A stand-alone sanitizer station holds several gallons of gel or foam and needs a refill every few days on a busy job site. Durham Porta Pros pairs these with porta potty rentals or runs them solo for events, and a delivery fee for the same truck run typically lands between $100 and $150 for a single day in Durham.
Each unit is a freestanding dispenser stand, foam or gel, refilled on the same schedule as your portable restroom rental service. Hand sanitizer stations are not a substitute for real handwashing when the job involves paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides. OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities specifically for those contaminant contexts, and gel alone does not meet that. For general job site sanitation and toilet counts, OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the ratio: one toilet for 20 workers or fewer on a Durham crew, scaling up from there. That is also why most contractors add a handwashing station rental or portable sink rental alongside sanitizer stands rather than relying on one or the other. 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) is the general industry rule, and it specifically calls for soap and towels or a hand-drying device, noting that sanitizer does not satisfy it either. Check our handwashing requirements page for the fuller breakdown by job type.
Refills happen on your normal service run, matched to the same visit schedule as your toilets. ANSI/PSAI Z4.3 sets a one-visit-per-week baseline for up to 10 users over a 40-hour week, and that same truck tops off the porta potty hand sanitizer dispenser mounted near the unit doors. High-traffic events in Durham, like a weekend festival or a race route, often need a second mid-week stop. We build that into scheduling for festival restroom rental and marathon and race restrooms jobs so the dispenser is never running dry on the busiest day. For a construction site running one shift, weekly service usually holds. For a Durham venue running back-to-back weekend events, ask about doubling up.
Pairing works better on active sites. A crew moving between a dumpster staging area, a construction dumpster rental zone, and the restroom bank covers more ground than event foot traffic, so a dispenser mounted right at the toilet bank keeps hand contact points close together. Stand-alone stations make sense for entry points, food service lines, or anywhere people pass through without needing a restroom, like a farmers market gate or a wedding restroom rental cocktail area. If you are budgeting for a full setup, our porta potty rental cost and porta potty rental per day pages break down what daily, weekly and monthly service actually runs across Durham, Gorman, and Chapel Hill.
| service | duration | typical price |
|---|---|---|
| standard unit | day | $150 |
| standard unit | week | $200 |
| standard unit | month | $200 |
| delivery fee | day | $150 |
Prices above reflect standard porta potty service bands; sanitizer stand add-ons run within the same delivery visit, not as a separate truck roll.
No. Gel or foam sanitizer does not meet 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2), which calls for soap and running water or a hand-drying device. For paint, coating, herbicide or insecticide work, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires actual washing facilities, not sanitizer alone. Pair a sanitizer stand with a portable sink rental for full compliance.
It depends on layout more than headcount. A single stand near each restroom cluster and one at any food or entry point usually covers a mid-size event. Larger festivals in Durham often run three or four stations plus the restroom bank; see our how many porta potties do I need guide for sizing logic that applies the same way here.
Yes, and it should sit within reach without blocking the clear route. ADA Standards 403.5.1 calls for a 36 inch clear path, so the stand needs to sit off to the side, not in front of the door. See ADA accessible porta potty for full clearance specs.
Usually not, if they ride with a restroom order on the same truck. Delivery fee bands run from about $100 to $150 for a single day trip in Durham, and adding a sanitizer stand rarely changes that. Ask when you request a quote.
