Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Mobile
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Mobile, Alabama, and the Mobile Bay communities around it. The units go out to construction sites along the I-10 and I-65 corridors, roof and siding repairs after a storm, church and school events, work near the docks, and the long run of parades and festivals that fills downtown each winter.
What you pay turns on which unit you choose, how many you need, how long you keep them, and how often a driver comes out to clean them. Below you'll find price ranges, unit counts to plan around, what the City of Mobile asks for before an event, and how fast we can get units to your site.
Those ranges are for a standard three-day rental, which is how most weekend events are booked. A build that runs for months is billed in four-week cycles instead, so the daily cost drops the longer you keep the units.
Season matters more in Mobile than in most places. Parade season packs downtown with crowds for weeks, and summer brings a wave of outdoor weddings and reunions. Those dates sell out first, and a late order can leave you with fewer choices.
Storm work is the other local swing. Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through November 30, with the busiest stretch around the middle of September. Roofing and tree crews lease units in volume after a storm, so demand can jump in a single week.
Your site plays a part too. A paved lot off Airport Boulevard is a quick drop. A lot behind a locked gate, a soft spot near a creek, or a narrow downtown street takes the driver longer, and that shows up in the quote. Your account manager will walk through all of it with you.

Request a Quote NowStart with how many people will use the units and for how long. These are the counts we plan around:
The City of Mobile sets its own floor for events. Its events guide says an event expecting fewer than 500 people needs at least one standard unit and one accessible unit, and the City suggests three or four units for most gatherings that size. It also asks for one accessible unit for every twenty standard units, and one inside every grouping of units.
Our porta potty calculator gives you a quick estimate. Share your guest count or crew size with your account manager and they'll confirm the mix.
Different jobs call for different units. You can see them side by side on our porta potty options page.
The Standard Porta Potty covers most work. It holds a toilet, a urinal, a paper holder, and hand sanitizer, and it suits job sites, yard projects, and casual gatherings.
The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty has a wider door, a flat entry, grab bars, and space to turn a wheelchair. Any event open to the public in Mobile needs at least one.
The Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty adds a foot-pump flush and better odor control. It's the usual pick for weddings and private parties.
The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink puts a sink, soap, and a mirror inside. Guests can wash up without walking to a separate station.
The Solar Porta Potty runs its light and fan on solar power. It works well on a wooded lot, a farm, or a dockside site with no outlet nearby.
The Handwashing Station is a free-standing sink with fresh water, soap, and paper towels. Put one beside every food area.
The Restroom Trailer has several stalls, running water, and air conditioning, which guests notice on a July afternoon in Mobile.
Still weighing it up? Describe your guests or your crew to your account manager, and they'll help you settle on the right mix.
A unit on private property, such as your own yard, a driveway, or a fenced job site, usually needs no City permit. Things change when the unit goes on public ground or becomes part of an event.
City streets and sidewalks: The City of Mobile Engineering Department runs a permitting unit that reviews and issues permits for work in the City right of way. Start there before you set a unit on a street, a verge, or a sidewalk.
State and U.S. highways: Several of Mobile's busiest roads are state routes, and work on those falls to the Alabama Department of Transportation. ALDOT requires a permit for any work on state right-of-way, and every one of those permits starts in a district office.
Events: Mobile treats a portable toilet as a temporary structure, so placing one can trigger an Event Services Application on its own. The same goes for any gathering of 100 or more people or any event that leans on City streets, parks, or staff. Applications are free to file, and the City asks for them no later than 120 days before your date. Call Event Services at 251-208-1552 with questions. Your site plan or route map has to show where the units will stand.
Street closures and block parties: Those permits come from the Mobile Police Department. The City's fee table lists $25.00 for a road closure permit plus staffing costs, $5.00 for a block party permit, and no charge for a public assembly permit.
Food vendors: Anyone serving food to the public needs a permit from the Mobile County Health Department, through its Environmental and Inspection Services Division at 251 North Bayou Street. The office number is 251-690-8116. State health rules say each food stand needs warm running water, soap, paper towels, and a bucket for the dirty water, and that waste water can never go into a street, a storm drain, or the ground. That's where a handwashing station earns its keep.
Not sure who controls your spot? Your account manager can point you to the right office before the truck rolls.
Set every unit on firm, level ground. Mobile's sandy soil and heavy afternoon rain can soften a spot fast, so steer clear of low ground that holds water. Give the truck a clear lane in, with no low limbs, tight gates, or parked cars blocking the way.
Keep units at least 15 feet from any food area and well away from wells, ditches, and storm drains. On a job site, place them within about 200 feet of the work so your crew isn't walking off the clock. At an event, spread the units out to keep lines short and set the accessible ones on a hard, flat path.
A standard rental includes a weekly visit. The driver pumps the tank, washes and sanitizes the inside, and restocks paper and sanitizer. Gulf heat and humidity are hard on a unit, so busy summer sites often do better with two visits a week. Your account manager can set the rhythm that fits your job.
Alabama health rules require every portable toilet to meet the national portable sanitation standard, and they require pumping often enough to keep a unit from becoming a nuisance. The hauler needs a sewage tank pumper permit from the local health department, which names the disposal point and the state license behind the truck. From your site the waste goes to a plant that accepts it. Mobile's own sewage is treated at the C.C. Williams and Wright Smith Jr. plants run by the Mobile Area Water and Sewer System.
One more local note: the City does not supply water for events, so plan your handwashing stations around the water you bring or arrange a temporary hydrant connection with the water system.

