City event rule
How many porta potties does a Morgan Hill special event permit require?
A Morgan Hill special event permit requires at least 4 portable toilets — 2 unisex and 2 accessible — and 10% of all toilets must be accessible. Each toilet must sit on a level site (2% slope or less) with a 48-inch clear path. The rule applies to events that need a city permit, such as events over 50 people.
| Expected guests (4-hour event) | City minimum | Our dispatch guideline (1 per 50) | What we would quote |
|---|---|---|---|
| 60 | 4 (2 accessible) | 2 | 4 units: 2 standard + 2 wheelchair-accessible |
| 300 | 4 (2 accessible) | 6 | 6 units: 4 standard + 2 wheelchair-accessible |
| 600, alcohol served | 4 (2 accessible) | 12, plus 3 for alcohol = 15 | 15 units: 13 standard + 2 wheelchair-accessible |
Worked example: 600 guests ÷ 50 = 12 units. Alcohol adds 20%, which is 2.4, rounded up to 3. That makes 15 units. Ten percent of 15 is 1.5, so the city’s 2-accessible minimum still covers it. The city rule is the legal floor; the 1-per-50 count is our dispatch guideline. Confirm your final count with Morgan Hill special event permits.
Permit triggers: Morgan Hill also triggers a permit for alcohol, amplified music or a jump house, even under 50 people. Apply at least 4 months ahead (6 months for 2,500+ guests); applications inside 30 days carry a late fee.
Permits
Do you need a Morgan Hill encroachment permit for a porta potty?
A porta potty placed in Morgan Hill’s right-of-way needs an encroachment permit from the Engineering Division at 17575 Peak Avenue, (408) 778-6480. Morgan Hill allows up to 10 business days to review and issue the permit, and all fees are paid before issue. A driveway or private lot needs no permit.
- Driveways, yards and private lots: no permit
- Street, sidewalk or parking lane: encroachment permit first
- Event in a park or on a street: special event permit, with toilet locations on the site diagram
- Mark each toilet spot on level ground with a 48-inch clear path
Local calendar
Which Morgan Hill events and weather fill the calendar?
Morgan Hill fills the calendar twice each summer: Mushroom Mardi Gras downtown in late May, and Freedom Fest on July 4, with a parade on Monterey Road and fireworks at the Outdoor Sports Center on Condit Road. August averages 85°F highs, the warmest month, so units go in shade.
| When | What | Effect on your rental |
|---|---|---|
| Late May | Mushroom Mardi Gras, downtown Morgan Hill; Memorial Day weekend | Book 2 weeks ahead; pickup moves to Tuesday |
| July 4 | Freedom Fest parade (Monterey Rd., Dunne, Main, Peak) and fireworks | Downtown streets close; drop the unit before the holiday |
| June 10 – October 9 | Warm season; July 84°F, August 85°F average highs | Shade, handwash stations, mid-event service |

Check delivery for your Morgan Hill address
Bring your guest count. We size the order to the city’s event rule on the call.
Mon–Sat, 7 a.m.–7 p.m. · Most callers get an itemized quote in under 10 minutes.
What is the smallest order that meets Morgan Hill’s event rule?
Four portable toilets: 2 standard (unisex) and 2 accessible, each on level ground with a 48-inch clear path. That applies to events that need a city special event permit. Ask the city whether your private party needs one.
How much do 2 standard and 2 accessible units cost?
On recent quotes, a standard event unit ran about $199–$299 before tax, and a wheelchair-accessible unit about $204–$420. Morgan Hill may add a longer-distance line. Your itemized quote lists every unit and line.
How much is the Morgan Hill encroachment permit?
The city lists the encroachment permit fee at $810.60, plus a card service charge, paid to the city before issue. That fee is not on our quote. Most renters skip it by using a driveway or private lot.
Does your wheelchair-accessible unit meet ADA rules?
Our wheelchair-accessible unit has ground-level entry, a door about 36 inches wide and about 60 inches of turning space inside. Whether a setup is compliant depends on the site and the permit office, so confirm with Morgan Hill’s event staff.
Can you deliver to Holiday Lake Estates or Jackson Oaks?
Yes. East-hills drives can be steep, so choose a flat spot within about 15 feet of where the truck can park. A mild slope is fine. Mark the spot with a cone or chalk.
Will a Morgan Hill delivery cost more than Gilroy?
It can. Morgan Hill is about 12 miles farther from our Salinas yard than Gilroy and is the northern edge of our route. Any longer-distance line appears on the quote before you pay.
