How much does porta potty rental cost in Cicero?
Price depends on the unit, how long you keep it, and how often it gets serviced. A standard porta potty is the base rate. Step up to a deluxe flushable unit or an ADA accessible model and the number climbs. A restroom trailer sits in its own class entirely.
| Unit | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $100-$350 | $130-$500 | $125-$325 |
| Deluxe flushable | $85-$1200 | $150-$290 | ask |
| ADA accessible | $200-$400 | $240-$240 | ask |
| Restroom trailer | $175-$2500 | $1397-$1650 | ask |

What do delivery, service and pickup cost?
These lines sit outside the rental rate, and most companies bundle them or hide them. We break them out so you see the whole number. Delivery is the truck bringing your unit to the site. Service is the weekly pump-and-clean. Pickup is the haul-away at the end.
| Charge | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery fee | $50-$150 | $120-$420 |
| Service visit | $30-$220 | $100-$300 |
Service matters because of how the interval works. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Push more people through a unit and it needs servicing more often, which moves the price. Our cleaning schedule page walks through that. If you want to know what a fair quote should itemize, the rental checklist lays it out. You can also read the full monthly rental breakdown or the flagship cost overview. Cicero Porta Pros never buries the pickup charge.
Why does a portable toilet rental cost what it does?
Several things move the number. Unit type is the biggest lever. A basic single sits far below a flushable deluxe unit or a two-stall trailer. Rental length matters too, and longer is cheaper per day than a weekend.
Distance is real. Want to rent a porta john or rent a portable restroom for a single day? We are in Cicero, so a drop in town costs less than a run out to Brookfield, 6.1 miles west or La Grange Park, 6.7 miles west. A standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands about 92 inches tall, so access and clearance at your site factor in. Servicing frequency, the holding tank size, and how many units you need all push the total. Our placement guide covers site access, and the how-many-do-I-need calculator sizes the order. For weather planning, see porta potty in winter. Cicero Porta Pros quotes it all upfront.
How much does a standard porta potty cost per day?
The single standard unit is the workhorse and the cheapest line on the menu. It has a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank and a basic hand sanitizer dispenser. For a one-day drop the daily rate applies. Keep it a week or a month and the per-day cost falls hard.
A weekend rental of a standard unit typically runs $125 to $400, quoted as one flat weekend rate rather than by the day. That premium is normal for short-term, and it sets the price to rent a porta potty for a two-day booking above the plain daily rate. For events specifically, an event-rate standard unit runs $200 to $800 depending on the crowd and the day. See the per-day pricing page for the daily math and the standard unit page for specs.
If your job is a home project, the home renovation porta potty page is the right start. For a jobsite, look at construction site services. Cicero Porta Pros carries the port o john rental line too, and stocks port o potties for rent by the day, week or month. A quick quote request gets you the exact figure.
What does a restroom trailer cost to rent?
Trailers are the top tier. A restroom trailer has flushing toilets, sinks with running water, climate control and interior lighting. That is why the range is wide. A daily rate spans $175 to $2500 depending on size, and a full event booking runs $2499 to $3899.
Size drives it. A 2 stall trailer is the entry point. A 4 stall unit suits mid-size events, and an 8 stall trailer handles large crowds. A trailer needs power and a level pad. Our trailer cost page breaks the tiers down. Weddings often want the luxury restroom trailer, and job crews sometimes add a shower trailer.
For a Cicero wedding or festival, a trailer changes the feel of the whole event. See the event restroom page for planning. Cicero Porta Pros delivers trailers across the west suburbs, including Melrose Park, 9.4 miles northwest.
How many units do I need, and how does that change the price?
Count your people and your hours. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets construction ratios: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one seat and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up, and one per 50 at 200 or more. More units means a bigger total, but the per-unit rate often drops on a bulk order.
Water and washing come into it. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at every workplace, and where crews apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities. That means a handwashing station or a portable sink added to your order. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), those washing stations need soap and towels, so sanitizer alone does not cover it.
Our OSHA requirements page covers the ratios in full, and the handwashing requirements guide covers the wash side. For a big Cicero crowd, festival restrooms and concert restrooms scale up cleanly.
Do I need a permit, and does it add to the cost?
Placement on private property inside Cicero usually does not need a permit. Placement in the public right of way, like a street or sidewalk, needs confirming with the city before we deliver. Permit rules and fees for Cicero are NOT verified here, so we will not quote a code or a dollar figure from memory. Check with the Town of Cicero directly.
That confirmation protects you. A unit set in a right of way without clearance can be tagged or moved, which costs more than the check would have. Our permit requirements page explains the process, and for dumpsters specifically the dumpster permit page covers that side.
ADA placement has its own rules. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires that where units are clustered, at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, be accessible. The accessible route must be 36 inches wide under section 403.5.1. See the ADA restroom requirements page. Cicero Porta Pros handles the layout so you clear both.
What does a fair quote for Cicero look like?
A fair quote names the unit, the rental length, the number of service visits, and the delivery and pickup charges as separate lines. If a company gives you one blended number with no breakout, ask them to itemize it, because the real portable restrooms rental cost is the sum of those lines. You should see the tank, the service interval and the haul-away spelled out.
Here are three worked scenarios for Cicero.
Weekend backyard party. One standard unit, weekend flat rate, one drop and one pickup. Budget the weekend rental plus a single delivery fee. See event restroom rental.
Month-long renovation. One standard unit on a monthly rate, four weekly service visits, one delivery, one pickup. The monthly rental page shows the math. Pair it with a roll-off dumpster for debris.
Small jobsite crew. Two standard units under the OSHA ratio, weekly service, plus a handwashing station. See construction site services and the emergency rental page for fast drops. Cicero Porta Pros itemizes every line. Get your quote or contact us.