Most Mobile orders go out within 24 to 48 hours once they're booked. Three to five days of notice is better, and it gives us room to match the unit type to the job. For parade weekends, spring weddings, and the weeks right after a storm, book several weeks ahead.

Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty delivery across the City of Mobile, from downtown and the waterfront to West Mobile, Tillmans Corner, Theodore, Saraland, Semmes, Chickasaw, and Prichard. We cross the bay for jobs and events in Daphne, Spanish Fort, and Fairhope, and we run south through Baldwin County to Foley and the beach towns. Wherever your site sits, we plan delivery, cleaning, and pickup around your schedule.
A standard porta potty in Mobile averages $199 to $349 per unit, and an accessible unit averages $200 to $300. Deluxe units run $300 to $400, and a restroom trailer starts at $1,500. Your total depends on unit count, rental length, and service visits. Your account manager confirms every line in your free quote.
Plan on one unit for every 50 guests at an event of about four hours, then add 15 to 20 percent more if you're serving alcohol. Mobile asks for at least one standard unit and one accessible unit at any event under 500 people, and suggests three or four. Add a handwashing station near food.
Alabama follows the federal rule, so a crew of 20 or fewer needs at least one toilet. Above that, plan one toilet seat and one urinal for every 40 workers. Keep the units within a short walk of the work and book a weekly cleaning visit. Tell your account manager if the crew grows.
A standard rental includes one visit a week. The driver pumps the tank, scrubs and sanitizes the inside, and restocks paper and hand sanitizer. Mobile's heat and humidity are hard on a unit, so large crews and summer events often add a second visit. Your account manager can set the schedule.
Usually not. A unit in your own yard, driveway, or fenced job site needs no City permit in Mobile. You will need approval to place one on a street, a sidewalk, or in a park. A unit at an event counts as a temporary structure, which can trigger a City event application on its own.
A standard unit is sized for one person to step in and use. An accessible unit is wider, with a flat entry, a wide door, grab bars, and room to turn a wheelchair. Mobile wants one accessible unit for every twenty standard units, and one in each grouping of units at an event.
Weekend events are usually booked as a three-day rental, so a Saturday party costs about what a full weekend costs. A standard unit averages $199 to $349 and a deluxe flushing unit averages $300 to $400. Handwashing stations average $150 to $250. Your account manager confirms your dates and delivery window.
Tell us about your event or project and your zip code. We'll size the order, set a cleaning schedule that fits your dates, and give you a clear price on the call.
