Planning tips
Getting restrooms & power right
- 1
Count units
About 1 restroom per 50 guests for 4 hours; add 20% if serving alcohol and an ADA unit.
- 2
Hand washing
Add a hand-wash station for every 2-3 restrooms if no sinks are nearby.
- 3
Power load
Add up the watts of lights, heaters, sound and catering; size the generator 20% above the total.
- 4
Placement
Restrooms need level ground and truck access; generators go downwind and away from guests.
Questions
Large Portable Generator rental FAQs
How much does it cost to rent a Large Portable Generator in Chicago?
$273.90 each for one event day. Delivery and pickup (usually $150-$400 per order), setup, a damage waiver (about 10%) and sales tax are added for your venue, so a delivered order typically costs 35-60% more than the rental rates alone. Multi-day rentals are quoted on request.
Can you deliver a Large Portable Generator to my venue?
Yes. We arrange delivery, setup and pickup anywhere in Chicago & suburbs, including Evanston, Oak Park, Oak Brook, Schaumburg, Naperville and nearby towns. Tell us about stairs, elevators or load-in windows and we include them in the quote.
How far ahead should I reserve?
For May to October weekends, reserve 2-4 months ahead; tents, specialty chairs and dance floors go first. For other dates, 2-4 weeks is usually enough. Your quote holds nothing until you approve it.
How many portable restrooms do I need for 100 guests?
Two standard units for a four-hour event, three if alcohol is served, plus a hand-wash station. A restroom trailer with 2-3 stalls covers about 100-150 guests.
What size generator do I need for a tent wedding?
Add up the watts of everything you will run (string lights, DJ, caterer's warmers, fans or heaters) and add 20%. Most 100-guest tents need about 7,000-10,000 watts; a vendor sizes it for you.
