Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Lakewood
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Lakewood, California, the planned Los Angeles County city laid out between Long Beach and the San Gabriel River. The work here is steady rather than dramatic: residential construction and additions across thousands of post-war homes, commercial tenant improvements around the Civic Center and Del Amo Boulevard, and a busy public event calendar of park concerts, carnivals and festivals that the City runs through the year.
Lakewood is also one of the few cities that names portable toilets in its own event permit conditions, and Los Angeles County publishes an actual table for the count. Below are the ranges, both of those numbers, and how quickly delivery can be scheduled.
For a Lakewood event the County table does most of the work on quantity, and the quantity is higher than most people guess. A four-hour gathering of fewer than 500 people already calls for six toilets, and four hours at 2,000 people calls for eight. Those are the numbers to budget from.
Daily servicing is the second cost, and in Lakewood it is a permit condition rather than a preference. The City writes maintenance of the sanitation facilities into the conditions of its temporary special event permit, so a two-day event is quoted with two service visits rather than one.
Handwashing scales with the toilets, not with the crowd. Los Angeles County wants one handwashing sink for every four toilets, stocked with liquid soap, single-use towels and a bin for the used towels. On an eight-toilet layout that is two stations, before you count anything a food vendor needs.
Job site work prices differently and more simply. Standard stalls plus a washing station covers a residential addition or a commercial tenant improvement, and the booking length does the rest, with our ranges assuming roughly three days and longer projects moving onto monthly terms.

Request a Quote NowLakewood is unusually well served by published figures. One comes from the state, the other from the County.
Our porta potty calculator gives you a figure, and your account manager will square it with the County table before the permit goes in.
Choose on audience, duration and how much sun the spot takes. Every model is described on the porta potty options page.
The Standard Porta Potty is the everyday Lakewood work unit: one lockable stall with a toilet, urinal, paper holder and sanitizer.
The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty enters flat and gives grab bars with turning space, and it belongs in every group the public uses at Mayfair or Bolivar Park.
The Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty flushes and holds odor down across a long warm afternoon, which is what a carnival or a quinceanera wants.
The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink carries a sink, soap and mirror inside the stall, and it helps most where food trucks are drawing lines.
The Solar Porta Potty runs its light and vent from a roof panel, useful for an evening event or a lot without temporary power.
The Handwashing Station is the free-standing sink that satisfies both the state rule and the County's one-per-four-toilets figure.
The Restroom Trailer brings several private flushing stalls with running water and climate control for a guest-facing Lakewood date.
Give your account manager the attendance and the hours and they will size the whole set.
On private property, no. Lakewood requires nothing to place a unit on a lot, a driveway or a fenced work site. Events are where the paperwork starts, and the City has a new permit with real teeth.
Fifty attendees triggers a City permit. Lakewood's temporary special event permit covers short-term, periodic and seasonal events expected to draw fifty or more people to promotional and sales events, commercial entertainment and recreation, or cultural and educational exhibits, held outdoors or in vacant tenant space. Events under fifty a day, and events on a residential lot with a primary residential use, are generally exempt.
The permit names portable toilets in its conditions. Among the conditions the Director may impose is a requirement to maintain the sanitation facilities, described in the City's own words as porta potties, daily, and to identify any hydration stations. Treat daily servicing as part of the deal rather than an upgrade.
Lead time depends on history. A first-time event at a given location must be filed, accepted and complete at least 60 days ahead so other departments and outside agencies can comment. A recurring event previously reviewed at the same place needs 45 days. The Community Development Director decides, and may refer an application to the Planning and Environment Commission for a public hearing.
The County runs the health side. Where more than two food booths or three or more permitted mobile food facilities take part, Los Angeles County Public Health requires an event organizer permit at $358, filed at least 30 days out. Inside 14 days there is an expedited charge, and an application arriving two or fewer business days before the event is not accepted at all. The Community Events Program can be reached on 626-430-5320. Your account manager can put the unit count, the sink count and the servicing schedule in writing for both files.
Set units on firm, level ground with a straight hose pull, at least 15 feet from food service and within roughly 200 feet of the people using them. In a park, keep them off turf irrigation and clear of the fire lane. On a street event, the City consults Public Works about traffic and pedestrian control, storm water drainage and waste collection, so the layout is reviewed rather than assumed.
Los Angeles County expects a sewage transport vehicle to be available on call to service portable toilets and to remove liquid waste from any sinks with holding tanks, and it requires holding tanks with 50 percent more capacity than the potable water tanks they serve. In practice that means the servicing plan is part of the event plan, with a truck identified before the gates open.
California controls the servicing trade statewide. It is unlawful to carry on the business of cleaning chemical toilets, or to dispose of the cleanings, without an unrevoked registration from the local health officer. The application must name the exact disposal location, and every registration becomes void at the end of the calendar year, so a January check is worth making a habit.
Each visit pumps the tank, disinfects the whole interior and restocks paper, soap and towels. A Lakewood job site is usually weekly, twice weekly in heavy use, and a permitted City event is daily by condition. Your account manager confirms the interval and the collection time before anything is delivered.

Most Lakewood orders are on site within 24 to 48 hours, and three to five days secures the exact models. On event work the two permit clocks, 60 or 45 days with the City and 30 days with the County, decide the date long before we do.
Five habits that keep a Lakewood delivery on schedule:
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty delivery throughout Lakewood and the surrounding southeast Los Angeles County communities, including Hawaiian Gardens, Artesia, Signal Hill, Lynwood and La Palma. Our nearest other porta potty pages are Long Beach at about 3 road miles northwest, Bellflower roughly 4 northeast, Paramount 4 north, Downey about 6 north and Cerritos 7 east, which puts a very dense service area within a few minutes of the yard.
Standard units are $199–$349 and accessible units $200–$300. Flushing and in-stall sink models run $300–$400, solar units $500–$600, handwashing stations $150–$250, and trailers start from $1,500. For an event, the County table usually drives the quantity, and quantity drives the total.
Los Angeles County publishes a table by attendance and hours. Under 500 people over four hours needs six toilets, 2,000 over four hours needs eight, and 5,000 over six hours reaches thirty. Add one handwashing sink for every four toilets, plus separate facilities for food employees.
California requires one toilet for every 20 employees of each sex, plus one washing station per 20 workers standing outside the unit. Under five employees a single all-gender unit is enough, and only then may the washing facility sit inside it. Lakewood adds no rule of its own.
A Lakewood job site is usually weekly, or twice weekly in heavy use. A permitted City event is daily, because the temporary special event permit conditions require the sanitation facilities to be maintained daily. Every visit pumps the tank, disinfects the interior and restocks paper, soap and towels.
No. A unit on private ground in Lakewood needs no permit, including a driveway, a yard or a fenced job site. An event drawing fifty or more people needs a temporary special event permit from the City, and a food event may also need a County organizer permit.
A standard unit is one narrow stall with toilet, urinal and sanitizer. The accessible model is wider, enters with no step, and gives grab bars and clear floor space to turn a wheelchair. Plan at least one into any group of units the public can reach.
A weekend sits inside our three-day assumption, so there is no premium on the unit. Allow $199–$349 for a standard unit, $300–$400 for a flushing model and $150–$250 for a handwashing station. A permitted two-day event will carry two service visits rather than one.
Tell us about your event or project and your zip code. We will count from the County table, add the sinks it calls for, and set the daily servicing the City permit expects.
