Portable toilets
Porta potty rental in South Bend
A graduation party, a backyard wedding, a family reunion, or a remodel that leaves the house without a working bathroom. Call to rent a portable toilet from an independent local company.
Call hours: Monday to Saturday 8am–8pm, Sunday 8am–1pm (South Bend time)
Events at home
One bathroom indoors gets a long line fast at a party, and keeps guests tracking through the house. A unit or two at the edge of the yard solves both.
When you call, give the expected guest count and how many hours the event runs. The company uses those to suggest how many units you need and whether a hand-washing station makes sense. For weddings, ask about the nicer units with a sink and mirror inside.
When the bathroom is torn out
In a home with one bathroom, a full remodel can leave you without a toilet for days or weeks. A portable unit by the driveway keeps the household going until the new fixtures are in.
For longer rentals, ask how often the unit is serviced and pumped, and whether servicing is included in the price.
Picking the spot
- Level ground
- Firm and flat, so the unit doesn't rock or tip.
- Service access
- The truck that pumps it needs to get within reach of the hose, usually from the driveway or street side.
- Out of the way
- Downwind and away from food tables, but easy to find after dark.
- Accessible units
- If a guest uses a wheelchair, ask for an accessible unit with a wider door and room to turn.
Keep it on your property
Place the unit in the yard or driveway. South Bend's street permit rules are written for dumpsters, so if a unit would have to sit in the street or an alley, ask the city through 311 before you plan on it.
