On the Cheap
Portable restrooms don’t have to be unpleasant affairs, nor do they have to be power-guzzling plastic monsters. Elite Coaches “emerald” line is a cost-saving unit—solar-powered and self-contained, the lights are linked to a pressure padsystem in the floor, so they turn on when someone enters the unit. It rents between $650 to $750 per unit, with a delivery fee of about $300 for a four-hour Manhattan event.
Mid-Price
Mr. John has a wide range of restrooms from one-room units to elegant two-room outfits with skylights and brass fixtures. For small events, the “bronze” restroom trailer—a fully self-contained, solar-powered unit that requires no electricity or water source for operation—is priced at $975 per unit, with a delivery, setup, and pickup charge of $230.
Splurge
Olympus Fashion Week and the Republican National Convention have both hired Kohler Rental Power for portable potties. Its 24-foot luxury trailers all feature Kohler’s plumbing products, individual men’s and women’s facilities, temperature controls, and full-length mirrors. (Coming this fall are 32-footers with double capacity and a handicap-accessible stall.) They cost $3,200 each for a three-day rental.
