Do porta potties come with hand sanitizer?
A basic standard porta potty rental includes a small built-in gel dispenser inside the unit, but it is not a substitute for a real handwashing setup. OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities specifically where workers apply paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, so a construction crew doing that kind of work needs more than the little dispenser bolted to the toilet wall. That is a separate requirement from general sanitation under OSHA 1926.51(c)(1), which just covers toilet counts. For sites in Miami Gardens running paint crews, roofing coatings, or pest work, we recommend adding a standalone handwashing station rental or a portable sink rental with soap and running water, since 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) specifies soap and towels or a hand-drying device, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy that standard. We stock both gel-only stands and full sink units side by side, and can drop them at the same time as your toilets to save a delivery trip.
How many hand sanitizer stations do I need?
Plan on one station for every cluster of 3 to 4 standard porta potty rental units, or one at each entrance to a food service or first-aid tent. Events in Miami Gardens with foot traffic spread across a large lot, like a fairground layout similar to what you'd see at a county fair restrooms setup, often need a station near every restroom bank plus a couple near concession lines. For construction crews, OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at all places of employment, which is one more reason a standalone sink or sanitizer stand near the break area makes sense alongside your toilets. If you're not sure how many units total your crew or event needs before you even get to sanitizer placement, our how many porta potties do I need guide walks through it, and it pairs well with the porta potty placement guide for figuring out where stations belong relative to your restroom cluster.
What does a hand sanitizer station rental cost?
Pricing runs by duration, and a hand sanitizer dispenser refill is included in the service visit, not billed separately. Delivery is quoted as its own line depending on your site.
| Item | Day | Week | Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delivery fee | $100 - $500 | $100 - $150 | $120 - $420 |
| Service fee | $100 - $300 | $100 - $220 | $100 - $300 |
Weekend rates for delivery run $125 to $540 depending on distance and access. If you're comparing this against a full restroom order, the porta potty rental cost page and the porta potty rental per day breakdown both cover toilet pricing separately from sanitizer add-ons. For longer jobs, a monthly porta potty rental with attached sanitizer stations usually beats renting week to week.
Can I rent just a hand sanitizer station without toilets?
Yes. We deliver stand-alone stations to offices, retail entrances and small events without a toilet order attached. Most single-station orders fall under our day or weekend service fee band, and refills are handled on the same visit schedule as our other units.
Does the sanitizer dispenser need to be refilled during a multi-day event?
For anything past a weekend, we schedule a refill visit similar to how we service toilets, generally following the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit per week for moderate use. Heavy foot traffic events may need refills sooner. Ask when booking.
Is hand sanitizer enough for food vendors?
No. Food handling typically requires actual soap-and-water washing under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), so vendors at events like a festival restroom rental or concert restroom rental booking should pair sanitizer stands with a portable sink, not rely on gel alone.
Do I need a permit to place a sanitizer station in Miami Gardens?
Placement in the public right of way needs confirming with the city. On private property it's generally not an issue, but check our porta potty permit requirements page before finalizing street-facing placement.
Can sanitizer stations go next to an ADA unit?
Yes, and it's smart layout. ADA Standards 213.2 requires at least 5 percent of clustered toilets to be accessible, so keep the path clear per ADA Standards 403.5.1's 36 inch route width. See our ADA accessible porta potty page for full spacing guidance.
