What permits apply to a porta potty in Wilkes-Barre?

Private driveways, yards, lots and jobsites in Wilkes-Barre need no permit for a portable toilet. A unit on a public street or sidewalk needs the right-of-way permit listed below, and events on public property need the special-event approval shown. Jobsite building permits come from the office in the third row. This is the published rule, not legal advice; confirm with the office before you book.

Does weather in Wilkes-Barre change where a unit goes or how it is serviced?

Weather in Wilkes-Barre changes placement and service, not the unit. Average annual snowfall 45.1 in (vs 33.1 in Allentown). Susquehanna River reached a record 42.6 ft at Wilkes-Barre during Tropical Storm Lee, Sept 2011; the levee system held. Hardiness zone 6b (7a near river). We plan the spot and the service schedule around those numbers before delivery, so the unit stays usable.

For Wilkes-Barre that means antifreeze on every winter visit, service every other week in deep-snow stretches, a plowed path within 25 feet of the unit, and no flush units from December through February. Soft or sloped ground is the one condition that stops a restroom trailer in any season; standard units go on a plywood pad instead.

Wilkes-Barre porta potty rental questions

Who do I call for a Wilkes-Barre event permit?

The City's Office of Special Events on the 3rd floor of City Hall at 40 East Market St (570-208-4149). The page says the event holder is responsible for removing recyclables and cardboard and that alcohol is not allowed in city parks; it does not state a toilet ratio, so we size by the PSAI method and name the units on your application.

Can units go near the River Common or Kirby Park during a flood watch?

Not below the levee line. The Susquehanna hit a record 42.6 feet at Wilkes-Barre during Tropical Storm Lee in September 2011; the levees held, but anything on the river side of them was underwater. We set riverfront event units on the city side of the levee and move them if a flood watch is posted.

Do you deliver porta potties to Central City (Downtown) and the rest of Wilkes-Barre?

We deliver to every Wilkes-Barre ZIP code (18701, 18702, 18703, 18705, 18706, 18710, 18711, 18762, 18764, 18765, 18766, 18767, 18769, 18773) and to the sections listed above, from Central City (Downtown) to Barney Farms. Wilkes-Barre is about 65.6 miles and 85 minutes from our yard at 312 Brodhead Ave, Bethlehem, PA 18015, which puts it in our long-haul zone (60–100 miles): delivery and pickup $245 round trip per order.

How fast can a porta potty arrive in Wilkes-Barre?

Delivery by appointment, usually within three business days. We take 28-day rentals, events of four or more units and restroom trailers. The route day for Wilkes-Barre is by appointment. Call (610) 228-7864 with your ZIP and dates and we confirm the delivery date on the call; the driver phones 30 minutes before arrival.
