Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Olympia
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Olympia, Washington, and the south Puget Sound towns beside it. Construction crews on housing and state office projects, public events on the waterfront and around the Capitol, park weddings, farm and forestry work in the hills west of town, and long stretches of rainy-season road work all keep portable toilets moving here.
Your total comes down to the unit type, how many you need, how long they stay, and how often a truck services them. Below you will find price ranges for Olympia, unit counts that match Washington rules, the permits the City and the state ask for, and how to get a fast delivery.
Every range you see above covers a standard three-day rental of a single unit. That matches how most Olympia weekends run, so a Saturday event and a Friday through Sunday booking usually come out close to the same.
Longer projects work differently. A job site is normally billed in four-week cycles with a weekly cleaning visit, which suits a build that runs from one wet season into the next.
Unit counts push the number more than anything else. Washington asks job sites for more toilets than the federal minimum, so a crew that would need one unit elsewhere often needs two or three here. Your account manager will work that out with you before you commit.
Site access is the last piece. A drop on a paved downtown lot near Percival Landing is simple. A muddy hillside lot, a gated state project, or a spot past a narrow gravel drive costs more to reach and service through a Thurston County winter.

Food changes the plan again. Under the state food code, a temporary food stand needs a handwashing setup with warm running water within 25 feet of where food is prepared or served, so pair your food area with a handwashing station.
Our porta potty calculator gets you a working number in a minute. Share your crew size or guest list with your account manager and they will finish the math against the Washington table.
Match the unit to the people using it. You can see every model side by side on our porta potty options page.
The Standard Porta Potty is the everyday unit: a toilet, a urinal, a paper holder, and hand sanitizer. It fits crews, small parties, and home projects.
The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty has a wide door, level entry, grab bars, and turning room for a wheelchair. Any event the public can attend should have one.
The Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty adds a flush and better odor control, which is what most couples want at an outdoor wedding.
The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink puts a sink, soap, and a mirror inside the unit, so guests never hunt for a place to wash up.
The Solar Porta Potty lights itself and runs its fan on solar power. On short, gray Olympia winter days that inside light is worth more than it sounds.
The Handwashing Station is a stand-alone sink with fresh water, soap, and towels. Put one beside every food booth.
The Restroom Trailer offers several stalls, running water, and heat, and it lifts a wedding or a company party well above a row of single units.
If you are torn between two setups, describe the day to your account manager and they will recommend a mix.
On private ground, such as your driveway, a fenced job site, or a farm, you do not need a City permit to set a unit. Public space is where the paperwork starts, and Olympia has an extra wrinkle: some of the best-known open space downtown belongs to the state, not the City.
City streets and sidewalks: Occupying the City right-of-way runs through Olympia's permit portal as a civil engineering permit. Any continual occupation of 30 days or more also needs a right-of-way lease agreement. Call the City permit desk at 360-753-8314 to confirm what your spot needs.
Community festivals: The City asks for a permit for any outdoor community festival on City property or right-of-way. The event has to be open to the public and free, with a non-profit or government sponsor, and the packet is due at least 60 days ahead with insurance and any health department approvals attached.
City parks: For a park booking, Percival Landing, or The Olympia Center that is not a festival, call Olympia Parks, Arts and Recreation at 360-753-8380.
The Capitol Campus: Sylvester Park, Heritage Park, Marathon Park, and the Capitol grounds are state property. The state events office requires a permit for any outdoor event above 75 people, for any event that needs set-up, and for any event handing out food. Its application asks directly for your portable toilet plan. The fee is $75 for a private event and $65 for a commercial one, with no fee for a public or free speech event, and staff normally review inside two business days. Reach the events office at 360-902-8881.
Food vendors: Vendors need a temporary food event permit from Thurston County Public Health and Social Services, filed at least 14 days out. If you are running the event, your coordinator checklist is due 30 days out.
Not sure whose ground you are standing on? Your account manager can help you sort the City side from the state side before you book.
Set every unit on firm, level ground. Olympia soil holds water for months, and a unit that sat flat in August can lean by November. Gravel, a plywood pad, or a paved corner all beat bare lawn in the wet season.
Leave the service truck a clear lane. We need room to pull close, so watch for soft shoulders, low limbs, tight alley turns, and cars parked along a narrow downtown block. On event days, tell us where barricades will sit so the driver is not locked out.
Keep units at least 15 feet from food service and well away from storm drains, ditches, and the shoreline. Budd Inlet runoff is closely watched here, so choose a spot where nothing can wash toward a drain. On a job site, put units within about 200 feet of the work.
A standard rental includes a weekly service visit. The driver pumps the tank, cleans and disinfects the inside, and restocks paper and sanitizer. Larger crews, warm weeks, and multi-day events usually want two visits or more.
The tank contents count as septage under Washington rules, and only a pumper certified by Thurston County Environmental Health may pump and dispose of it. Disposal sites are covered by the state biosolids permit program. Your account manager can confirm your service days and answer questions about the handling chain.

Most Olympia orders are delivered inside 24 to 48 hours. Three to five days of lead time is better, and a summer weekend on the waterfront or a legislative-season event downtown deserves several weeks.
Five habits keep your delivery smooth:
Client Reviews
Prime Dumpster arranges porta potty delivery across Olympia and the rest of the south Puget Sound, including Tumwater, Lacey, Hawks Prairie, Yelm, Rainier, Tenino, Rochester, Steamboat Island, Boston Harbor, and the Nisqually valley. Whether the job sits downtown near the Capitol, out on a wooded lot off Mud Bay Road, or on a farm south of town, we plan delivery, service, and pickup around your dates.
A standard porta potty averages $199–$349 per unit, and an ADA-compliant unit averages $200–$300. Deluxe units run $300–$400, solar units $500–$600, and restroom trailers start at $1,500. Your unit count, rental length, and cleaning schedule set the final number. Your account manager confirms it in your free quote.
Use 1 unit per 50 guests for a four-hour event, and add 15 to 20 percent when alcohol is served. A 200-guest wedding works out to four units, plus an accessible unit and a handwashing station by the food. Longer events and hot afternoons both call for more.
Washington sets a stricter table than the federal rule. One toilet covers 1 to 10 workers, two cover 11 to 25, three cover 26 to 40, four cover 41 to 60, and five cover 61 to 80. Above that, add one for every 20 more workers. Your account manager will size the order to your crew.
A weekly service visit is standard. The driver pumps the tank, washes and disinfects the inside, and refills paper and hand sanitizer. Heavy crews, long events, and warm stretches usually need two visits a week or more. Tell your account manager when your site is busiest and we will schedule around it.
No. A unit on your own driveway, yard, or fenced job site in Olympia does not need a City permit. Permission is needed for a sidewalk, a street, a City park, or the state Capitol grounds, and a festival on City property has its own packet. Your account manager can point you to the right desk.
A standard unit is a single compact stall. An ADA unit is wider, with a ramp-free entry, grab bars, and floor space for a wheelchair to turn. Public events should include one in every group of units. Units used only by a construction crew are exempt from that requirement.
Weekend bookings use the same three-day basis as the ranges above, so a standard unit runs $199–$349 and a deluxe flushing unit runs $300–$400. Add $150–$250 for a handwashing station. Your account manager will confirm drop-off and pickup times along with your weekend price.
Tell us about your event or project and your zip code. We will size the order to the Washington rules, set a cleaning schedule that fits the weather, and give you a straight price.
Your Prime Dumpster account manager handles the details, from unit count and service schedule to permit contacts and delivery timing, so you can focus on your event or project.
