Farm and agricultural restrooms in Richardson, TX run about $130 to $500 a week for a standard unit, depending on how many hands are working the field and how far the delivery truck has to travel. Hand-labor crews need one toilet and handwash setup within a quarter mile, per federal rule. Richardson Porta Pros delivers to properties across the area on a set schedule.
Federal field sanitation rules under OSHA 1928.110 set the baseline for hand-labor agricultural operations: one toilet and handwashing facility for every 20 employees, and it has to sit within a quarter mile walk of wherever people are working. That is not a suggestion. It is written to keep workers from skipping bathroom breaks because the closest facility is a field away. A standard porta potty rental satisfies the toilet half of that rule on its own. Pair it with a handwashing station rental or a portable sink rental and you have covered both halves in one delivery.
Potable water matters too. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of drinking water at any place of employment, and that standard carries over to farm labor camps and seasonal crews the same way it applies to a job site. If your crew is spraying anything, herbicide, insecticide, coating, the washing facility requirement under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) kicks in specifically because of that contaminant exposure, not as a general rule.
Farms outside dense Richardson zoning often run their own wells or rural water lines, which makes a self-contained unit with its own tank the simpler option. A standard unit carries a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank and stands about 92 inches tall on a footprint near 44 by 48 inches, small enough to tuck at a field edge or barn access road without blocking equipment.
Crew size drives the count more than acreage does. Under the federal field sanitation ratio, a crew of 20 or fewer hand-labor workers needs one toilet and one handwash station; add another set for every additional 20 workers, and keep each one within a quarter mile of where people are actually picking, pruning, or packing. Spread-out row crop operations sometimes need two or three stations placed at different ends of the property just to keep everyone inside that walking distance. Use our how many porta potties do I need guide if your headcount shifts by season, since harvest crews often run heavier than planting crews.
Seasonal contract labor and migrant crews add another wrinkle: housing sites sometimes need their own dedicated units separate from the field stations, especially if workers are on-site around the clock rather than commuting in daily. A weekly service interval, consistent with the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, covers most single-crew operations. Larger crews or multi-shift harvests need more frequent pumping, and we adjust the route accordingly.
Farms near Richardson often sit close enough to town that a same-day delivery works even on short notice. Properties out past Murphy, roughly 8.5 miles northeast of Richardson, or Sachse, about 10.3 miles east, still fall inside our regular delivery loop. If your operation is more remote than that, call ahead so we can plan the drive time into the route.

|---|---|---|

| week | $200 | most common term for active field crews |
| month | $200 | seasonal labor, standing rental through harvest |
Pricing above reflects a standard porta potty rental at typical rates; a full breakdown of what drives cost up or down lives on our porta potty rental cost page. Monthly terms make sense for planting-through-harvest stretches where the same crew works the property for weeks at a stretch; check our monthly porta potty rental page for that structure specifically. Day rates suit one-off jobs like a single spraying day or a contractor doing fence work along a property line.
If your farm also runs a roadside stand, agritourism event, or seasonal pumpkin patch, you may need something closer to event-grade service instead of straight field sanitation. Our festival restroom rental and county fair restrooms pages cover that higher-traffic use case, and a deluxe flushable porta potty or small restroom trailer rental fits better than a basic field unit when customers, not just crew, are using the facility.
Placement rules differ depending on whether the unit sits on private agricultural land or near a public road. Confirm placement with the City of Richardson before delivery if any part of the setup is near a right of way; our porta potty permit requirements page walks through what to ask.
Weekly service covers most crews of 10 or fewer working a standard 40 hour week, per the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline interval. Larger or multi-shift crews need twice-weekly pumping. See how often are porta potties cleaned for the full schedule breakdown.
Yes, but pairing them is smarter for compliance. Field sanitation rules expect both together, and a standalone hand sanitizer station rental does not satisfy the handwashing requirement under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which calls for soap and towels.
Add a light tower rental alongside the restroom units. Illumination standards for work areas are covered under OSHA 1926.56(a), and harvest crews running into the evening need both light and sanitation covered together.
Housing sites with workers on-site full time often need a deluxe flushable porta potty or an ADA-compliant unit if anyone on the crew needs accessible features; check ADA accessible porta potty options before harvest starts.
Yes. Richardson Porta Pros delivers farm and agricultural restrooms across Richardson and the surrounding metro, with same-day and next-day drop-off available on most orders.
