A one-day charity scramble for 100 golfers needs at least 4 to 5 standard units spread across the front nine, back nine and clubhouse, plus one ADA unit near the cart staging area. Joliet Porta Pros builds the count around your field size, not a guess.
Start with the field size, then split it by hole loops instead of clustering everything at the clubhouse. A 72-golfer shotgun start behaves differently than a walking 18-hole event, so our placement guide walks through both. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the baseline ratio for worksites at 1 toilet for 20 workers or fewer, and tournament organizers in Joliet use that same math as a starting point for spectators and staff, then add units for golfers on the course itself. Most 18-hole charity events want one restroom near holes 4 through 6, another near 12 through 14, and a bank of two to three by the clubhouse or scoring tent. Every cluster needs an accessible option: ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least 5 percent of clustered single-user units to be accessible, never fewer than one. That means even a small event with three units on the back nine needs one ADA-compliant unit in that group, not just one for the whole course. Our ADA accessible porta potty page covers the 60 inch turning clearance under ADA Standards section 304.3.1 and the 32 inch minimum door width under ADA Standards section 404.2.3, both of which matter on a cart path with uneven turf. Volunteer marshals and beverage cart staff count separately from golfers, so don't forget them when you request a quote. If your event runs a pro-am format with sponsors and media, event restroom rental planning tends to run a unit or two heavier than a members-only outing.
Standard units handle most fairway locations, but clubhouse areas and VIP tents often call for something nicer. A standard porta potty rental uses a 60 to 70 gallon holding tank inside a unit that's roughly 44 by 48 inches on the ground and about 92 inches tall, small enough to tuck behind a maintenance shed or cart barn without blocking sightlines. For hole-side placement near Joliet's public and private courses, ground stability matters more than most planners expect; ADA Standards section 302.1 calls for stable, firm, slip-resistant surfaces, which rules out soft rough or freshly aerated turf. If your tournament has a hospitality tent or a title sponsor, a deluxe flushable porta potty gives guests a flush handle and a nicer interior instead of a standard chemical tank. Bigger events with a full pro-am weekend sometimes bring in a 2 stall restroom trailer or 4 stall restroom trailer for the clubhouse zone, since trailers handle higher traffic without a line backing up onto the cart path. Pair any of these with a handwashing station rental, since 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at washing stations, and hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy it. Joliet events near catering tents should also look at portable sink rental options for the concession crew.
Yes, and the earlier the better for a Saturday or Sunday shotgun start. Weekend tournament restrooms carry a delivery premium, so locking in dates a few weeks out avoids scrambling for emergency porta potty rental service the week of. Delivery trucks need about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the vehicle to place a unit safely, which matters on narrow cart paths or tight service roads behind a Joliet clubhouse. If your course sits near Crest Hill, about 5.4 miles northeast of Joliet, or Shorewood, roughly 4.4 miles west, driveway and access details still need to go to our dispatch team so the truck route gets planned right, since course access roads vary a lot from public streets. Golf events with overnight setup, like a two-day member-guest tournament, often add temporary fencing around restroom clusters or staging areas to keep golf carts and foot traffic separated overnight. Larger festivals or fairs held at the same grounds later in the season sometimes reuse the same restroom layout described in our county fair restrooms guide. For multi-day charity tournaments, ask about monthly porta potty rental rates if the course wants units to stay through a full weekend series rather than a single round.

Book 3 to 4 weeks out for a weekend tournament, longer for a title sponsor event with a hospitality tent. Weekend delivery runs a premium over weekday rates because of driver scheduling. Course access details, like cart path width, should go to dispatch as soon as the date is set.
Yes. ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit per cluster, even with just two or three standard units grouped together. Skipping it isn't optional once units are clustered near a tee box or the clubhouse.
Yes, if there's a stable, level surface near a cart path or service road. Trailers work best near the clubhouse rather than out on fairways. Check our restroom trailer rental page for stall counts and footprint details before committing to a spot.
Standard units use a 60 to 70 gallon tank and chemical treatment, fine for most fairway locations. Deluxe units flush and feel nicer, better suited to VIP tents or clubhouse zones where sponsors and guests gather. Pricing reflects that difference across daily and weekly rentals.
Yes, service extends to towns like Plainfield, about 12.2 miles northwest, and New Lenox, roughly 10.9 miles east. Check our service areas page for the full coverage list before booking a course outside city limits.
