Evanston generates a wide range of sanitation needs, and the right answer looks different depending on whether you are running a six-month renovation, hosting a private outdoor wedding, or managing a public event with hundreds of attendees. Schmidt Porta Potty Rental covers all of it, from a single standard porta potty dropped at a job site to a multi-stall luxury restroom trailer set up for a formal outdoor reception. Whatever sits between those two ends of the range, we have it.
We deliver, service, and pick up portable restrooms and sanitation equipment throughout Evanston and the surrounding communities. The full lineup runs from standard units and deluxe flushable restrooms through ADA-accessible porta potties, hand-wash stations, holding tanks, and restroom trailers in multiple configurations. Call (464) 266-9289 for a free quote and we will put together an order that fits exactly what you need.
What each event needs is different, and that applies to job sites just as much as it does to gatherings. A homeowner whose only bathroom is out of commission for two weeks needs something different from a general contractor running a crew through a long commercial build. An outdoor ceremony with 80 guests needs a different unit than a public festival with a crowd ten times that size. Choosing the right unit from the start means fewer problems once it is on site.
The service page carries the full comparison of everything we offer. The three units below come up most often in Evanston, and they cover a wide range of situations on their own.
This is the unit that handles the most ground. It suits construction sites, backyard events, fundraisers, and any situation where reliable, no-frills sanitation is what the job calls for. It is durable, straightforward, and built to handle steady use without requiring much thought once it is placed.
When the occasion calls for something guests will actually notice, this unit steps up. A foot-pump flush, a fresh-water sink, and a mirror put it in a different category from the standard model. Outdoor weddings, graduation parties, and upscale private events around Evanston reach for this unit when presentation matters as much as function.
Ground-level entry, a wide interior, and grab bars make this unit the right call for any event or site that needs to be accessible to everyone attending. It belongs in every public event order, and it pairs well with any combination of other units on a larger setup.
Outdoor recreation facilities run events and host visitors across extended seasons, and sanitation coverage has to keep pace with that kind of spread-out traffic. Standard units placed at multiple points across a property handle the volume without funneling everyone to one location. For facilities that host tournaments or member events, a deluxe unit or small trailer near the main gathering area makes the experience noticeably better.
A kitchen gut or a bathroom renovation that takes the home's only toilet offline puts a family in a difficult position. A single standard unit placed in the driveway or yard solves the problem cleanly for however long the work runs. We service it on a regular schedule throughout the rental so it stays in good condition from the first day to the last.
Agricultural sites and seasonal operations often sit well outside standard sewer infrastructure. Holding tanks handle those locations without a sewer connection, keeping waste contained until service arrives. For harvest season or a winery event, a combination of standard units and hand-wash stations covers both the working crew and any guests on the property at the same time.
A tournament or a race day concentrates a lot of people in one place for a defined window of time. The unit count matters here more than almost anywhere else, because a line at a restroom is the kind of thing attendees remember. ADA-accessible units belong in every sporting event order. For larger events, we work through the numbers with you on the call so the count matches the crowd.
The price is confirmed on the phone before anything is scheduled. What moves it is straightforward: how many units you need, which types they are, how long the rental runs, and how often servicing is required. A one-day event order looks different from a three-month construction rental, and a site that needs daily service visits costs more to maintain than one on a standard twice-a-week schedule.
Every rental includes delivery, placement, routine servicing, and pickup. Servicing covers the full cycle: pump-out, cleaning, sanitizing, deodorizing, and restocking paper and soap. High-traffic situations get more frequent visits. The rate you hear on the phone reflects all of that, and you know what it covers before you commit to anything.
There are no mysteries in the process. Ask what the quote includes and you get a straight answer. Local accountability means we earn the next rental by doing this one right.
Getting the unit count wrong, or waiting too long to book, is the most common problem we see on event orders. A call with a few details in hand is all it takes to avoid it. When you call, it helps to know your date, a rough sense of how many people will be on site, how long the event or project runs, and whether the placement is on private property or in a public right of way. Street placements sometimes need a permit, and requirements vary by location. We confirm what applies at your address before delivery is scheduled.
We will ask about access for the delivery vehicle, the surface where the unit will sit, and whether any of your guests or workers will need an ADA-accessible unit. The sooner you call, the sooner we get units on site, and the more flexibility there is on timing.
Same-day delivery is available in Evanston when the schedule allows. Most customers book a few days to a week ahead for standard orders, and event rentals with trailers or multiple units tend to come together a bit earlier to make sure the right equipment is available on the date you need it. Weekend and holiday delivery is available, because events and job-site needs do not always fall on a Tuesday.
Once the order is confirmed, a local operator handles delivery and positions each unit where you need it. Units arrive fully stocked with paper and sanitizer, ready to use from the moment they are set down. Pickup is scheduled when the rental ends, and long-term construction rentals stay flexible as project timelines shift. Call today and we're ready to roll.
We serve Evanston and the communities around it throughout Cook County. Neighboring areas we cover regularly include Skokie, Wilmette, Kenilworth, Lincolnwood, and Golf. If your site falls somewhere nearby, call and we will confirm coverage at your address. We'll be there with clean units.
