Santee Porta Pros rents portable handwashing stations with 5 gallon fresh water tanks, foot pumps, soap and paper towel dispensers, for job sites, food booths and events. Units pair with any standard porta potty rental and typically run alongside a portable toilet rental order. Delivery covers Santee and nearby towns.
A handwashing station is a self contained portable sink with its own fresh water supply, usually a 5 gallon handwash station or a larger tank unit with foot pumps for water and soap so nobody touches a handle with dirty hands. Some people search for this setup as a hand washing sink portable, a portable sink hand wash unit, a handwash station portable, or a portable handwashing sink, and they all describe the same basic box. Under 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), washing facilities need soap and towels or a hand drying device on site; hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy that requirement. If your crew is applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that specific exposure, not just a bottle of sanitizer clipped to a fence post. Construction sites also fall under OSHA 1926.51(c) for toilet counts, and most GCs in Santee order handwashing stations at the same time as their porta john rental so both boxes get checked in one delivery. Food vendors, farm crews, and film sets all ask for this pairing. If you are trying to figure out how many units your crew or event actually needs, our how many porta potties do i need guide walks through headcount math, and the OSHA portable toilet requirements page covers the sanitation side in more depth.
Pricing depends on unit size, rental length and whether you are adding it to an existing order like a dumpster rental or temporary fence rental. Most Santee customers bundle a handwash station with a standard porta potty rental rather than renting it alone, since delivery is shared. A service fee often applies for refills and restocking soap and towels between visits, similar to the service intervals used for standard porta potty rental units under the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline of one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week. Ask about bundling with an ADA accessible porta potty if your site needs an accessible route too, since ADA Standards 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster of single-user toilets. Check current numbers on our porta potty rental cost page and porta potty rental per day page before you order.
| service | duration | typical price |
|---|---|---|
| service fee (refill/restock) | day | 175 |
| service fee | week | 60 |
| service fee | month | 150 |
| delivery fee | day | 150 |
Longer terms cost more in total but less per day. A monthly porta potty rental paired with a handwash station is common on multi-month builds around Santee.
Placement matters more than people expect. ADA Standards 302.1 requires the ground under and around an accessible unit to be stable, firm and slip resistant, which rules out loose gravel or soft turf near the sink. If your handwash station sits next to an ADA unit, ADA Standards 304.3.1 calls for a 60 inch turning circle nearby, and ADA Standards 308.2.1 sets a 48 inch maximum reach height for controls, both worth checking before you plant the unit for the season. A handwash station sign posted at eye level helps crews find it fast, especially near a restroom trailer rental with multiple stalls. Keep the unit within a short walk of the work zone; field sanitation rules under OSHA 1928.110 for agricultural crews set that walk at a quarter mile maximum to one facility per 20 workers, a good rule of thumb even off the farm. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground conditions, clearance and delivery access in more detail, and pairs well with the dumpster sizes and dimensions page if you are planning a full site layout with a roll-off dumpster rental on the same lot.
Yes, short-term rentals are common for weddings, festivals and one-day events, and Santee Porta Pros delivers and picks up on the same schedule as your event restroom rental order. Weekend rates apply for Friday-through-Sunday events and run higher per day than a weeklong booking, so a one-day wedding restroom rental add-on costs less overall than renting for a full week. Festival organizers in Santee often add a handwash station near food trucks even when the main festival restroom rental units are spread across the grounds, since OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) calls for an adequate supply of potable water at any place of employment, food vendors included. A concert restroom rental or golf tournament restrooms order can include the same setup. If your event runs into county fair territory, check the county fair restrooms page, and for a marathon route, the marathon and race restrooms page covers spacing along a course. Same-day and emergency add-ons are possible; ask when you request a quote through request a quote.
No. Most units are self contained with an onboard 5 gallon tank, foot pump and gravity fed soap dispenser, so no hose bib or hookup is needed. Larger event setups can use bigger tanks. Ask about tank size when you book through handwashing station rental or bundle with a portable sink rental; some crews specifically ask for a bradley handwash station by name, and we can source something comparable for that spec.
A handwash station has running water, soap and towels, meeting 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2). A hand sanitizer station rental is gel or foam only and does not meet that standard on its own. Job sites usually need the former, not just the latter. Bigger crews sometimes ask for an industrial handwash station with multiple basins instead of a single sink, and that is a different order than a sanitizer stand.
Weekly is standard for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week under the ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 baseline. Busier sites near Bostonia or Winter Gardens, both under 7 miles from Santee, often add a mid-week refill visit during peak construction season.
Often yes, especially for food service or paint crews. A restroom trailer rental has interior sinks, but exterior work zones near temporary power pole setups or paint stations need their own OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) compliant handwashing point close to the work.
Yes. Santee Porta Pros delivers to Bostonia, 4.8 miles southeast, Eucalyptus Hills, 5.4 miles northeast, Winter Gardens, 6.6 miles east, Lemon Grove, 11.0 miles south, and Poway, 19.1 miles north. Check service areas for full coverage details.
