Who We Are
Frederick Porta Pros operates across Frederick and the surrounding region, including Braddock Heights 5.8 miles west and Ballenger Creek 6.2 miles south. Our dispatch team knows the local geography and traffic patterns, which means faster delivery and setup. We rent standard portable toilets for routine use, plus deluxe flushable models and ADA accessible units for sites that need them. A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and stands about 92 inches tall, sized to fit most job sites without taking over the lot.
Our crew also manages septic tank pumping for residential and commercial properties. A residential septic tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on tank size and household size. Beyond toilets, we stock roll-off dumpsters, storage containers, restroom trailers, temporary fencing and handwashing stations. Placement of a dumpster needs about 60 feet of straight clearance behind the truck, so we scout the site first and confirm access before arrival.
What We Do
Construction sites require specific sanitation ratios. OSHA 1926.51(c) mandates 1 toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers up to 200 employees. Frederick Porta Pros calculates your site's needs and delivers the right count. We also service every unit weekly, the standard baseline under industry guidelines, and handle emergency calls outside regular hours.
For events and festivals, we rent restroom trailers with multiple stalls, sinks and climate control. These trailers serve outdoor venues where standard portables fall short. We've handled weddings, marathons, county fairs and concerts across Frederick. If your site requires washing stations, we provide units with soap and hand-drying devices, meeting 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) for general industry workplaces.
Our grease trap pumping service handles commercial kitchens and food trucks. A grease interceptor is pumped when fats, oils, grease and solids reach 25 percent of the liquid depth, before backups occur. We also rent temporary fencing to control site traffic and protect the public, plus holding tanks for temporary water storage on construction sites where OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water.

What's the difference between a standard porta potty and a deluxe model?
Deluxe units have a foot-flush valve, sink, soap and hand sanitizer built in. Standard units use a lever pump. Deluxe costs more but cuts down on portable handwashing stations if you don't need a full trailer. Both hold 60 to 70 gallons.
Do you service on weekends?
Yes. We charge a weekend rate for delivery and pickup. Service calls on Saturdays and Sundays run higher than weekday rates. Call ahead to confirm availability and pricing.
Can I rent a porta potty for a residential renovation?
Absolutely. Home renovation projects use standard or deluxe units for 1 to 4 weeks. We deliver to your Frederick driveway, place it near the work zone and pump it out on schedule. No permit required for private property.
How do I know if my septic tank needs pumping?
Signs include slow drains, sewage smells near the tank, soggy yard over the drain field or visible backups. Call us for a pump-out and inspection. We'll tell you when the next service is due.