For longer events or high-traffic situations, hand-wash stations may need a water and soap refill before the event ends. If you expect heavy use, mention it when you call so we can factor a mid-event service visit into the plan.
It should be reasonably close and reachable by the guests or workers who need it, but it does not have to be physically adjacent to every other unit. Placement that allows clear, unobstructed access is the practical goal. We can talk through the layout when you call.
Yes. Units do not have to be clustered in one spot. We place them wherever they are most useful, whether that means multiple locations across a festival grounds, separate stations for different work areas on a construction site, or a mix of both.
Yes, as long as we can get clear directions to the location. Remote properties, agricultural land, and undeveloped sites without a formal address come up regularly. Give us landmarks, GPS coordinates, or detailed directions when you call and we will make sure the delivery crew can find it.
A combination of standard units and at least one ADA-accessible porta potty covers most tournament setups. The ADA unit provides ground-level entry, a wide interior, and grab bars for attendees who need them. For larger tournaments with higher attendance, we work through the unit count with you on the call so the order keeps pace with the crowd throughout the day.
Yes. Servicing frequency is set when the order is placed, but it can be increased if traffic is higher than expected. Call us and we will adjust the schedule to match what the site actually needs.
Yes. Restroom trailers are available for private residential events and are a strong choice when the occasion calls for running water, climate control, and a more finished interior. Access for the delivery vehicle is the main practical consideration, and we talk through the specifics on the call so placement goes smoothly.
Yes. Units can be added at any point during a rental. If your crew grows or the project expands, call us and we will arrange delivery of the additional units and add them to the existing service schedule.
Schmidt Porta Potty Rental delivers the right units to Evanston addresses, services them on schedule throughout the rental, and picks them up when the job is done. Event service. Job-site service. One number for both.

| Unit | Best Suited For | Notable Features | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Portable RestroomMost Popular | Construction sites, block parties, tailgates, general events |
| The most commonly rented unit we carry. One unit covers up to 20 workers on a job site, or plan one per 50 guests for events running up to four hours. |
| Standard Restroom with Hand Sink | Farmers markets, school events, church functions, film shoots |
| A practical choice when you want handwashing built into the restroom rather than handled by a separate stand-alone station nearby. |
| Deluxe Flushable Restroom | Outdoor weddings, graduation parties, upscale gatherings |
| When a standard unit would feel out of place, this is the step up. Works well alongside restroom trailers on larger events that need a mix of unit types. |
| ADA / Wheelchair-Accessible Restroom | Any permitted or public event, mixed-ability job sites |
| Plan for at least one ADA unit on every event order, and roughly one ADA unit for every 20 units on larger orders. We carry them for any order size. |
| Rolling / Elevator-Fit Unit | Multi-floor and high-rise construction sites |
| Designed specifically for high-rise and multi-story builds across the Chicago metro where workers need access without a trip to ground level. |
| Crane-Hoistable Unit | Elevated work decks, rooftop construction, high-rise builds |
| The right call when the work deck is elevated and there is no elevator access. Keeps the crew from losing time making trips down to a lower level. |
| Trailer-Mounted Single Unit | Remote sites, frequently relocated jobs, rural properties |
| A practical solution when the job moves or when a site is too remote or irregular for a standard drop placement. |
| Restroom Trailer, 2-Station | Small weddings, private parties, intimate gatherings |
| A compact trailer that fits where a large multi-stall unit would be too much. Works well for events of 75 to 150 guests depending on event length. |
| Restroom Trailer, Multi-Station | Festivals, large weddings, corporate outdoor events, 5K races |
| High-traffic events benefit from the throughput a multi-stall trailer provides. Call us with your attendance estimate and we will recommend the right stall count. |
| Luxury / VIP Wedding Restroom Trailer | Upscale weddings, VIP sections, corporate galas, film productions |
| When the event's presentation matters as much as the logistics, these trailers deliver a guest experience that standard units cannot. Available for full event setups or VIP areas only. |
| ADA Restroom Trailer | Large events requiring accessible trailer facilities |
| The right choice when a large event needs ADA compliance in a trailer format. Pairs alongside standard restroom trailers to cover the full range of guest needs. |
| Shower Trailer / Shower-Restroom Combo | Disaster relief, remote construction crews, multi-day festivals |
| Deployed for disaster relief operations, crew camps, and any multi-day event or remote job where workers need to clean up on site. |
| Hand-Wash Station | Food-service events, school carnivals, high-traffic outdoor events |
| A strong addition to any order where food is served or where hygiene is a priority. Arrives stocked and ready to use alongside the restroom units. |
| Hand-Sanitizer Station | Event entrances, high-traffic walkways, indoor-outdoor transitions |
| Useful at entry points and anywhere guests move between areas. Works as a supplement to hand-wash stations rather than a replacement when soap and water are available. |
| Holding Tank | Remote properties, farms, pipeline sites, off-grid locations |
| We pump and service the holding tanks we place. This is not septic-tank service. It covers the portable sanitation equipment we deliver and maintain. |
| Spill-Containment Tray | Indoor placements, sensitive flooring, warehouse and facility events |
| A practical add-on when a unit is placed on a surface that cannot tolerate any moisture. Often required for indoor placements or events on finished floors. |
