What to plan for in Charlotte

Tight lots are access-limited

On a small or crowded lot, truck reach decides placement more than unit count does. Street width, lane closures and staging areas all affect where a unit can be set and serviced, so walk the site before you book.

Projects that move need units that move

If your active work area shifts as the job goes on, plan on relocating units during the project rather than assuming one spot will work from start to finish.

Permit conditions set your minimum

If your event needs a permit, read its conditions before you settle on a count. Any restroom or accessibility requirements in it are your minimum, not a suggestion.

Common rentals here

Construction and renovation sites.
Festivals, races and events on public space.

Food vendors

Job sites

North Carolina runs its own OSHA-approved state plan, so the NC Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Division enforces the construction sanitation standard, 29 CFR 1926.51. Its Table D-1 sets the legal minimum: one toilet for 20 or fewer workers; from 20, one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers; from 200, one of each per 50 workers.

Accessible units

Where portable toilets are grouped together, the 2010 ADA Standards call for at least 5 percent of them, and no fewer than one, to be accessible. An event permit can ask for more.
