How far is Mogul from Reno and what's the delivery fee?
Mogul lies 5.9 miles southwest of Reno, about a nine-minute drive from downtown. Delivery to that distance runs $50 to $150 per week, depending on rental length and how many units you need. A weekend delivery costs more than a weekday one because our trucks book fast on Fridays and Saturdays. Call ahead if you're planning a Friday pickup or Monday setup; we'll confirm the truck schedule and give you a firm date.
The drive from Reno out to Mogul is straightforward. Highway 431 heads west and you're there. That short distance means we can service your site weekly without eating up a full day in the truck. Our service areas page shows where else we go, and you can check if your exact Mogul address is on a regular route.
What portable toilet types work for Mogul construction and event rentals?
Standard units are the workhorse for construction crews and small events. They're about 44 by 48 inches on the ground and stand 92 inches tall, so they fit most job sites without taking up a whole acre. A standard porta potty rental runs $130 to $500 per week depending on how many you rent and how long. OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) sets toilet counts for construction: one facility for 20 workers or fewer, one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up. That rule tells you how many units to order.
Deluxe flushable units cost more but they're worth it for events where people stay longer. A deluxe flushable porta potty runs $150 to $290 per week. They have an electric flush and hand soap, so guests feel like they're using a real bathroom. If your Mogul event has families, weddings, or corporate groups, deluxe is the call. We also offer ADA accessible porta potties if you need compliant restrooms. Those units meet ADA Standards section 213.2, which requires at least one accessible unit in a cluster. ADA units run $120 to $240 per week.
Do I need a permit to place a porta potty in Mogul?
Placement in Mogul's public right of way needs confirming with the city before we drop a unit. We can help you track down the local requirement, but the rule itself isn't published in a central spot online. Call the Mogul town office or the Washoe County public works department and ask whether a single portable toilet needs a permit if it sits on your private property. Most residential and small commercial jobs don't, but if you're blocking sidewalk or road shoulder, the city will want a form signed first.
If your job is on private land behind a fence, no permit applies. That's true whether you're doing a home renovation porta potty or a small construction site services job. We've placed units for decades in the Reno area and we know where the red tape lives. Tell us your address and we'll give you a straight answer: permit needed or not. Don't delay your project waiting for something that doesn't exist.
What maintenance does Reno Porta Pros provide for Mogul rentals?
Service visits follow the baseline interval set by ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, which calls for one visit per week for up to 10 users over a 40-hour week. That keeps the tank pumped, the toilet paper stocked, and the hand sanitizer refilled. If your crew is bigger, or if the unit runs 24 hours a day, we come more often. Construction sites sometimes need twice-a-week service. Just tell us the headcount and we'll set the cadence.
Each service run takes about 15 minutes on-site. We pump the tank, scrub the bowl, restock supplies, and check the door lock. If something breaks during the rental, we fix it same-day if we can, or swap the unit for a fresh one. That promise keeps your job moving and keeps your team from improvising a bathroom in the brush. We also rent handwashing stations if your Mogul site has workers applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities where those materials are in use. A portable sink with soap and paper towels runs $60 to $220 per week depending on the duration.
FAQ
Can I rent a porta potty for just one day in Mogul?
Yes. A standard unit costs $100 to $350 for a single day. Delivery to Mogul adds $100 to $500 depending on truck availability. Weekend rates are higher because the trucks are booked tight. If you need it for a Friday afternoon tailgate or a Saturday site inspection, book by Wednesday.
What if my Mogul crew has 50 workers on a construction job?
OSHA 1926.51(c)(1) requires one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers at that crew size. You'd need at least two toilet seats and two urinals, which means renting two deluxe units or one restroom trailer. A trailer is pricier but it's one delivery, one service call, and you're guaranteed to pass an OSHA inspection.
Does Reno Porta Pros service porta potties in Mogul on weekends?
We service on weekends but the fee is higher because our trucks run skeleton crews. Tell us the job timeline when you call and we'll lock in the service days. Most Mogul jobs are Monday-through-Friday, so weekend service is the exception.
How long does a septic pump truck take to get to Mogul?
About nine minutes from central Reno. If you need septic pumping service for a home or small business in Mogul, call early in the day and we'll fit you in. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, so it's not an emergency most of the time, but if you're getting backup you need it now.
What's the difference between a porta potty and a restroom trailer for my Mogul event?
A porta potty is portable, cheap, and fine for short events or crews. A restroom trailer rental is bigger, has real plumbing, climate control, and flushing toilets. Trailers cost $150 to $1,650 per week for a 2-stall unit. If your Mogul event runs all day or overnight, or if you're hosting guests who expect comfort, a trailer is worth every penny.
