PORTABLE TOILETS

PORTABLE TOILETS

If You’re Searching for a Porta-Jon, Porta-Potty, or Other Portable Toilet in Boone, NC or the High Country — ACH Sanitation Has You Covered

Whether you’re planning a mountain wedding, running a construction project, or hosting a local event, our team makes renting portable toilets simple and stress-free.

1. Why Portable Toilets Matter in the High Country


Whether you’re planning a scenic ceremony in Banner Elk, a festival in West Jefferson, or a construction project in Boone, portable restroom solutions are more than a convenience — they’re a critical part of the experience.


ACH Septic is a family-owned portable toilet rental company serving Watauga, Ashe, and Avery counties. We know the High Country: steep driveways, gravel roads, muddy conditions, long access points, and unpredictable weather.

We’ve delivered and serviced units in Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Foscoe, Jefferson, West Jefferson, and everywhere in between.

2. Types of Portable Toilets Available


Standard Event/Construction Units


Simple, compact, and perfect for:


  • Contractors and trades
  • Outdoor festivals
  • Local fairs
  • Weekend events
  • Recreational gatherings


ADA Accessible Portable Toilets


These units offer:


  • Wheelchair-friendly entry
  • More interior room
  • Safer movement
  • Ideal for families or elderly guests


Many High Country events attract multiple generations — so ADA units are often the most appreciated choice on site.

3. How Many Rental Units You Need


Construction Sites


The industry-standard rule:


  • 1 portable toilet for every 10 workers on the jobsite
  • If you exceed 10 per unit, tanks fill faster, lines form, and cleanliness drops well before weekly service.


Events


Event needs depend on:


  • Guest count
  • Hours
  • Alcohol service
  • Accessibility needs


Weddings in Banner Elk? Brewery gatherings in Boone? A music festival in West Jefferson?

Alcohol increases usage, so ACH Septic may recommend adding more units than you think.


📞 Call 828-616-9674 to speak with our team about your event size and schedule.

4. Standard vs ADA Compliant: What to Choose


Both serve different groups:


  • Standard units—Best for worker teams, general attendees, and routine outdoor use.
  • ADA compliant units—Superior comfort, easy access, and required accommodations for mobility support.
  • ACH Septic does not offer luxury restroom trailers at this time.



If you need rugged, reliable portable toilets or ADA units, we’re your local experts.


5. Handwashing & Hygiene Options


For event compliance or jobsite cleanliness, ACH Sanitation provides two-sink handwash stations.


All toilets include:


  • Toilet paper
  • Hand sanitizer


This is especially important for:


  • Caterers
  • Festivals
  • School events
  • Multi-day jobsites
  • Healthcare or child-centric gatherings


6. Delivery, Setup & Placement


Deliveries are typically completed within 1–2 days of your rental request across Watauga, Ashe, and Avery counties.


Do you need to be onsite?

No. Placement can be handled by phone — we will call you for instructions if needed.


Access matters

Units must be placed where ACH Sanitation’s trucks can:


  • Deliver
  • Service weekly
  • Pick up


Driveways in Foscoe, steep fields in Banner Elk, or gravel jobsites in Jefferson may require adjusted placement.


Setup time

Standard setup typically takes 10–15 minutes depending on weather, terrain, and accessibility.


7. Cleaning, Servicing & Odor Control


We service every unit on a 7-day cycle:


  • Waste is pumped out
  • Fresh water added
  • Toilet paper & sanitizer restocked
  • Disinfectant applied
  • Unit sprayed down internally


Odor control


  • A deodorizer tablet is placed during each cleaning
  • Air fresheners are added for user comfort


Need more frequent servicing during your rental?

Just call 828-616-9674 to request additional cleanings (extra charge applies).

8. Portable Toilets for Events, Weddings & Construction


High Country Weddings & Celebrations


Whether your reception is overlooking Grandfather Mountain or tucked into a valley near Blowing Rock, restroom access has to be:


  • Close to the venue
  • Accessible for older guests
  • Clean and stocked


We ask only the basics:


  • Guest count
  • Duration
  • Alcohol served?
  • Terrain access


With those details, ACH Sanitation sizes and places units strategically.


Construction Sites

In Boone, Jefferson, and Banner Elk, construction setups require small footprint units that handle mud, dust, and traffic. Following the 1-unit-per-10-workers rule prevents overflow and keeps projects moving.

9. Cold Weather & Winter Performance


High Country temperatures can drop well below zero — especially on ridge sites or shaded valleys.


ACH Sanitation's portable toilets are designed for winter use:


  • Anti-freeze formulas in holding tanks
  • Heavy-duty materials
  • Weekly servicing regardless of season


Snow doesn’t stop us from servicing your job or event.

10. Pricing, Deposits & Payment Methods


  • No deposit required
  • Standard cleaning included in the rental price
  • Emergency or off-route deliveries may incur fees
  • Pickup within 24 hours’ notice may also include charges
  • Location does not affect pricing — whether you’re in Boone, Banner Elk, Jefferson, Blowing Rock, or Foscoe.


Payment options include:


  • Cash
  • Check
  • ACH
  • Credit card


11. Moving Units During Rental


Units can be moved as long as you notify the ACH Sanitation office.

This allows us to confirm access for service and pickup.


Never relocate units yourself without contacting us — especially on steep or unstable terrain.


📞 Call 828-616-9674 before moving any unit.

12. Rental Length, Cancellations & Extensions

  • Backyard events
  • Pop-up markets
