How to request a quote
Tell us what you need. Are you renting a standard porta potty for a construction job, or do you need an ADA accessible unit? Maybe it's a wedding and you're looking at restroom trailers. Let us know the dates, the number of people, and where in San Marcos the equipment goes. If you're not sure how many units you need, OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) says construction sites need 1 toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 up. That helps us figure the right count. For non-construction work, 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires washing facilities with soap and towels or a hand drying device, not just hand sanitiser.
The form takes two minutes. You can also call directly. San Marcos Porta Pros quotes standard weekly rentals, monthly options, weekend rates and daily drops. We cover construction dumpster rental, grease trap pumping for restaurants, storage containers, temporary fence by the linear foot, and handwashing stations where work involves paints, coatings, or herbicides.
What we need from you
Location matters. San Marcos has different street access than Poway, 17.6 miles southeast, or Lake San Marcos, 3.2 miles west. A roll-off dumpster needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck. Tell us the street address or the job site name so we can check if there's room and what the ground looks like. Soft earth, gravel, concrete and asphalt all affect setup. If you need a unit placed in the public right of way, confirm placement rules with the city first.
Duration changes the price. A standard porta potty costs more by the week than by the day, and more by the month than by the week. Same logic for dumpster rental and restroom trailer rental. Tell us your exact dates. One week is not always 7 days on the calendar; we'll clarify the rental period so there's no surprise when you're invoiced.
Number of users matters. One person for a month uses much less than 30 people for three days. A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and sits about 44 by 48 inches on the ground. If the job's got 50 people and lasts two weeks, we'll quote deluxe flushable units or a restroom trailer instead.

Delivery, setup and service visits cost extra. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years depending on tank size and household size; we'll quote that separately based on your tank.
Frequently asked questions
How fast can you deliver?
Same day in San Marcos for most rentals. Emergency requests go to the top of the queue. Tell us the date and time and we'll confirm before you hang up.
Do you service Elfin Forest and Harmony Grove?
Yes. Elfin Forest is 6.8 miles south of San Marcos and Harmony Grove is 6.9 miles southeast. We cover those areas and others nearby. Longer distances cost more to deliver.
Can I rent just for the weekend?
Yes. Weekend rates are higher than weekday rates because the same unit turns over faster. Give us the Friday arrival and Monday pickup dates and we'll quote it.
What if I don't know how many toilets I need?
Tell us your job type and headcount. We'll use industry standards and OSHA rules to recommend a count, then you decide. Construction jobs, events, agricultural work and film shoots all have different needs.
How do I know if my quote is locked in?
Once you approve it, the quote is binding as long as your dates and location don't change. If you move the job or add a week, we'll revise it and send a new one.
