What if the ground near my Harvard site is soft or wet?

Soft or wet ground near a Harvard site means the porta potty goes on the closest firm spot, within about 10 feet of the truck. The truck can't cross soft grass after rain. Gravel, packed dirt and pavement are the safest spots for a 4-by-4-foot unit.

Harvard sits in the Rainwater Basin, where shallow wetlands fill with water in wet years. Fields and yards near those low spots can stay soft well into spring. A loaded service truck sinks fast in that ground.

Before delivery day, look at your spot with fresh eyes:

• Does water stand there after rain?
• Do tire tracks stay in the grass?
• Is there a gravel drive or pad close by?

If you answer yes to the first two, pick another spot. The driver will set the unit on firm ground even if it is a little farther from the work. Mark the spot with a cone or flag.

Weekly service needs the same access. If a service road turns to mud, tell us and we will plan around the weather. Read more answers on our porta potty questions page.

Can Harvard farm crews get a job site toilet in the field?

Harvard farm crews can get a job site toilet set in the field, often the next day. Farm work falls under OSHA 29 CFR 1928.110: 1 toilet and 1 handwashing facility per 20 workers, within a quarter-mile walk. A towable unit can move between fields with the crew.

Fields around Harvard are big and spread out. A unit at the farmyard may be more than a quarter-mile from the crew. The towable unit solves that, since the crew can pull it to the next field.

Set the unit on the edge of a field road, not in the crop rows. Keep it off ground that floods after a heavy rain. A GPS pin gets the driver to the right field entrance.

Rentals of 28 days include weekly service. The driver pumps the tank, cleans and sanitizes surfaces, and restocks paper and hand sanitizer. A hand-wash station meets the washing part of the rule and gets a weekly refill.

The OSHA number is the legal floor, not advice for every crew. See our farm porta potty rental page and the handwashing stations page for setups.

How do I book porta potties for a Harvard park event?

Book porta potties for a Harvard park event about 1 week ahead for May through September Saturdays. Units drop Thursday or Friday and get picked up Monday. Some towns don't allow units in a park overnight, so check with the village before you pick dates.

Ballgames, reunions and town celebrations bring crowds to local parks. Park restrooms are often small or locked. A few portable units keep lines short.

If the village won't allow overnight units, tell us when you book. Our normal plan is a Thursday or Friday drop-off, so a same-day drop and pickup needs to be set up ahead. We send an itemized quote in writing that you can give to the village office.

• 100 guests, up to 4 hours: about 2 units.
• 200 guests, 4 to 8 hours: about 5 units.
• Food served: add 1 hand-wash station per 4 units.
• Make at least 1 unit wheelchair-accessible.

Plan your count with our how many porta potties guide. Then confirm the rules with your park or permit office.
