When do you need an ADA wheelchair-accessible porta potty?
You need an accessible porta potty at any event open to the public. The 2010 ADA Standards, section 213.2, require at least 5 percent of portable toilets in each cluster to be accessible, and never fewer than one. Private family parties are not covered, but one accessible unit helps any guest with a cane, walker or stroller.
Example: 12 portable toilets in one cluster × 5% = 0.6, which rounds up to 1 accessible unit. Two separate clusters of 6 units each need 1 accessible unit each, so 2 total. Source: U.S. Access Board, 2010 ADA Standards §213.2. Confirm event rules with your venue or permit office.
What makes this porta potty wheelchair accessible?
This porta potty sits at ground level with no step, has a 32-inch-wide door, grab bars set 33 inches off the floor and more than 16 square feet of floor. Under the ADA standards a wheelchair needs a 60-inch-diameter turning circle, and this 62-inch-square cabin is built around that space.

Specs from the manufacturer listing for the named model: PolyJohn Comfort XL listing. Your unit may be an equivalent model; ask for its sheet with your quote.
The manufacturer describes this model as wheelchair accessible. We call it an ADA wheelchair-accessible unit; whether a whole site meets the ADA also depends on the route to it, which is your venue's call.
Where should an accessible unit be placed?
Place an accessible porta potty on firm, level ground such as pavement, packed gravel or plywood over lawn, with a smooth route from parking and seating. A wheelchair cannot cross wet Bellingham grass, curbs or bark mulch, so the route matters as much as the unit.
- Keep a 5-foot-wide clear space in front of the door.
- Put the unit at the end of a row so the door is not boxed in.
- The cabin is 62 inches wide, so it rarely fits through a residential side gate.

Questions about the ada wheelchair-accessible porta potty
Is there a difference between a handicap porta potty and an ADA porta potty?
Renters use both names for the same ground-level unit with grab bars. What matters is the floor space, the door width and a level route to it.
Can an accessible unit be the only unit at a small event?
One accessible unit can serve as the only toilet at a small event. Everyone can use it, and it has more room for parents with small children.
Does the accessible unit have a sink?
The accessible unit has a hand sanitizer dispenser. Add a hand washing station nearby for soap and water.
Do job sites need an accessible unit?
Washington's construction sanitation rule sets toilet counts by crew size and does not require an accessible unit. Add one if a worker needs it.
How much space does the truck need to set it down?
The accessible unit is wider and heavier than a standard unit, so the truck needs a firm approach within a few feet of the final spot.
