A porta potty rental cost per day in Ankeny runs $100 to $350, with most standard units landing around $150 for the day. The final number depends on how far the truck drives, how many units you need, and whether you add a handwashing station or fencing alongside it.
Porta potty rental prices per day and porta potty rental price per day both settle in the same band locally, since "price" and "cost" describe the same quote here.
Ankeny Porta Pros prices a single day of standard porta potty rental between $100 and $350, and most weekday jobs settle near the $150 mark. That range covers a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank unit that measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stands roughly 92 inches tall, and it's the same figure most people mean when they ask about porta potty daily rental cost or portable toilet rental cost per day. If you need the unit for a Saturday event instead, expect the weekend rate to run higher than a weekday since a delivery crew still has to route the truck out and back on a Friday or Monday. Delivery itself is often billed separately, and that fee typically falls between $100 and $500 depending on distance and how many stops the driver makes that day. A single unit for a backyard project in Ankeny costs less to place than the same unit delivered out toward Johnston, roughly 10.2 miles southwest, simply because the truck burns more time on the road, and that same logic applies whether you're comparing a porta potty rental cost for one day or a longer booking. If you are comparing durations rather than just a single day, the porta potty rental cost page breaks down weekly and monthly pricing side by side.
Three things move the number: how many units, how far the delivery goes, and what kind of toilet you're renting. A deluxe flushable porta potty with a flush handle and a hand rinse station costs more per day than a standard unit, sometimes climbing well past $300 depending on the model. An ADA accessible porta potty also sits at the higher end of the range, since it needs a larger footprint to satisfy ADA Standards 304.3.1, which calls for a 60 inch turning circle inside the unit. Route matters too. A delivery to a job site near Ankeny costs less than one that has to reach past Altoona, about 12.5 miles southeast, because drive time gets folded into the delivery fee. Contractors running a construction site services job for a single day of demo work usually just need one standard unit and skip the extras, which keeps the quote near the low end of the band.
| unit | day | weekend |
|---|---|---|
| standard | $100 - $350 | $125 - $400 |
| ada | $200 - $400 | $199 - $300 |
| deluxe | $85 - $1200 | n/a |
Depends entirely on headcount. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline for construction crews: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers once you cross that threshold. A 15 person framing crew working a single day in Ankeny needs just one standard unit. A 60 person crew pouring foundation on a compressed schedule needs two, split by the ratio in that same standard. Event organizers face a different math problem, since foot traffic and dwell time matter more than a fixed worker count, and the how many porta potties do I need guide walks through that math in more detail. If you're clustering several single-user units for a one day festival or fair, ADA Standards 213.2 requires that at least 5 percent of that cluster, and never fewer than one, be an accessible unit. That rule doesn't disappear just because the rental is short. Anyone renting for home renovation porta potty work on a one day tear-out usually needs just the single standard unit, since crew size stays small.
Per-day, yes, but the math flips once you annualize it. A single day of standard rental in Ankeny costs less upfront than a full week, but a week of porta potty rental per day pricing spread across seven days works out cheaper per day than booking single days back to back, since the delivery fee only gets charged once. If your job runs three or four days, ask whether a weekly rate beats stacking daily rates, because the crossover point usually lands around day three or four. For anything running a full month, the monthly porta potty rental page has that separate pricing tier. Service frequency matters here too. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a baseline of one service visit per week for up to 10 users across a 40 hour week, so a one day rental typically doesn't need a mid-rental pump-out at all, which keeps the day rate lean. Multi-day jobs near Urbandale, about 16.9 miles southwest, or further toward Clive, roughly 18.4 miles southwest, sometimes make more sense as a week-long booking just to avoid a second delivery trip.
Most one day rentals in Ankeny fall between $100 and $350 for a standard unit, with delivery billed on top. The exact number depends on distance from the yard and how many units the order includes. Request a quote through request a quote for a number specific to your address.
The daily rate covers the unit itself, delivery, and pickup, but not always servicing mid-rental. A 60 to 70 gallon tank handles a full day of typical use without a pump-out. Add a handwashing station rental if OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) applies to your job, which covers painting, coating, or pesticide work specifically.
Yes. Single unit, single day orders are common for small renovation jobs, yard work, or one-off gatherings. Ankeny Porta Pros delivers and picks up the same unit within that one day window, and pricing stays inside the standard day-rate band listed above.
Yes, weekend rates run higher than weekday rates because the crew still routes a truck on the day before and after. Standard units on a weekend run $125 to $400 rather than the weekday day-rate band. Booking a Friday-to-Monday window instead of Saturday-only sometimes costs about the same.
Usually extra. Delivery fees for a single day typically range from $100 to $500 depending on distance and load size. Jobs closer to Ankeny cost less than those routed toward Waukee, about 26.5 miles southwest, purely on drive time.
