Find Sustainable Porta Potty
in Salt Lake City
At Prime Dumpster, we provide porta potty rentals across Salt Lake City, Utah, where two different offices decide your order before a single unit leaves the yard. Construction crews along the Interstate 15 corridor, event organizers at the Utah State Fairpark and the Rose Park and Glendale neighborhoods in the 84116 area all work to the same pair of rules: the county health department wants a permit from a far smaller crowd than the state count table expects, and the city permits anything that lands on public ground.
What you pay here comes down to how many units you need, how long they stay, how often a truck returns and how easily that truck can reach the door. The sections below set out the price ranges, the two separate count answers for job sites and gatherings, the permit offices that actually hold the decision, and how placement and servicing work between the Jordan River and the foothills.
The biggest swing on a Salt Lake City quote is the gap between a job site order and a gathering order. A crew of fifteen framing houses in Westpointe needs one unit. A thousand people at a four hour fundraiser need eight, and that jumps again where beer is poured. Your account manager prices both from the same table, but the starting number is nothing alike.
Service frequency is the second Salt Lake City lever. Utah expects a gathering unit emptied every day, which means a truck visit built into the rental rather than bolted on afterward. A quiet job site in the Avenues can usually sit on one weekly visit through most of the year.
Access is the third. Downtown blocks near Washington Square have loading restrictions and metered curb, while the industrial streets west of the rail yard have room for a truck to pull straight in. Tell your account manager which one you have, because a tight approach costs more to service than an open one.

Request a Quote NowJob sites in Utah answer to the federal worker sanitation table, which has three steps and not two. Twenty workers or fewer calls for one facility. Above twenty you provide one toilet seat and one urinal for every forty workers. At two hundred workers and above that eases to one toilet seat and one urinal per fifty. Utah has not written a construction restroom table of its own, so the federal steps govern a Salt Lake City site outright.
Handwashing is federal too, and it applies everywhere. Lavatories have to be made available in all places of employment, with water that is either hot and cold or tepid. The only relief is for a mobile crew with transport ready to nearby washing facilities.
Gatherings are where Utah writes its own rules, and where the county moves first:
So the permit bites at five hundred people while the count table bites at a thousand. That is not a contradiction, and it catches organizers out constantly. The Prime Dumpster calculator will give you a working figure, and your account manager will square it with the health department before you file.
The Standard Porta Potty covers most Salt Lake City work: a framing crew, a driveway tear-out, a street fair booth row. The ADA-Compliant Porta Potty is the one the state accessibility share is counted in, so it belongs on every public gathering layout here, however small.
For a reception at a foothill venue or a corporate date downtown, the Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty gives guests a flush and fresh bowl water. The Deluxe Porta Potty with Sink keeps washing inside the unit, which suits a tight plaza footprint.
A Solar Porta Potty lights itself where there is no power, which matters on canyon trailheads and evening events in the parks. A Handwashing Station is how most job sites and food rows here meet their washing duty, and the state counts one per ten toilets at a gathering. For a long build or a formal event, the Restroom Trailer brings separate stalls with heat and cooling. Our porta potty options page shows the full lineup.
On your own property, no. A unit inside your yard, driveway or fenced site in Salt Lake City takes no city permit at all, and the city says plainly that it only permits activities held on Salt Lake City public property.
Public ground in Salt Lake City is another story. The city's event permit office handles parks, roads, sidewalks and plazas, and that office is the route for anything guest-facing. The windows are tight at both ends. The earliest you may file a special event application is 364 days before your start date, and the latest is 30 days before. Block party requests close 14 days out. The event permits page lists a $151.00 application fee for a special event or film permit and $8.00 for a demonstration, with block parties free to apply. Reach that office on 801-972-7815.
Placing a unit at the curb outside an event is the awkward case. The city's public way permit is written for construction that takes place in the public way, naming streets, sidewalks, curb and gutter, driveway approaches and utility excavations. Its separate curbside guidance covers dumpsters and moving containers, down to four lighted barricades at each corner. Neither one names a portable restroom. An administrative route may still exist behind the counter, so never treat a curb position as settled. Ask the engineering office on 801-535-6630 first. Your account manager will make that call with you and will not promise you a street spot nobody has confirmed.
Pick firm, level ground with the door swinging clear of foot traffic, and keep the unit off the park strip, which belongs to the city. Give the service truck one straight approach, within hose reach of the Salt Lake City position. A unit parked behind a locked gate in Poplar Grove gets skipped, and a skipped visit is the complaint we hear most.
Gatherings in Utah carry siting rules with real numbers behind them. Keep portable toilets at least 100 feet from any food service operation and no more than 300 feet from the grandstand or the activity. Secure every unit against wind and vandalism with tie-downs or anchors, which is not optional in a valley that gets canyon gusts. Wastewater has to come out at least once every 24 hours, and every unit has to be serviced and taken away within 48 hours of the close. A gathering itself may not run beyond 16 consecutive days without the health officer agreeing.
Weekly service is the baseline on a Salt Lake City job site: tank pumped, unit washed out, deodorizer recharged, paper and sanitizer restocked. Summer heat in the valley and any food vendor push that to twice weekly or daily. Utah requires the liquid waste hauler serving a gathering to hold a permit from the local health department, so Prime Dumpster sends waste out through a permitted hauler to an approved treatment works. Your account manager keeps the service record on the account where the health department can see it.

Most standard orders here go out inside a day or two. The squeeze comes in festival season and during the spring building push, when accessible units and trailers go first.
Client Reviews
Our Salt Lake City routes reach down the valley and up into Davis County, covering South Salt Lake, Millcreek, Murray, Holladay, Taylorsville, West Valley City, North Salt Lake, Bountiful, Midvale and Cottonwood Heights, along with the porta potty service areas listed below.
In Salt Lake City a standard unit is $199 to $349, with accessible units at $200 to $300. Deluxe flushing and sink models sit at $300 to $400, solar units $500 to $600, handwashing stations $150 to $250, and restroom trailers open at $1,500. Your account manager settles the final figure once unit count and service schedule are fixed.
Below a thousand guests Utah publishes no table, so work from one unit per fifty guests across about four hours. At a thousand guests for four hours the state asks for eight toilets. Add forty percent with alcohol, and keep at least one accessible unit. Your account manager settles the Salt Lake City figure with you.
The federal table governs Utah sites. Up to twenty workers on a Salt Lake City site, one facility. Above twenty you provide one toilet seat and one urinal per forty workers, and at two hundred workers and above that becomes one per fifty. Handwashing is required at every site regardless of crew size.
Weekly is the job site baseline, with the tank pumped, the unit washed out, deodorizer recharged and supplies restocked. Utah is stricter at gatherings, where wastewater must be removed at least once every twenty four hours. Valley heat and food vendors usually justify more frequent visits either way.
No. A unit on your own yard, driveway or fenced site in Salt Lake City needs no city permit, because the city permits activities on public property only. Keep it behind your property line and clear of the sidewalk and the park strip. A guest-facing gathering may still need county health approval.
A standard unit is the compact model that fits a narrow driveway or a booth row. An accessible unit is wider, has no step at the door, carries grab bars and leaves clear floor for a wheelchair to turn. Utah counts it toward the five percent accessible share at a gathering.
Weekend bookings quote from the standard $199 to $349 range, since delivery and collection cost the same whether a unit stays two days or two months. A two day rental therefore lands near the upper end. Ask your account manager for the current weekend figure and service plan.
Tell us about your event or project and your zip code. If your headcount is anywhere near five hundred, say so first, because the county permit clock starts well before the state count table does.
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.
