Porta Potty Rental in Savannah, Georgia

Porta potty rental in Savannah is handled by portable sanitation companies permitted through Coastal Health District, the Health Authority for Chatham County. Standard units run $120–$260 for an event weekend and $135–$300 per month on construction terms.

Renting in Savannah

St. Patrick's Day is the single largest portable sanitation deployment on the Georgia coast, and inventory across the Coastal Health District is committed months in advance. Requesting units in February for a March event is generally too late.

Port-driven industrial construction around Garden City and Pooler runs large crews on open sites with straightforward truck access. Historic District renovation work is the opposite problem: narrow lanes, no lay-down space, and visual screening expectations.

Historic District squares restrict where units may sit and how visible they can be; several squares have no adjacent truck standing space at all.

Conditions that change the order

  • Salt air accelerates corrosion on hinges, latches, and pump hardware
  • Summer humidity is the highest of any major Georgia market, increasing odor-control demands
  • Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30 and requires tie-down or removal plans
  • Sandy and marsh-adjacent ground needs load-spreading under heavier units
  • Tidal flooding affects low-lying downtown streets independent of rainfall

Recurring local demand: Savannah St. Patrick's Day Parade · Savannah Music Festival · Rock 'n' Roll Savannah Marathon

Coastal Georgia pricing: Above baseline. Salt-air maintenance costs, hurricane-season contingency, and tourism-season demand all push pricing up, and St. Patrick's Day commits Savannah inventory months ahead.

Georgia rule 511-3-6

What Georgia rule requires in Savannah

From Rules of the Georgia Department of Public Health, Chapter 511-3-6 — Portable Sanitation Contractors, quoted with citations.

Event sponsors and construction site owners must hold a service contract

Each special event sponsor and construction site owner utilizing a portable sanitation unit must and show proof of a service contract with a certified portable sanitation company.

511-3-6-.03(5)

Why it matters: This obligation sits on the customer, not just the vendor. If you sponsor an event or own a construction site in Georgia, you are the party who must be able to produce the contract.

Haulers need an annual Waste Removal and Disposal Permit

No person shall engage in the removal or disposal of the contents of a portable sanitation unit without having obtained a Waste Removal and Disposal Permit from the Health Authority for the county in which the business is based. The permit must be renewed annually, and shall be valid in every county throughout the State.

511-3-6-.03(2)

Why it matters: The permit is issued by the county where the company is based but is valid statewide — so an Atlanta-permitted hauler can legally service a job in Savannah. Ask for the permit, not for a local address.

Spillage liability falls on the property owner and event sponsor

The property owner and special event sponsor are responsible for all prohibited discharge and unapproved spillage of sewage associated with a portable sanitation unit. The property owner and special event sponsor must notify the portable sanitation company if any unit becomes unsanitary, unsafe, or causes a prohibited discharge.

511-3-6-.03(4)

Why it matters: Georgia assigns discharge liability to you, the site owner or sponsor — not only to the hauler. Documented service intervals are your evidence.

In Chatham County, the Health Authority issuing those permits is Coastal Health District. The state Environmental Health office can confirm a company’s standing at (404) 657-6534.

How it works

What happens after you call

  1. 1

    Tell us the job

    Unit type, the Savannah delivery address or cross streets, dates, and either your crew size or your peak crowd. That is enough to size the order against the Georgia tables.

  2. 2

    We size it against the rule

    Construction jobs go through OSHA Table 1 as Georgia adopts it. Events go through Table 2, including the sewered-toilet subtraction and the 25% alcohol adjustment.

  3. 3

    We route it to a certified company

    The job goes to a portable sanitation company holding a current Waste Removal and Disposal Permit recognised by Coastal Health District. That permit is issued by the county where the company is based and is valid statewide.

  4. 4

    You get the quote in writing

    Written quote within 24 hours of a weekday request, or a same-day callback when you call before 3pm Eastern. Quoted pricing is held for 14 days from the date issued. If the delivered price would differ from the quote, we tell you why before you commit.

  5. 5

    Delivery, service, pickup

    Placement is confirmed against truck access, and on events against the rule that units stay accessible for maintenance by truck at all times. Service intervals are set before delivery, not after.

Frequently asked questions

Savannah rental questions

Which coastal counties share Savannah's Health Authority?

The Coastal Health District, district 9-1, covers Bryan, Camden, Chatham, Effingham, Glynn, Liberty, Long, and McIntosh counties, with offices in Savannah and Brunswick. A company permitted anywhere in that district — or anywhere in Georgia — may lawfully serve a Savannah job, since the permit is valid statewide.

How does port construction affect Savannah availability?

Port-driven industrial construction around Garden City and Pooler runs large crews on open sites for long terms, which absorbs a meaningful share of regional inventory into monthly placements. That leaves less slack for short-notice event demand than a market without a comparable industrial base.

Do Savannah units need different maintenance than inland units?

They need more of it. Salt air accelerates corrosion on hinges, latches, and pump hardware, and the highest summer humidity of any major Georgia market increases odor-control demand. Both push maintenance cost per unit above the inland baseline, which is part of why coastal pricing runs high.

What is the wettest constraint on Savannah placements?

Tidal flooding, which affects low-lying downtown streets independently of rainfall. A position that has never flooded in a storm can still be underwater on a king tide, so check tide timing alongside the forecast for multi-day placements near the river.
