Wilkes-Barre, PA Porta Potty Rentals

When can a porta potty reach Wilkes-Barre from Easton?

Wilkes-Barre is about 75 miles from our Easton yard, roughly 80 minutes by US-22 and the Turnpike Northeast Extension (I-476). Same-day delivery is possible when you call by 11 a.m. and a truck can be routed. Plan on next-business-day delivery for most Wilkes-Barre orders, and book events 3 days ahead.

Drivers work 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and call 30 to 60 minutes out.

Saturday events get Friday delivery and Monday pickup. Read how same-day porta potty delivery works, including the rush fee.

What access problems come up in Wilkes-Barre?

Wilkes-Barre's older wards, like Parsons, Miners Mills and the Heights, have tight streets and small lots. A porta potty needs level ground within about 15 feet of where our truck can park. Our driver will not cross lawns. Near the river, levee paths and park lanes may have locked gates.

The Susquehanna River levee protects the city, but park access lanes along it are not open to trucks without permission.

Give us gate contacts ahead of time. Our porta potty placement checklist helps you pick a reachable spot.

Who approves porta potties for Wilkes-Barre events?

Porta potties on private property in Wilkes-Barre usually need no city approval. Events in city parks or on city streets go through the City of Wilkes-Barre's Office of Special Events. Rules and fees change, so confirm with the office before booking units for Kirby Park, Nesbitt Park or the River Common.

The city's Special Events page lists contacts for event registration and city spaces.

Park events must remove their own recyclables and cardboard. Please confirm restroom needs with the office before delivery day.

Which units fit Wilkes-Barre jobs and events?

Wilkes-Barre events like the Cherry Blossom Festival in Kirby Park each April and July 4th celebrations draw large crowds. Plan 1 standard unit per 50 guests for 6 hours, plus at least 1 wheelchair-accessible unit. Home remodels and roofing crews with up to 10 workers need 1 serviced unit.

What changes in a Wilkes-Barre winter?

Wilkes-Barre averages about 45 inches of snow a year, with January lows well below freezing. A standard porta potty works all winter because it has no water lines. Sinks and hand-wash stations can freeze, so hand sanitizer is safer in deep cold. Keep a plowed path so weekly service stays on schedule.

Snow piles from plows can block a curb-side unit. Leave room for the service hose.
