Can a porta potty sit in a Greenville street or sidewalk?
A porta potty in a public street, sidewalk or road shoulder needs approval from whoever owns that right-of-way. Greenville has 3 common owners: the City of Greenville, Greenville County and SCDOT. We place units on private property by default, and in the right-of-way only when the customer has written approval.
| Where the unit would sit | Who to ask |
|---|---|
| City street, sidewalk or downtown event area | City of Greenville |
| County road right-of-way | Greenville County Public Works encroachment permits, 864-467-7011 |
| State highway shoulder | SCDOT encroachment permit (no fee) |
| Private lot, driveway or yard | The property owner |
Greenville County lists its rules on the Public Works permitting page. This is not legal advice; confirm with the owner of the right-of-way.
How do downtown Greenville deliveries work?
Downtown Greenville deliveries need 2 things: a legal place for our truck to stop and a level spot within a short roll of that stop. Many downtown lots are tight, with alleys and loading zones. Send a photo of the spot, and book a morning drop before street events or closures begin.

Alley placement works when the unit leaves room for traffic and the door opens fully. Our standard unit is 44 inches wide and 47 inches deep.
For a dressier downtown event, compare the VIP flushing cabin with a restroom trailer.

(864) 209-8789Free quoteDo gatherings along the Swamp Rabbit Trail need restrooms?
The Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail runs about 19.9 miles, from Greenville Technical College through Falls Park and the Furman University campus to just north of Travelers Rest. Trailside businesses, churches and homes host rides, races and gatherings. One standard unit serves up to 50 people for 4 hours on private property.
Units for an event on public trail land need approval from the trail or park owner first. Private lots beside the trail are simpler.
Events up to 4 hours use 1 standard unit per 50 people, so a 400-runner morning race needs 8 units. Longer events use guests times hours divided by 200.
See festival and race restrooms for cluster layouts.
How fast can a Greenville address get a unit?
Greenville is about 31 miles from our Anderson yard and inside our Upstate same-day route area. Call by 12:00 noon, Monday through Saturday, for same-day delivery. Downtown and I-385 traffic can push arrival later in the 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. window, so events should book a day-before drop.
Greenville sits past our 25-mile included-delivery radius, so the quote lists mileage as its own line. There is no card or fuel surcharge.
Call (864) 209-8789 or use the quote form. A ZIP is enough for a first price.
Where do Greenville builders get permits?
Builders in unincorporated Greenville County use the Greenville County Permit Center, phone 864-467-7060. Builders inside city limits work through the City of Greenville's building office. Job-site toilets follow OSHA 1926.51: 1 toilet for 20 or fewer workers, then 1 seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers.
County details are on the Greenville County Building Permitting page.
Infill builds in older Greenville neighborhoods often have little yard. A unit at the curb side of the driveway keeps the street clear. Our construction toilet page covers crew sizes.
Which units do Greenville wedding and venue hosts choose?
Greenville wedding and venue hosts usually pick from 3 upgrades over a standard unit: the deluxe flushing unit, the VIP flushing cabin and the 2-station restroom trailer. The cabin needs a flat spot about 5 by 5 feet. The trailer needs a 110-volt, 20-amp outlet within 100 feet and level ground about 20 feet long.
| Unit | Flush and sink | Setup need |
|---|---|---|
| Deluxe flushing unit | Foot-pump flush, interior sink | Level spot, no hookup |
| VIP flushing cabin | Flush toilet, vanity sink, mirror, light | Flat spot about 5 by 5 ft, truck access |
| 2-station restroom trailer | Flushing toilets, vanity sinks, climate control | Power, hose or tank fill, 20 ft of level ground |
Venue lawns in the city often have one truck access point. Tell us where it is before booking a trailer. See wedding restrooms.

Questions renters ask before booking

A standard event unit starts at $165, and Greenville is about 31 miles from our yard. Mileage past 25 miles shows on the quote as its own line, with tax listed separately.
Can you deliver to a downtown Greenville alley behind our restaurant?
Alley drops work when our truck can stop legally and the unit leaves the lane clear. Send a photo, and we will confirm before booking.
Do you have restroom trailers for a Greenville wedding?
Our 2-station restroom trailer starts at $1,150 for a weekend, with larger trailers quoted. The trailer needs a 110-volt, 20-amp outlet within 100 feet, or we quote a generator.

For a 4-hour event with 400 people, our rule gives 8 units. Add at least 1 wheelchair-accessible unit, and check with the trail owner about placement on public land.
