How far is delivery to Hobart?
Hobart sits 8.5 miles southeast of Gary. Delivery takes roughly 21 minutes from our base. The trip adds cost. A delivery fee typically runs $50 to $150 for a week-long rental, or $100 to $500 for daily rates, according to our pricing data across 799 comparable jobs. For monthly rentals the fee lands between $120 and $420. Weekend deliveries cost more: expect $125 to $540. Call us with your dates and location. We'll quote the exact charge for your address.
Check our service areas page to confirm we reach your street. Hobart's layout affects placement options. Some sites need extra positioning time, which can shift fees slightly. Gary Porta Pros handles that conversation upfront so you're not surprised.
What permits does Hobart require?
Placement in Hobart's public right of way needs confirming with the city. We recommend calling the Hobart permitting office before you order. They'll tell you whether your location needs a license and what the timeline is. Most residential and private commercial sites don't need permits. Construction zones, street parking and municipal work usually do.
Gary Porta Pros works with hundreds of Hobart projects yearly. We know the common spots and the common headaches. You focus on your job. Let us handle the logistics and the permit questions with the city. If you're unsure, we can walk you through the process during the estimate call.
Do you service Hobart events and construction?
Yes. We rent to festivals, marathons, weddings and job sites all through this area. Gary Porta Pros stocks standard portable toilets starting around $130 to $500 per week, ADA accessible units from $120 to $240 weekly, and deluxe flushable models from $150 to $290 weekly. For large events, a restroom trailer runs $150 to $1,650 per week and gives you a step up from portable units.
A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and measures about 44 by 48 inches on the ground. That footprint fits most sites. Construction crews in Gary and Hobart follow OSHA 1926.51(c)(1): one toilet facility for 20 workers or fewer, one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers from 20 up, and one toilet seat and one urinal per 50 workers at 200 or more. We'll count your crew and recommend the right number of units.
Regular service keeps units clean. We visit weekly as standard under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3, the industry sanitation baseline. More frequent service is available. Roll-off dumpsters and temporary fencing are also in stock if your Hobart project needs them.

How often do you service portable toilets?
Weekly service is standard under ANSI/PSAI Z4.3. One service visit per week covers most 40-hour work weeks and events. Higher-traffic sites need twice weekly or daily service. We adjust the schedule to your needs. More frequent visits cost more per week.
Do portable toilets smell?
New units and regular service keep odor low. We pump tanks before they fill. The holding tank on a standard unit is 60 to 70 gallons. Ventilation helps too. Portable toilets aren't odor-free, but a well-maintained unit is far better than an unmaintained one.
Can I rent a portable toilet for a weekend?
Yes. Weekend rates differ from weekly. A standard unit runs $125 to $400 for a weekend. We deliver Friday and pick up Monday. If you need it longer, a week rental ($130 to $500) often costs less per day. Check both options when you call.
What if my Hobart site needs handwashing?
Handwashing stations are available. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires washing facilities with soap and with towels or a hand drying device at general industry sites. Gary Porta Pros rents portable sinks that meet this standard. If you're applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities on-site. We install them.
Do you rent septic pumping service?
Yes. Septic pumping keeps residential tanks healthy. A residential tank is typically pumped every 3 to 5 years, driven by tank size and household size. If you're seeing slow drains or wet spots in the yard, pumping may be overdue. Hobart homeowners call us for emergency service. Same-day availability depends on our schedule that day.
