Planning a backyard wedding or a reception at an outdoor venue without indoor restrooms? Town ‘n’ Country Portable Toilet Rental provides flushable porta potties, restroom trailers, ADA units, and hand washing stations for weddings across Tampa Bay.
We help you pick the right setup for your guest count, place it where guests can find it, and keep it clean from the ceremony through the last dance.
Many couples in Hillsborough County marry on family land, at a friend’s lakefront home, or at a rustic venue with limited plumbing. Each setting needs its own restroom plan.
A home septic or sewer line is not built for 100 guests in one evening. Renting restrooms keeps the house bathrooms free for the wedding party and saves the plumbing from overflow.
Rural and rustic venues often have one small restroom or none at all. We deliver units on firm ground near the reception area and plan a route for our truck to reach them.
Ceremonies near the water or at a park pavilion may be a long walk from the nearest building. A few units close to the seating area keep guests from wandering off between the ceremony and dinner.
Most wedding couples choose between two upgrades over a standard porta potty. Both work well, and the choice comes down to your budget, your guest list, and the style of the day.
A flushable porta potty has a foot-pump flush and a fresh water tank, which keeps the bowl clean and limits odor. Many models include a small sink inside. They fit casual and rustic weddings and take up little space on a lawn.
A restroom trailer has private stalls with flushing toilets, running water sinks, mirrors, lighting, and air conditioning. Guests in formal wear appreciate the comfort, especially in Tampa summer heat. Depending on the model, a trailer may need a water hookup or a power source near the parking spot.
For larger guest lists, some couples pair a restroom trailer with one or two flushable units to cut down on lines. Plan on at least one ADA accessible portable toilet if any guests use a wheelchair or walker.
Weddings tend to run five to six hours from ceremony to send-off, and most receptions serve drinks. That means guests use the restroom more often than at a short daytime event. The table below reflects those longer hours.
| Guests | Wedding Length | Suggested Units | Add-Ons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 50 | 4 to 6 hours | 2 flushable porta potties | 1 hand washing station |
| 51 to 100 | 4 to 6 hours | 3 flushable porta potties, or 1 small restroom trailer | 1 hand washing station, 1 ADA unit if needed |
| 101 to 150 | 5 to 6 hours | 4 to 5 flushable porta potties, or 1 restroom trailer | 1 to 2 hand washing stations, 1 ADA unit if needed |
| 151 to 250 | 5 to 7 hours | 1 restroom trailer plus 2 flushable porta potties | 2 hand washing stations, 1 ADA unit |
| 251 to 400 | 6 to 8 hours | 2 restroom trailers, or 1 trailer plus 4 flushable units | 2 to 3 hand washing stations, 1 to 2 ADA units |
Your venue, bar service, and timeline can shift these numbers. Call (727) 427-9704 and we will help you settle on a setup that fits.
Good placement keeps restrooms out of your photos without sending guests on a hike. Walk the site with your planner or photographer and pick the spot before delivery day.
Set units behind the reception tent, beside the house, or past a row of shrubs. Avoid the backdrop behind the ceremony arch and the main angle your photographer will shoot from.
Aim for a short, level walk from the dance floor and dinner tables. Guests in heels and older relatives will thank you. Keep the path clear of tent stakes, cords, and soft spots in the lawn.
Receptions run past sunset, so plan lighting along the path and around the units. String lights, lanterns, or a small light near the door all help. Restroom trailers come with interior lighting, and many need a power source to run it.
Add a hand washing station next to any porta potty setup without a built-in sink. Guests appreciate soap and fresh water before they head back to dinner.
Spring and fall are peak wedding seasons in Tampa Bay, and restroom trailers are the first units to book up. Reserve two to four months ahead for Saturday dates in March, April, October, and November. Flushable units are usually easier to find, though we still suggest booking a few weeks ahead.
Summer weddings bring heat, humidity, and afternoon storms. A climate-controlled trailer keeps guests cool, and we set units on the firmest ground available if the lawn is soft after rain. During hurricane season, from June to November, we keep in touch with you if a storm threatens your date.
We usually deliver the day before your wedding and pick up the day after. That gives your planner time to decorate and keeps the units clean for the start of the event. See how it works for the full booking process.
Plan on four to five flushable porta potties or one restroom trailer, plus a hand washing station. Add an ADA unit if any guests use a wheelchair or walker.
A restroom trailer offers more comfort, with sinks, lighting, and air conditioning. Flushable units cost less and take up less space. Many couples pick based on budget and the formality of the event.
It depends on the model. Some trailers run from onboard tanks, while others connect to a garden hose and a standard outdoor outlet. We confirm what your site needs before delivery.
Book two to four months ahead for spring and fall Saturdays, especially for restroom trailers. Other dates can often be booked a few weeks ahead.
Place them out of the main photo angles but within a short, level walk of the reception. Make sure the spot is reachable by our delivery truck and has lighting for the evening.
For most weddings, a clean, fully stocked unit at delivery is enough for the night. For very large or multi-day celebrations, ask us about adding a service visit.
