Game days, Art Fair and private events in Ann Arbor

Fall Saturdays bring large crowds to Michigan Stadium, and private tailgates and house gatherings on properties near campus often need portable restrooms. The Ann Arbor Art Fair each July fills downtown streets, and vendors, nearby businesses and residents hosting guests sometimes add units. Summer also brings graduation parties, reunions and weddings at venues around Washtenaw County.

Book early for these dates, since demand overlaps. Place units on private property you control, add handwashing stations near food and plan for evening lighting. Our event sanitation checklist covers the details.

Construction and renovation sites in Ann Arbor

Ann Arbor's construction mix includes university and hospital projects, apartment and mixed-use buildings downtown, and subdivisions in the surrounding townships. Rental-house renovations between tenants are common too, and crews often need a unit when the house's plumbing is out of service.

On tight downtown sites, providers may place units in a small staging area or a reserved parking space with approval. On subdivisions, a firm pad near the road keeps service on schedule. OSHA requires toilet facilities for construction workers.

Service schedules and winter weather in Ann Arbor

Construction units are usually serviced weekly. Events with heavy use, such as all-day tailgates, may need more capacity or a mid-event visit. In winter, providers typically add antifreeze to holding tanks and may adjust service in very cold weather. Keep the path and service route clear of snow and ice. See our winter portable toilet guide.

Placement and accessibility in Ann Arbor

Set units on firm, level ground with a clear route for the service truck. Keep them off sidewalks and streets unless the city has approved the placement, which matters during busy campus events. Public events should include ADA units on an accessible route. Under heavy tree canopy, check for low branches that could block delivery or service. On lawns, avoid soft spots after rain.

For backyard parties near campus, a driveway edge or side yard usually works. Tell your provider about fences, gates and slopes when you call.

Planning the right quantity

OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 requires at least one toilet for up to 20 construction workers, with more as the crew grows. For events, consider attendance, length and whether alcohol is served. Tailgates and long receptions with a bar usually need more capacity than a short afternoon party. Our quantity guide walks through the planning.

Pricing factors in Ann Arbor

Cost depends on unit type, number of units, rental length and service frequency. Restroom trailers, ADA units, winter service and delivery on peak weekends can increase the total, and short-notice orders on game weekends may have limited options. Long-term jobsite rentals are usually billed on a recurring cycle. Ask for a written quote covering delivery, service and pickup. Read our pricing guide.
