is served. Louisiana publishes no event ratio of its own, so that planning number is the one to use. Spread units along a parade route, add a handwashing station near food, and include at least one accessible unit.
Louisiana runs no state plan, so federal worker-safety rules govern a Lafayette job site. A crew of 20 or fewer needs one facility. Above that it is one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers, and one per 50 past 200. Mobile crews with transport to nearby restrooms are exempt. Your account manager will size it.
Weekly service is standard. The driver pumps the tank, cleans and sanitizes the interior, and restocks paper and hand sanitizer. Lafayette's heat and humidity push many crews and event organizers to two visits a week through the summer. Your account manager can set the rhythm around your busiest days.
Usually not. A unit on your own Lafayette lot for your own project needs no permit. Keep it off the sidewalk and clear of the ditch or coulee. Closing a street for an event is different: that application goes to the Department of Traffic, Roads and Bridges 14 days before the date, with a waste management plan attached.
A standard unit suits one person stepping in and out. An accessible unit is wider, has a flat entry with no step up, adds grab bars, and leaves room for a wheelchair to turn. Public events need at least one in each group of units. Units used only by a construction crew are exempt from that rule.
A standard unit averages $199–$349, and weekend rentals are quoted on a three-day basis. A Saturday-only event usually costs close to what the full weekend costs. Flushing units, sink units, and restroom trailers cost more. Your account manager will confirm your weekend total and the delivery window.
