How many porta potties does OSHA require for farm workers?
OSHA 29 CFR 1928.110 calls for 1 toilet and 1 handwashing facility for every 20 field workers. Both must sit within a quarter-mile walk of where the crew works. A detasseling crew of 45 needs at least 3 toilets and 3 hand-wash stations.
| Field crew size | Toilets | Hand-wash stations |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 20 | 1 | 1 |
| 21–40 | 2 | 2 |
| 45 | 3 | 3 |
| 60 | 3 | 3 |
| 85 | 5 | 5 |
Divide the crew by 20 and round up. The rule covers farms with 11 or more workers doing hand labor in the field on any given day. Read the full text on the OSHA 1928.110 field sanitation page.
That count is the legal minimum. Our recommendation is to move units as the crew moves, so the walk stays short even on a big section. This is not legal advice, so confirm details with your farm safety advisor.
Can a porta potty be delivered to a field with no address?
A porta potty can go to a field with no street address when you send a GPS pin or clear directions. Give the nearest road, the field entrance and which corner to use. The driver needs firm ground within about 10 feet of where the truck can stop.
- Drop a pin on your phone map and text it with the order.
- Pick a spot on a field road, headland or gravel pad, not in a wet low spot.
- Field gates must be at least 48 inches wide for a standard unit.
- Tie a flag on a fence post or stake so the driver sees the spot from the road.
After a hard rain, the truck may not reach a spot deep in the field. Pick a backup spot near the road.
Do you have towable toilets for moving between fields?
Towable farm toilets are standard units mounted on a small trailer. A towable unit lets a crew hitch up and follow the work, which helps keep the toilet inside the quarter-mile walk OSHA sets. Each towable unit holds about 60 gallons and gets pumped once a week, like a ground unit.
Towable units fit crews that change fields every day or two. Irrigation crews checking pivots, fence crews and walking crews all move fast across a section.
- Text the new GPS pin before service day so the driver finds the unit.
- Leave the trailer on a spot the service truck can reach.
- Keep the trailer level so the door closes and the unit stays steady.
For crews that stay in one place, a standard porta potty staked to the ground works the same way.
Will a porta potty blow over in a field?
Central Nebraska wind can tip a porta potty on open farm ground, especially an empty unit on bare dirt. Units on farm ground get staked or strapped at no charge. A standard unit weighs only about 165 pounds, so anchoring matters more than shelter.
- Set the door facing away from the strongest wind so the door does not slam.
- Never strap a unit to a center pivot tower, since the tower moves.
- Stay out of low spots that flood during spring storms.
- A tree line or the lee side of a grain bin cuts the wind.
When should I book porta potties for harvest or detasseling?
Harvest runs September through November, so book harvest units in August. Detasseling crews work in July, so book those units in June. Next-day delivery is normal, but a firm start date helps when 2 or more crews start in the same week.
| Season | Farm work | Planning tip |
|---|---|---|
| June–July | Detasseling crews | Plan 1 toilet and 1 hand-wash station per 20 workers; July heat may call for extra service |
| Summer | Irrigation checks | A towable unit follows the pivots |
| September–November | Harvest crews and grain sites | Place units near the grain cart route or bins |
| November on | Late harvest | Tanks get a salt-brine mix against freezing |
Detasseling crews are often large, so the 1-per-20 rule adds up fast. July heat also fills tanks quicker, and an extra service visit costs $75.
November harvest weeks bring the first hard freezes. Hand-wash stations with water are swapped for sanitizer when temperatures drop hard.
Pair each toilet with a 2-sink hand-wash station to meet the field rule.
Can I rent porta potties for a farm auction or field day?
A farm auction or field day rents like an event, at one flat rate from drop-off to pickup. A standard unit starts at $175 inside Hastings, plus a trip fee from $45 to about $150 farther out. Plan about 1 unit per 50 guests for up to 4 hours.
- Set units near the parking area on firm ground, not in the sale ring path.
- Add a hand-wash station if a lunch stand or food truck serves the crowd.
- Rent at least 1 wheelchair-accessible unit for older bidders.
The sizing guide for crowds covers longer sales. See event porta potty rental for drop-off and pickup timing, and the cost guide for trip fees by distance.

Farm & Harvest questions
How far from the crew can the toilet be?
OSHA 1928.110 sets a quarter-mile walk as the limit for field toilets and hand-wash stations. On a large section, that can mean 2 or more units or a towable unit that moves with the crew. Measure the walking distance, not the straight line.
Can you service a unit that moves every few days?
Weekly service follows the unit when you text its new GPS pin before the service day. Keep the unit on a field road or headland the truck can reach. A towable unit on a muddy field edge may need moving to firm ground first.
What does a farm porta potty cost for harvest?
A standard unit starts at $165 per 28 days with weekly service. A September-through-November harvest runs about 3 to 4 cycles. Farm ground outside Hastings adds a trip fee from $45 up to about $150.
Do detasseling crews need hand-wash stations too?
OSHA 1928.110 pairs every toilet with a handwashing facility, 1 of each per 20 workers. A 2-sink hand-wash station holds about 18 gallons of fresh water with soap and paper towels. Stations start at $135 per 28 days with weekly refill.
Can you deliver to a grain bin site or elevator lot?
Grain sites and bin yards work well when the unit sits on firm gravel within about 10 feet of the truck. Keep the unit clear of auger paths and truck lanes. A flag on the spot helps the driver place the unit right.
What happens if harvest runs into a freeze?
Units get a salt-brine and antifreeze mix in the tank starting about November, so waste stays liquid. Water-filled hand-wash stations change over to sanitizer during a hard freeze. The weekly pump-out keeps going as fields finish.
