Porta Potty Quote Checklist: 8 Lines Every Quote Should Show
An itemized porta potty quote should show eight lines: unit type, rental period, delivery and pickup, service visits, any same-day or distance fee, any add-ons, sales tax and the total. If a line isn't on the quote, ask before you pay, so the bill matches the number you agreed to.
What should an itemized quote include?
An itemized quote should include the unit type and count, the rental period and billing cycle, delivery and pickup, the service schedule, any same-day or distance fee, any add-ons like hand wash stations or locks, 6% Pennsylvania sales tax, and the final total. Ask for it in writing by text or email.

What questions should I ask before paying?
Before paying, ask: When does billing renew? Is pickup automatic or do I call? What is the cancellation deadline? Is there any fee not on this quote? Who do I call if the unit needs service? Clear answers to those five questions prevent most rental surprises.
