Why Your Event Porta Potty Arrives Friday and Leaves Monday
First-time renters are often surprised that a Saturday party means a Friday drop-off and a Monday pickup. Here is why, and why it works in your favor.
Why are event porta potties delivered the day before?
Event porta potties are delivered the day before because delivery trucks run set routes and cannot promise an exact hour. Dropping the unit a day early means it is in place, level and stocked before your first guest arrives, and nobody is waiting on a truck while the party starts.
Why aren't porta potties picked up on Sunday?
Porta potties are not picked up on Sunday because service trucks and the waste disposal sites they use run on weekdays. A Saturday or Sunday event is picked up Monday. The extra days are included in the flat event price, so the weekend on site costs nothing extra.
| Event day | Delivery | Pickup |
|---|---|---|
| Saturday | Friday | Monday |
| Sunday | Friday | Monday |
| Friday night | Thursday or Friday AM | Monday |
Is the porta potty safe sitting there all weekend?
A porta potty left over the weekend is generally safe on private property. Lock it after the event with the hasp and a padlock, and text us a photo if anything looks wrong before pickup. Normal wear is never billed; vandalism damage can be.
What if my venue won't allow an early drop-off?
If your venue or landlord will not allow a unit to sit before or after the event, tell us when you book. We will plan the closest weekday delivery and pickup that fits their rules, and explain any trade-off before you pay.
