Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Moorhead
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty rentals in Moorhead, Minnesota, the Clay County city on the east bank of the Red River, directly across from Fargo. College move-in weekends, new housing on the south and east sides, flood protection and road projects, farm and grain work, riverfront festivals and family events at city shelters keep construction crews and event organizers in Moorhead renting portable toilets.
A Moorhead order is priced by the unit, the crowd, the length of the rental and the service schedule. Below are price ranges, counting help, how the City handles park and street events on one application, what Moorhead's shelters already offer, and the Minnesota rule that toilets on winter construction sites be heated.
Moorhead prices start from a three-day rental. A family reunion at a park shelter fits inside it, while a housing project or a levee job runs for months on a monthly rate with service built in.
Red River Valley winters are the main Moorhead cost factor. A crew working outdoors from November to March needs heated units or a heated trailer under state rules, and that costs more than a summer unit.
Spring is the second. Snowmelt and high water can close low ground near the river, so a Moorhead unit may need to move or wait, and building that into the schedule avoids extra trips.
Accessible units, sinks, handwashing and extra service are itemized, so your account manager can give clear, upfront pricing on a Moorhead order.

Minnesota runs an OSHA-approved state plan that covers private employers and state and local government workers. Its construction privy rule says privies shall be provided on all construction and engineering projects, placed inside heated buildings where possible, and otherwise heated to at least a 1,300 watt heater's output. On the Minnesota side of the river that rule applies to every crew, which is worth knowing if your company also works in North Dakota.
Start with the porta potty calculator, and your account manager will fit the Moorhead count to your site.
Wind, cold and crowd size steer most Moorhead orders. Look at every option on our porta potty options page.
Give your account manager the dates and the address, and the Moorhead order will match them.
A unit on your own Moorhead property or a fenced job site is usually a private matter. Parks, streets and alcohol bring in the City.
One form for events. The City's licenses and permits page lists a single special event permit covering amplified sound, street closings, park reservations and alcohol possession and consumption. So if your gathering closes a street or uses a park, the City will already know where your units are going.
Park shelters. Moorhead's shelter page takes reservations from May 1 to September 30 through a Special Event/Shelter Application. The Gooseberry Park large shelter seats up to 250 people and the M.B. Johnson Park large shelter up to 200, and both list restrooms. At those sizes the building restrooms alone fall well short of the 50-guest rule, so a large reunion should add units. Alcohol is not allowed at Gooseberry, and at M.B. Johnson it needs a City permit, insurance and a deposit.
The city code. Moorhead publishes its code through an outside publisher that asks automated readers like ours not to visit, so we have not reviewed the Moorhead ordinances. Ask the City Clerk about any rule before you place a unit on city land.
Your account manager can help you plan around the City's event form for a Moorhead gathering.
Set units on firm, level ground with a clear truck lane. Keep the lane plowed in winter, and in spring keep units off low ground near the Red River and drainage ditches. Turn the door away from the prevailing wind.
Keep units at least 15 feet from food and away from storm drains and private wells. On a Moorhead job site, place them within about 200 feet of the crew. At a shelter event, put the accessible unit on pavement near parking.
A standard Moorhead visit pumps the tank, washes and sanitizes the cabin and restocks supplies, usually once a week. A busy festival weekend may need more, so tell your account manager your busiest Moorhead days.

Most confirmed Moorhead orders are delivered in 24 to 48 hours. Three to five days of notice is better, and college move-in and summer festival weekends in the Fargo-Moorhead area book early.

Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster serves Moorhead and the surrounding Red River Valley, including Dilworth, Glyndon, Sabin, Barnesville, Hawley, and Fargo and West Fargo across the river. For a shelter reunion or a levee project, delivery, service and collection are scheduled around your plans.
Over three days in Moorhead, a standard unit averages $199–$349. ADA units come in at $200–$300, deluxe units at $300–$400, and restroom trailers from $1,500. Heated winter units cost more, and your account manager prepares a free Moorhead quote for your dates.
Plan one unit for each 50 guests across four hours, and add 15 to 20 percent for alcohol. A full Moorhead shelter of 200 or more needs extra units beyond the park restrooms. Your account manager can help you set the Moorhead number.
Minnesota adopts the federal count: one toilet for up to 20 workers, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers. On the Minnesota side of the river, each privy must be heated in cold weather. Your account manager sizes a Moorhead site for both.
The usual Moorhead baseline is a weekly visit with pumping, cleaning, sanitizing and restocking. Large crews and festival weekends often need more. Your account manager arranges a Moorhead service plan around your heaviest days.
Usually not on private Moorhead land. Park reservations, street closings and alcohol all go through the City's special event permit, and other city land is a question for the City Clerk. Your account manager can help you sort out a Moorhead plan.
A standard unit is a compact cabin with a step up. An ADA unit has level entry, grab bars and room for a wheelchair to turn. Plan about one accessible unit in twenty at a public Moorhead event, and your account manager can confirm the mix.
A Moorhead weekend is covered by the three-day base rate. A standard unit is $199–$349, a deluxe flushing unit $300–$400, and a handwashing station $150–$250. Your account manager confirms the Moorhead drop-off and pickup times with the total.
Tell us about your event or project and your zip code. If you are reserving a City shelter, tell us which one and how many guests, and we will help you size the order.
From the first call through spring thaw or the last day of a festival, your Prime Dumpster account manager keeps the Moorhead order on schedule.
