Quotation for Portable Toilets in Shanghai Communities

Admin October 02, 2026

The quotations for portable toilets in Shanghai communities vary depending on the type, rental period, and service content, as detailed below:

I. Daily Rental Ranges by Type

  1. Standard Single-Person Portable Toilets: Short-term daily rental ranges from approximately 200 to 350 yuan per day per unit. Long-term leases (e.g., monthly rentals) offer more favorable unit prices, with monthly rentals ranging from about 3,000 to 6,000 yuan per unit.
  2. Eco-Friendly/Water-Saving Toilets: Daily rental ranges from about 300 to 500 yuan per day per unit. Due to the use of water-saving technology or eco-friendly materials, costs are slightly higher than standard models.
  3. Trailer-Mounted/Barrier-Free (Disabled) Toilets: Daily rental ranges from about 400 to 800 yuan per day per unit. These require barrier-free facilities or trailer structures, making them suitable for more specialized scenarios.
  4. Luxury Toilets: Daily rental can reach 1,000 to 2,000 yuan per day per unit or even higher, typically equipped with high-end features such as air conditioning and smart devices.

II. Quotations for Special Scenarios
The portable toilet rental project at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) provides another pricing reference:

  • 7-Stall Portable Toilets: 868 yuan per set per day (priced per set, suitable for high-traffic scenarios);
  • Single-Unit Portable Toilets: 130 yuan per set per day (basic configuration, lower cost);
  • Upgraded Single-Unit Portable Toilets: 680 yuan per set per day (upgraded configuration, such as additional sinks or ventilation systems).

III. Additional Fee Explanations
The above quotations typically do not include transportation fees, installation fees, cleaning service fees, or fecal extraction and disposal fees. For example, transportation fees are calculated based on distance and vehicle type, cleaning services may be charged per visit or per cycle, and fecal extraction and disposal fees are negotiated based on usage frequency and septic tank capacity. The final all-inclusive price (lump sum) requires a detailed proposal from the supplier based on specific needs (e.g., rental duration, number of toilets, service frequency).

IV. Selection Recommendations

  1. Short-Term Events: Prioritize standard or eco-friendly models with lower daily rentals to control costs;
  2. Long-Term Use: Long-term leases offer more favorable unit prices, but confirm contract terms (e.g., maintenance responsibilities);
  3. Special Needs: Reserve barrier-free or luxury toilets in advance and clarify additional service content;
  4. Budget Control: Request an all-inclusive price proposal from suppliers to avoid hidden fees.

It is recommended to contact at least three suppliers to compare quotations and clarify service details (e.g., cleaning frequency, fault response time) to ensure the best cost-effectiveness.
