Delivery & collection cost scales with mileage. Local jobs are always cheaper.
Hire duration
Weekly rates drop substantially for long-term hires (4+ weeks). Short events have higher per-day rates.
Servicing frequency
Weekly servicing is included. Twice-weekly or daily service on high-use sites adds cost.
Access constraints
Difficult access (narrow lanes, soft ground, permit required) may add a handling fee.
Urgency
Same-week or next-day deliveries may carry a premium. Plan 2+ weeks ahead for best pricing.
Bundled hire
Multiple units on one site (e.g. toilets + welfare + showers) typically unlocks package pricing.
Most portable toilet hire companies refuse to publish prices because their model depends on quoting low, then adding extras. Servicing charged separately. Waste disposal as a surcharge. Call-out fees. Fuel surcharges. By the time you see the final bill, it has moved significantly from the initial quote. We do not work like that. The price we quote is the price you pay. Servicing is included. Waste disposal is included. There are no surprise line items. If the ranges above are higher than a competitor's headline rate, ask that competitor for their all-in, fully-serviced, fully-documented price — and then compare.
For a standard wedding of 80-150 guests over a weekend, budget £600-£1,200 for luxury toilet trailer hire. Add £180-£260 for a wheelchair accessible unit. Single standard portable toilets for less formal events start at £120 per unit for a weekend hire.
A single standard portable toilet on a construction site is typically £18-£28 per week with weekly servicing included. A small welfare unit (covering 3-5 operatives with toilet, hot water, drying room, canteen) is £140-£200 per week. Prices scale with unit size and site location.
Delivery is usually a separate one-off fee (typically £60-£180 depending on distance). Weekly servicing is included in the hire price as standard. We quote an all-in price up front with no hidden extras.
Standard deliveries are Monday-Friday 07:30-16:30. Weekend or evening deliveries are possible but typically carry a handling surcharge. It is always worth asking — we try to accommodate reasonable requests.
A single standard portable toilet for a short construction hire is typically the cheapest at £18-£28 per week. For events, a single standard unit from £120 for a weekend. We do not quote below genuine cost — a suspiciously cheap quote usually means corners being cut on servicing.
The biggest difference is whether servicing is included and documented. We own our fleet and service directly, so the price we quote is the price you pay. Many brokers or agency suppliers charge a low headline rate and add servicing, waste removal, or call-out fees later. Always ask for an all-in quote.
For standard hires we do not require deposits. For large events or luxury trailer bookings a deposit (typically 25%) may be required to secure the date.
