Farm and agricultural restrooms in Thornton run about 100 to 150 dollars a day or 200 to 325 dollars a month for a standard unit, with weekly rates from 130 to 500 dollars depending on term length and how many units you need across the property. Thornton Porta Pros services fields, barns and packing sheds on the same schedule as job sites.
Hand-labor operations fall under OSHA 1928.110, which calls for one toilet facility per 20 employees, reachable within a quarter mile walk, plus potable water. That quarter-mile rule matters more in agriculture than on a construction site, because crews spread across acreage and a single unit parked at the barn does nobody any good if the crew is picking three fields over. Thornton Porta Pros places standard porta potty rentals at intervals that keep every work zone inside that walking distance, then moves them as the harvest or planting schedule shifts. If your operation runs closer to a packing facility than open field, the ratio in OSHA 1926.51(c) is worth checking too, since it scales differently at higher headcounts. We size the count using the same worksheet we use for construction site services, because the math is the same problem: bodies on site, hours worked, distance between them. For smaller operations, one porta john rental near the equipment yard and a second by the far field covers most day labor crews without overbuilding. Ask about a monthly porta potty rental if the season runs long, since the per-day cost drops once you commit past a few weeks.
Yes. Field sanitation rules under OSHA 1928.110 pair toilets with handwashing access, and 29 CFR 1910.141(d)2 specifies soap and towels or a hand drying device, not hand sanitizer alone, for facilities that fall under that standard. A handwashing station rental set next to each restroom cluster satisfies both the water and the soap requirement without extra plumbing. If your crew handles pesticide application, herbicides or similar chemicals, add washing facilities under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1), which specifically covers workers applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. That is a separate trigger from ordinary field labor. We pair a portable sink rental with restroom clusters on most row-crop and orchard jobs in Thornton, since chemical handling is common enough that it is easier to plan for than retrofit. A hand sanitizer station rental is a fine supplement between wash breaks but it does not replace the soap-and-water requirement on its own. Water refills happen on the same route as toilet service, so nothing on the property runs dry mid-week.
Placement depends on ground and reach, same as any site. A standard unit sits on a footprint of about 44 by 48 inches and stands roughly 92 inches tall, which fits along a fence line, a field edge, or next to a loading dock without blocking equipment. ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for a stable, firm, slip-resistant surface, so we skip soft turf and loose gravel when we can and set units on packed ground or a leveling mat instead. If any part of your crew or visiting public needs accessible service, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster, even a small one, and our ADA accessible porta potty option meets that with a 60 inch turning circle inside per ADA 304.3.1. Delivery trucks need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind them to set a unit or a roll-off dumpster rental for harvest debris, so gate width and turnaround room matter more on a farm than a paved lot. We route from our Thornton yard on the same trucks that service Northglenn, about 3.0 miles west, and Brighton, roughly 11.3 miles east, so seasonal farms outside town proper are already on a regular loop. If you are also clearing a barn or fencing off a work zone, look at temporary fence rental and construction dumpster rental options while you are setting up the site.
ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one service visit per week as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Farms with heavier seasonal crews often need two visits weekly. We adjust the route as headcount changes through planting and harvest, so service matches the work, not a fixed calendar.
Yes. A single standard porta potty rental covers crews of 20 or fewer under OSHA 1928.110. Place it within a quarter mile of the work area and pair it with a handwashing station. Most small operations in Thornton run exactly this setup through a full growing season.
Monthly rates for a standard unit run 200 to 325 dollars, cheaper per day than short-term rental. See full pricing on monthly porta potty rental or check our general porta potty rental cost breakdown before you commit to a season-long contract.
Placement rules can depend on where the unit sits relative to any public right of way, and that needs confirming with the city directly. We do not guess at permit numbers. Check our porta potty permit requirements page before delivery day.
Yes, that is normal. We relocate units as work shifts between fields, keeping every zone inside the quarter-mile walk OSHA 1928.110 calls for. Just give us a heads up a day ahead so the route truck can plan the stop.
