Work backwards from opening time
Leave time for equipment setup before guests arrive. Discuss attendance, event duration, handwashing and accessible options. Put restrooms on the venue plan alongside food service and seating, then agree a collection window when suppliers can get back onto the site.
Your Dickinson rental checklist
- Exact delivery address and an on-site contact.
- First and last rental dates, plus any access windows.
- Expected users, hours of use and existing restroom access.
- Handwashing, accessible facilities or utility connections.
Send what you know now; you can discuss the remaining details when the rental team responds. A request does not reserve equipment or confirm delivery. Options and arrangements for the specific address are confirmed before booking.

A gathering may finish before the venue is available for collection. Include the teardown schedule and the time other suppliers will be removing equipment so the restroom pickup can be discussed around real access.
When comparing a standard porta potty with an upgraded unit or trailer, check the actual facilities included, the placement space and any connections needed. Handwashing stations and accessible portable toilets can be discussed alongside the main rental rather than added as an afterthought.
Questions worth asking before booking
Do event dates include setup and pickup?
The intended use dates and delivery or collection windows need to be agreed separately. Share venue opening hours and supplier restrictions when requesting the rental.
Should I request handwashing separately?
Tell the team what handwashing is already available and ask what the chosen units include. A separate station may be part of the equipment mix discussed for the event.
