Rental Fees for Mobile Toilets

Admin September 21, 2026

The rental fees for mobile toilets are determined by a combination of factors, including type, rental duration, service content, and regional differences. Details are as follows:

1. Basic Rental Fees

The type of mobile toilet directly affects the price:

  • Simple Single-Stall Toilet: 50-100 yuan/day, suitable for short-term, low-frequency use scenarios.
  • Single-Stall Toilet with Flushing System: 150-300 yuan/day, with more complete functions, suitable for medium-sized events.
  • Double-Stall or Partitioned Toilet: 300-500 yuan/day, meeting the needs of multiple people using simultaneously.
  • Connected Toilets (e.g., for weddings): 150-250 yuan/day for three stalls, with discounts available for bulk rentals.
    Long-term rentals are more cost-effective: Monthly rentals are 30%-50% cheaper than daily rentals. For example, a standard model costs 1500-3000 yuan/month (50-100 yuan/day on average), and renting multiple units can receive an additional 8-9% discount; bulk rentals (e.g., 10 connected toilets) can directly save 20% on fees.

2. Deposits and Additional Terms

  • Deposit: Typically 1-2 times the rental fee, or calculated based on the rental cost (e.g., for a toilet rented at 200 yuan/day for 3 days, the deposit is 300-600 yuan). Be aware of hidden charges such as 'cleaning fees' or 'damage fees' in the contract, and clarify the deposit refund conditions before signing.
  • Hidden Term Risks: Some merchants may charge 'equipment maintenance fees' or 'insurance fees'. The responsibility for minor scratches on equipment upon return and damage caused by force majeure (e.g., heavy rain) should be agreed upon in advance.

3. Transportation and Installation Fees

  • Within Urban Areas: Transportation and installation are usually included in the rental fee.
  • Remote Areas: Additional transportation fees are required, generally 50-100 yuan per kilometer; installation takes 1-2 hours, and large events require advance booking.

4. Additional Service Fees

  • Basic Services: Clarify whether delivery, installation, daily cleaning, and water replacement are included, as some merchants may charge extra later. For example, cleaning fees are charged per session (10-20 yuan/day), and consumables (toilet paper, hand soap, air fresheners) need to be purchased separately (about 20-50 yuan/day).
  • Professional Cleaning Services: Approximately 50-100 yuan per session, suitable for long-term or high-frequency use scenarios.

5. Premiums for Special Needs

  • High-End Models: Accessible mobile toilets and toilets with air conditioning are 50%-100% more expensive than basic models.
  • Additional Facilities: Night lighting, rain shelters, etc., require additional fees, with specific prices negotiated based on merchant quotes.

6. Regional Differences

The price of basic models in first-tier cities like Beijing and Shanghai is 10%-20% higher than in second- and third-tier cities, so adjust the budget according to the actual location of use.

Recommendation: Before renting, clarify your needs (e.g., number of people, duration, functions), compare quotes from multiple merchants, carefully review contract terms, and keep pickup and return receipts to avoid disputes.
