Who We Are
Gaithersburg Porta Pros operates as a full-service site rental company. We focus on speed and reliability because downtime costs money. Our trucks dispatch same-day in most cases. We haul portable toilets to job sites, events and temporary facilities. We pump septic tanks and grease traps for homes and restaurants. We deliver roll-off dumpsters for demolition and debris removal. When a construction site needs restroom trailers, fencing or a handwashing station, we handle the delivery, setup and pickup. Our standard unit is about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall, holding a 60 to 70 gallon tank that's serviced weekly according to ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, the portable sanitation service standard.
We serve Gaithersburg and nearby towns like Flower Hill (1.9 miles northeast), Montgomery Village (3.9 miles north), Derwood (4.1 miles southeast), Redland (4.6 miles east) and North Potomac (5.4 miles southwest). Many customers in Gaithersburg use us for construction site services, which means we understand OSHA requirements. Under OSHA 1926.51(c)(1), a construction site with 20 workers or fewer needs one toilet facility; from 20 to 40 workers, you need one seat and one urinal per 40 people. We size the rental to your crew.
What We Rent
Our standard porta potty rental covers most jobs. The unit handles about 10 users over a 40-hour work week. For higher-traffic sites or events, we offer deluxe flushable units with more comfort. We also rent ADA-accessible porta potties that meet ADA Standards section 213.2, which requires at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units to be accessible, and never fewer than one. These units have wider doors and interior space for wheelchair users.
We deliver restroom trailers for events and long-term projects. A trailer gives you flushing toilets, running water and climate control, a major step up from a portable toilet. We also rent 2-stall, 4-stall and larger trailers depending on your headcount and duration.
Roll-off dumpsters handle debris from construction, renovation and cleanup. We size them from 10 to 40 yards. A roll-off needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so we confirm site access before delivery. For longer projects, storage containers keep materials and tools secure on site. We also supply temporary fencing and handwashing stations. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities must provide soap and towels or a hand drying device, not hand sanitizer alone, which is why we stock our handwashing units properly.
Septic and Grease Services
We pump residential septic tanks throughout Gaithersburg. A typical residential septic tank is pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size. We also pump grease traps for restaurants and commercial kitchens. A grease interceptor is pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth to prevent blockages. We respond quickly to emergency septic service calls.
FAQ
What's the fastest way to get a unit delivered to Gaithersburg?
Call or use our online quote tool. We dispatch same-day in most cases and confirm arrival time before we leave the yard. Weekend and holiday service takes longer, so plan ahead for events.
Do you charge delivery fees?
Yes. Delivery cost varies by unit type and rental duration. Longer rentals have lower per-day delivery costs. A dumpster rental and a porta potty rental have different delivery bands, so request a quote for your specific job.
Can I place a unit in the public right of way?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the City of Gaithersburg. We recommend you contact the city directly before finalizing your order. We'll coordinate once you have approval.
Are your units ADA compliant?
Our ADA accessible porta potties meet ADA Standards. They have 32-inch minimum door widths, a 60-inch turning circle per ADA Standards section 304.3.1, and stable, slip-resistant floors. We size accessible units as 5 percent of your total or a minimum of one unit, whichever is greater.
How often do you service a unit?
Standard portable toilet service is weekly. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40-hour week as the baseline. High-traffic events may need mid-week service. Restroom trailers and long-term rentals have different schedules, discuss that in your quote.
