Yes, Medford Porta Pros rents portable sink stations with a fresh water tank and a wastewater tank built in, no plumbing hookup needed. Most units run 5 to 7 gallons of fresh water per fill, enough for a job site crew or a weekend event before you need a refill. They pair well with any portable toilet rental order.
A portable sink station is a standalone unit with a fresh water tank on top, a wastewater tank underneath, and a pump that pushes water through a faucet when someone steps on a foot pedal or pushes a lever. No hose, no outlet, nothing hardwired. Some models heat the water, which matters more than people expect once fall hits in Medford. You fill the fresh tank, use the sink, and the gray water collects below for us to dump on the next service run.
These are not the same as the little sink built into a deluxe flushable porta potty, which is a single combo unit. A standalone sink station is meant for handwashing at scale, or for anyone who needs a portable sink to wash hair, rinse produce, or clean tools between tasks. Campers ask about a camping portable sink a lot, since a self-contained tank means no spigot required at the site. For construction crews, OSHA 1926.51(a)(1) requires an adequate supply of potable water at the workplace, and a sink station with a sealed tank satisfies that without a permanent line. Pair one with a standard porta potty rental and you have covered both water and toilet needs on a single delivery.
Because handwashing after contact with certain materials is not optional under federal rule, and because clean hands cut down on illness across a crew working close together. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires washing facilities to be stocked with soap and towels or a hand drying device, not just sanitizer, which trips up a lot of first-time renters who assumed a sanitizer stand would cover it. If your crew is applying paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) is the specific rule that kicks in, and it is worth checking our handwashing station requirements page before your permit inspection.
A lot of Medford contractors run a hand sanitizer station alongside a sink for sites with high foot traffic, since it is a quick middle step between full washes. We deliver both together more often than not. If you are staging a bigger site with fencing and dumpsters, a construction site services package usually bundles the sink with a roll-off dumpster rental and a run of temporary fence rental panels, all on one drop.
Pricing depends on tank size, hot water, and how long you need it, and stacking it with other equipment usually knocks down the delivery fee per unit. Below is what similar equipment on our lineup runs, since sink stations get quoted case by case depending on hot water and tank capacity.
| unit | day | week | month |
|---|---|---|---|
| standard porta potty | 100-350 | 130-500 | 125-325 |
| ADA unit | 200-400 | 120-240 | n/a |
| handwashing add-on delivery | 100-500 | 50-150 | 120-420 |
Most weekend events add a sink station as an add-on to a standard toilet order rather than renting one alone, which is why weekend pricing runs separately from the day and week columns above. Check our porta potty rental cost page for the toilet side of that math, and monthly porta potty rental if you are staffing a job that runs past a few weeks. For a longer build, a mobile office setup from mobile office trailer rental sometimes comes with a built-in sink already, worth asking about before you double up.
Right next to the toilets, ideally within a short walk, and on level ground so the water tank does not tip. ADA Standards section 302.1 requires floor and ground surfaces to be stable and slip resistant for any accessible route, and that same logic applies to keeping a sink station from sinking into soft dirt after rain. If your event or job site includes an accessible restroom, ADA Standards section 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit in any cluster of single-user toilets, so plan your sink placement to sit within that same accessible path. Our ADA accessible porta potty page walks through the clearance specs in more detail.
For agricultural operations, OSHA 1928.110 sets a stricter bar: hand-labor employees need a wash station within a quarter mile walk, at a ratio of one facility per 20 workers. That is worth knowing if you are running a crew out on a farm site outside the city core; see our farm and agricultural restrooms page for how we handle that. Medford sites near Winchester, which sits about 3.7 miles northwest, or Woburn, 6.0 miles northwest, get the same delivery terms, so distance rarely changes turnaround. If you are not sure how many units your headcount needs, run the numbers on our how many porta potties do I need guide before you call.
Most portable sink stations carry 5 to 7 gallons of fresh water and a matching or larger wastewater tank underneath. That is enough for a moderate-traffic crew across a workday before a refill. Heavy-use events usually need a refill mid-day, which we can schedule as part of delivery.
Yes, some units include a small internal heater or an insulated hot water portable sink tank. These cost more than a cold-water-only unit but matter for anyone washing hands after paint, oils or chemical contact under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1). Ask when you request a quote which models we have available that week.
No. Most run on the tank's own pressure or a small battery-fed pump, so no outlet or generator is required. Some heated models use a battery pack instead of shore power. If your site already runs a temporary power pole, we can still connect one, but it is not required.
It depends on headcount and use, but a 5 to 7 gallon tank on a busy crew site often needs a refill once a day. Camping and small event setups can stretch two or three days. We can schedule refills alongside toilet servicing on the same visit.
In most cases, yes, as long as it is stocked with soap and a towel or drying device per 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2). Hand sanitizer alone does not meet that standard. Check our handwashing station rental page for unit options that meet the requirement outright.
