Georgia rule 511-3-6

What Georgia rule requires

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.

Permit applications run on a 10-day / 20-day clock

Application is made in writing on forms provided by the Department to the Health Authority for the county in which the business is based, at least ten days prior to engaging in such activities. The Health Authority approves or disapproves within twenty days after receipt of a completed application.

511-3-6-.05

Why it matters: A company that cannot produce a current permit cannot legally take your job next week — the approval clock alone is up to twenty days.

Only human waste — and no harsh chemicals

The property owner, as the originator, is responsible for ensuring that the portable sanitation unit is only used for the disposal of human excreta. Commercial waste, grease, hazardous chemicals, and non human excreta shall not be discarded into portable sanitation units. No strong bases, acids or organic solvents shall be used in the operation of a portable sanitation unit.

511-3-6-.03(4), 511-3-6-.03(9)

Why it matters: On job sites this is the rule most often broken — crews dumping paint wash, solvent, or grease into a unit shifts a hazardous-waste problem onto the site owner.

Handwashing fixtures require potable water and Do Not Drink labeling

The fresh water tank on the service vehicle must be filled with potable water only. All fresh water tanks on the service vehicles and affixed to hand wash fixtures must be labeled with the international symbol for Do Not Drink. Each hand washing fixture must be sufficiently supplied with soap and paper towels adequate for the duration between servicing.

511-3-6-.03(10)

Why it matters: Soap and towels must last the whole interval between services — a station stocked for a day but serviced weekly is out of compliance by midweek.

How it works

What happens after you call

  1. 1

    Tell us the job

    Unit type, the delivery address, 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. 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

Construction Porta Potty Rental: common questions

Do construction porta potties include weekly cleaning?

Monthly construction terms in Georgia standardly include one service visit per week, which is what Appendix Table 1 assumes when it states its minimum unit counts. Additional visits beyond the included schedule typically run $25–$75 each. Confirm the visit count in writing rather than accepting a description like regular service.

Can a porta potty be moved as a construction site progresses?

Yes, and on phased sites it usually has to be. Relocation within a site typically runs $50–$125 per move. Subdivision build-outs where units follow the active phase are the common case, and building the expected moves into the original quote avoids surprise charges later.

What is a high-rise or crane-liftable porta potty?

A unit built to be lifted to a working deck by crane, used where a pump truck cannot service a unit at height. It comes down for servicing rather than being serviced in place. These are standard on Midtown and Westside Atlanta high-rise work and price above a ground-level unit.

Do I need units during site prep before construction starts?

Georgia defines a construction site as a development area where building construction, repair, or land improvement is taking place — and land improvement includes grading and site prep. So the requirement attaches to clearing and grading crews before a foundation is poured, not only once vertical construction begins.
