Rowhouse rehabs and campus-adjacent builds
Most Hartranft calls come off narrow rowhouse blocks near Temple, where a gut rehab or a stalled infill lot has crews on site and nowhere for them to go. A single Standard Porta Potty on the sidewalk keeps a small framing or roofing job legal without eating a parking space you cannot spare.
Bigger footprints, like a half-block townhouse run or a university-adjacent renovation, pair a couple of standards with a Handwashing Station so trades stay put through the day. When a general contractor wants finished-space cleanliness for a punch-list crew, the Deluxe Flushing Porta Potty is the usual step up.
Curbside placement with no driveway in sight
There are no driveways here, so units live at the curb, and where they sit matters. We set a potty on the sidewalk with the door swinging away from foot traffic, chock it level on the older pitched pavement, and keep it clear of the corner sightlines drivers need.
If a right-of-way or street-closure permit may apply for a longer curb placement, check with the city before the delivery date so the unit is not tagged. Tell the driver which side of the street stays open on trash and street-sweeping days and the swap runs without a hitch.
Block parties, moves, and campus move-in
The neighborhood calendar runs on Temple's rhythm, and August and January move-in weeks flood the blocks, so a rented restroom or two keeps a leasing turnover or a moving crew from knocking on doors. Summer brings permitted block parties along the side streets, and one clean unit covers a stoop-to-stoop afternoon.
Community cleanups around the rail corridor and lot-by-lot demolition days are the other regulars. Whatever the reason, tell us the dates and the nearest cross street, and the unit is staged before the crowd or the crew shows up.
