A standard porta potty for a Richardson home renovation runs 100 to 350 dollars a day, or 200 to 325 a month for longer jobs. Most homeowners keep one unit on site for the crew and skip the house bathroom entirely. Richardson Porta Pros delivers and services them on a schedule you set.
Day rate, week rate, or month rate. That's the whole decision once you know your timeline. A kitchen gut job running six weeks costs less per day on a monthly porta potty rental than booking four separate weekly terms. A weekend deck build is cheaper booked as a weekend than as two single days. Check the full breakdown on porta potty rental cost before you call, so you know which duration fits your Richardson project.

Delivery adds a separate fee, usually 100 to 500 dollars depending on distance and access. If your renovation site sits back from the street, or if there's a locked gate, mention it when you request a quote. A lot of homeowners searching "home depot porta potty rental" are actually looking for exactly this: a contractor-grade unit delivered to a house, not a big-box rental counter. Home Depot doesn't stock these. Richardson Porta Pros does, and we'll set the standard porta potty rental wherever your crew can reach it fastest.
Put it on a flat, stable surface near the work zone but off the walking path your family uses daily. ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for stable, firm, slip-resistant ground, and that standard is worth following even when accessibility isn't required, because a unit on soft dirt tips. Our porta potty placement guide covers driveway placement, side-yard clearance, and how close a unit can sit to windows and doors.
Renovating a rental property in Richardson brings extra questions. If the home sits on a corner lot or near a shared fence line, you may want a temporary fence rental around the work zone to keep tools and materials secured between visits, especially if the crew isn't on site every day. A chain link temporary fence around a dumpster and porta potty combo keeps neighbors and curious kids out of an active job site. That's a common setup for landlords handling a turnover between tenants.
If you're doing a full gut renovation and need somewhere to store fixtures, cabinets, or salvaged materials, a storage container rental parked next to the porta potty solves both problems at once. A 20ft storage container fits most single-family renovation jobs; bigger additions or whole-house rebuilds sometimes need the 40ft storage container instead. Some homeowners even ask about a mobile office trailer rental converted to home use during a rebuild after fire or flood damage, functioning as a temporary living space while the main house is unlivable. That's a different category from a construction trailer, so talk through the details with our office before ordering.
Only if the house's plumbing is offline. A full bathroom remodel or a septic system replacement can leave a household without running water for days, and that's when a shower trailer rental earns its keep. It's the same equipment used for a homeless shower trailer program or disaster housing, just parked in a driveway instead. Ask about weekend availability if the remodel is short; a weekend shower trailer rate falls in the 900 to 3,000 dollar range depending on stall count and hookups.
If your renovation touches the septic system itself, get the tank inspected before construction starts. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size, and a construction crew driving equipment over the drain field can crack lines you didn't know were shallow. Home septic tank cleaning before the job starts protects the system from added stress, and our septic pumping service page covers what a pump-out actually involves. Watch for septic tank warning signs like slow drains or wet spots in the yard once work begins.
For handwashing during the renovation, a standalone station keeps crew members from tracking into the house. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and a way to dry hands; hand sanitizer alone doesn't meet it. If the crew is doing painting or using coatings, herbicides, or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) applies specifically to washing after those tasks. A basic hand sanitizer station rental is fine for light drywall work, but a full handwashing station rental is the right call for anything involving chemicals or paint.

As long as the job takes. Day, week, and month terms all exist for exactly this reason. A short bathroom remodel might need a unit for two weeks; a full addition could need one for four months.

Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city. If the unit stays fully on your property, most homeowners don't run into that question, but check our porta potty permit requirements page before delivery day if the unit needs to sit near the curb.
