We call this unit wheelchair-accessible because that is how the manufacturer describes it. Whether a full setup meets ADA rules also depends on the ground, the path to the door and placement. Confirm with your venue or permit office.
How many accessible units does an event need?
An event needs at least 1 accessible unit, and at least 5% of the porta potties in each cluster must be accessible under the 2010 ADA Standards section 213.2. For example, a cluster of 20 units needs 1 accessible unit, and a cluster of 21 to 40 needs 2. Our recommendation is 1 accessible unit at any public event.
| Units in the cluster | Accessible units required |
|---|---|
| 1–20 | 1 |
| 21–40 | 2 |
| 41–60 | 3 |
Accessible units also need a turning space of a 60-inch diameter circle or a T-shaped space inside. Set the unit on a firm, level path with no curb between the parking area and the door.
Where should an accessible unit go?
An accessible unit should sit on pavement, packed gravel or short, dry grass, as close to the event entrance or parking as possible. Blackland clay soil around Temple turns soft after rain, so we move accessible units to a hard surface when the ground is wet.
- Keep 5 feet of clear space in front of the door.
- Do not place the unit on a slope or with the door facing a ditch.
- Put one accessible unit in each restroom cluster, not only at one end of the grounds.
ADA accessible porta potty rental questions
Do you have handicap porta potties for rent in Temple?
We rent the PolyJohn Comfort XL, a wheelchair-accessible porta potty with a ground-level floor, grab rails and a 32-inch door frame. It is available for events and job sites across Temple and Bell County.
Is a wheelchair-accessible porta potty the same as ADA-compliant?
The unit is wheelchair-accessible as built. ADA compliance depends on the whole setup, including the path, slope and number of units. Your venue or permit office makes the final call.
Do I need an ADA porta potty for a private backyard party?
Private parties at a home are generally not covered by the ADA. If a guest uses a wheelchair or walker, an accessible unit still makes the day easier for them. The roomy floor also helps parents with small children.
How big is the handicap porta potty?
The accessible unit is 62 inches wide, 62 inches deep and 91 inches tall. Plan a flat 6-by-6-foot space plus 5 feet of clear area in front of the door.
Can I rent one accessible unit with a standard unit?
Many Temple events rent one accessible unit with one or more standard units. The accessible unit is priced separately on your itemized quote.
