Porta Potties for Game-Day Tailgates in Lubbock
Unit counts, timing and permission for private lots, businesses and organized tailgates on home-game weekends.
How many units does a tailgate lot need?
A tailgate lot needs about 1 standard unit per 50 tailgaters for 6 hours, plus about 15% more when drinks flow. That's 3 units for 100 people, 5 for 200 and 8 for 300 over 6 hours, before drinks. Make at least 5% accessible, and add a handwash station for every 10 units near the grills. For lots over 500 people, use the PSAI chart.
| Tailgaters | 6 hrs | 6 hrs + drinks | Accessible |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 | 3 | 4 | 1 |
| 200 | 5 | 6 | 1 |
| 300 | 8 | 10 | 1 |
When should I book for a home game?
Book by the Tuesday of game week, and 2–3 weeks ahead for big rivalry games and homecoming. Jones AT&T Stadium seats about 60,000, so units around town go fast. Units drop the day before and pick up the next business day.
Stadium capacity: source. Get written permission from the lot owner before we set units.

What do 20 or 30 units cost for a big event?

Do I need an ADA unit?
For public events, plan at least 5% of the units in each cluster as accessible, and never fewer than one. Private parties need one only if a guest uses a wheelchair or walker. If an inspector will check, rent the ADA-compliant model with paperwork.
Can I add a service visit?
Yes, from $80 a visit. Big jobsites, three-day events and tailgate lots often add one. For multi-day festivals, the most useful slot is overnight between day one and day two.
