How many porta potties does a backyard party need?

A backyard party needs 1 porta potty for every 50 guests for up to 4 hours. Add 1 more when beer, wine or a full meal is served, and 1 wheelchair-accessible unit if a guest uses a wheelchair or walker. A 75-guest graduation party with food needs 3 standard units.

Check your count with the porta potty calculator.

What should you check before delivery day?

Before delivery day, measure any gate the unit must pass through (48 inches minimum), mark the spot with a stake or cone, move cars off the path, and put gate codes and dog warnings in the order notes. The unit arrives the day before your party, between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Nobody has to be home; the driver calls about 30 minutes ahead.

What should you keep on hand during the party?

During the party, keep 4 extra rolls of toilet paper, a small trash can outside the door, and a battery lantern or string lights for evening guests. Place a hand-wash station or a bottle of sanitizer nearby if food is served. Lock the unit after guests leave if it faces the street.
