Long-Term Job Site Rental: what it covers

Quick answer

A long-term rental keeps portable toilets on a Seattle job site for many weeks or months, with servicing on a schedule and the placement checked through the seasons. Towers in South Lake Union, lab work and the Ballard infill can run for a year or more. The count follows the crew, and the rental runs to the end date agreed with the provider.

Some Seattle builds run for years. Office, lab and residential towers in South Lake Union and the infill across Ballard and Fremont keep crews on site through several seasons, and the toilet has to last that long.

The city's rain and cool summers shape the schedule. Wet months soften the ground and slow the drying of a pad, and dry spells can be short. The placement and the servicing are reviewed through each season rather than set once at the start.

The count follows the crew. A build that grows through framing and shrinks through finishing needs the count changed at each stage, and the change is agreed with the provider in writing.

Warning signs

Signs you need long-term job site rental

Check the unit's door, lock and anchor after each heavy rain, and keep the pad clear of standing water. Confirm the route is lit for the early hours when the crew arrives in the dark.

  • A South Lake Union job that has run four months with the same unit and no seasonal plan
  • A Ballard infill site where the pad has settled after a wet winter
  • A Fremont build where the crew doubled in the spring and the count did not change
  • A Capitol Hill rebuild where the route is blocked by a skip for a week
Our process

How our long-term job site rental visit works

  1. Agree the end date and count

    Write the expected end date and the crew count at each stage, so the rental and the servicing are set for the whole job.

  2. Plan the servicing by season

    Set the interval for the wet season and the dry, with extra visits when the crew is at its largest.

  3. Check the pad after rain

    Inspect the pad after heavy rain and correct any tilt or settling before it affects the door or the lock.

  4. Review the count at each stage

    Reassess the number of units when the crew changes, and agree any change in writing with the provider.

  5. Collect at the end

    Arrange the pickup for the day the job ends, and confirm the time with the site lead before the crew leaves.

A rental kept for the full build, through the wet seasons typical visit

How do the seasons change a long rental?

Wet months soften the ground and slow the drying of a pad, and the use of the units changes with the crew's hours and the weather.

A unit placed in a dry spell can lean after a wet week, and the pad should be checked before the next heavy rain. The servicing interval follows the use and the weather.

Cool summers slow the rate at which units fill compared with a hot city, but a long build still needs its visits, and the schedule is set for the whole year.

Who keeps the route clear?

The site lead or the lot owner keeps the route for the service vehicle clear of materials and parked trucks, and tells the provider where the route is blocked.

A route blocked by material deliveries is the most common cause of a missed visit on a long job. The site lead should plan the route alongside the deliveries so both can use it.

What happens at the end of the job?

The units are collected on the agreed day, and the site is left clear of the rental equipment. The pickup time is confirmed the day before.

The pickup is set once the last crew has left, and the placement area is checked for damage to the pad or the ground before the truck leaves.

How do you handle a crew that changes shift?

A crew on two shifts shares the units, and the servicing is timed for the gap between the shifts, so the unit is clean for the next crew.

A shift change is the busiest moment for a unit, and a visit timed for the gap keeps it ready for the incoming crew.

The provider and the site lead agree the gap in writing, and the schedule is set around it.

What does a long rental need at its midpoint?

A review of the count, the pad and the route, a check of the visit log for missed or late visits, and a meeting with the site lead to adjust the schedule.

A midpoint review catches a schedule that has drifted, and a short meeting is enough to correct it.

The review is written up and filed with the job record.

What changes when the site moves to a second phase?

The count, the placement and the schedule are reviewed for the new phase, and the pad or the route is checked against the new site layout.

A second phase often uses a different part of the lot, so the placement is re-planned, not carried over.

The provider and the site lead agree the changes in writing before the crews move.
