FAQs About Holding Tank Systems
United Rentals’ holding tank systems for rent support the operation of portable restrooms and sanitation equipment at outdoor jobsites or events. Our inventory of holding tank rentals includes portable fresh water holding tanks, waste holding tanks and porta potty containment trays that collect wastewater from portable restrooms and shower trailers and provide fresh water to sinks, toilets and showers. Both our fresh and wastewater holding tanks hold up to 300 gallons of water to allow your guests and crews to efficiently use the restroom throughout the day without the interruption of frequent service. Our water holding tanks for rent can be rented daily, weekly or monthly for any outdoor location with portable restrooms, such as construction sites, festivals, sporting events, weddings, disaster relief efforts, film and television productions, campgrounds or farms. We also provide installation and servicing options for your event or jobsite to ensure all your fresh and wastewater needs are met.

Holding tanks are hooked up to portable restrooms to provide fresh water and contain wastewater. Fresh water holding tanks provide fresh water for the sinks, toilets and showers in porta potties, restroom trailers and shower trailers. Waste holding tanks contain the wastewater that comes from porta potties, restroom trailers and shower trailers.
A general rule of thumb is to have one waste holding tank for every 5-10 porta potties to allow guests to efficiently use the restroom throughout the day without the interruption of frequent service to the tanks.
Both fresh water and waste holding tanks are compatible with porta potties, restroom trailers and shower trailers to contain wastewater and provide fresh water for sinks, toilets and showers. Porta potty containment trays are specifically designed for use with one-station porta potties.
