Hammond Porta Pros sets up restrooms for farms, orchards and hand-labor crews across Hammond, IN, sized to your crew count and field layout. A standard unit runs $100 to $350 a day, and federal rule OSHA 1928.110 sets the baseline: one facility per 20 workers, reachable within a quarter mile.
Start with your headcount, then work backward from the walking distance rule. OSHA 1928.110 requires field sanitation for hand-labor employees in agriculture: potable water, a toilet and handwashing access, at a ratio of one facility per 20 workers, and no worker should have to walk more than a quarter mile to reach one. That is different from construction sites, which fall under OSHA portable toilet requirements and the ratios in OSHA 1926.51(c)(1): one toilet for 20 workers or fewer, then a toilet plus urinal per 40 up to 200 workers.
If you run pickers across multiple fields near Hammond, that quarter-mile rule usually means more than one cluster of units, not one big bank of them at the barn. A standard porta potty rental covers most crews fine. Bigger operations with packing sheds or on-site staff for a season often step up to a deluxe flushable porta potty or look at monthly porta potty rental pricing instead of paying by the day. If you are not sure how many stations your acreage needs, our how many porta potties do I need guide walks through the math with real crew numbers.
Water matters too. OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at any place of employment, so if your field lacks running water, pair the toilet order with a handwashing station rental or a portable sink rental rather than relying on a jug on a tailgate.
A single unit for a seasonal crew runs $100 to $350 a day depending on service frequency, or $125 to $325 a month for longer harvest work, based on our measured pricing across 799 rental datapoints. Delivery adds $100 to $500 depending on how far the truck has to travel down field roads, and most farms outside city limits pay toward the higher end of that band.

| standard | month | 125 | 200 | 325 |

Farms running a harvest season of several weeks usually save by locking in a weekly or monthly rate instead of restarting a daily order every few days. Check monthly porta potty rental or the full porta potty rental cost breakdown before you commit. If your budget is tight and you just need something for a short push, porta potty rental per day pricing might fit better than a month-long contract you do not need. Service interval matters for cost too: ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets one weekly service visit as the baseline for up to 10 users over a 40 hour week, so a bigger crew or longer hours in the field pushes you toward twice-weekly service and a higher line item.
Hammond sits close enough to several neighboring towns that delivery routing rarely adds much. Calumet City is 4.2 miles southwest, East Chicago is 4.5 miles northeast, and Munster is 6.3 miles south, so a farm anywhere in that stretch is a short haul for our trucks.
Yes, if your crew handles produce by hand or works around chemical applications. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires washing facilities stocked with soap and towels or a hand-drying device; hand sanitizer alone does not meet that standard. If your operation sprays herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) also applies, since it covers washing facilities specifically for employees applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides where contaminants may be present.
A hand sanitizer station rental is fine as a supplement near a picking row, but it does not replace real soap-and-water washing under the OSHA rule above. Pair a toilet cluster with a proper handwashing station rental at the same location so crews wash before breaks and lunch. Some farms with packing operations also need a grease trap serviced if they run a wash-and-pack kitchen on site, which falls under grease trap pumping rather than the field units.
For farms with a septic system feeding a farmhouse or bunkhouse, a 1,000 gallon residential tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years depending on tank size and household size. If pumping is overdue, our septic pumping service and septic tank cleaning crews handle that separately from the field restroom order, and how often to pump a septic tank covers the signs to watch for.
Two to three weeks ahead is safest, especially if you need several units delivered the same week local orchards and farms are placing their own orders. Hammond Porta Pros can sometimes turn around faster, but harvest weeks book up fast across the region.
Yes. A single standard porta potty rental works fine for a small crew, and daily, weekly or monthly terms are all available depending on how long the job runs.
Tell us when you request a quote. Our drivers need reasonable truck access, and placement far off a farm road may mean walking the unit in or picking a spot closer to the access lane.
If any worker needs one, yes. ADA Standards 213.2 requires that where single-user portable units are clustered, at least 5 percent, and never fewer than one, must be accessible. See ADA accessible porta potty for specs.
