Warehouse and Industrial Site Restrooms: what it covers
Quick answer
Warehouse and industrial site restrooms in Memphis are portable units placed to the truck flow and the crew count. Logistics building runs around Memphis International Airport, which is also a major overnight air-freight hub, and south into DeSoto County. The units are set off the truck lanes and serviced on a schedule the crew can plan around.
Warehouse builds are big, flat and busy with trucks. The restroom goes where the crew can reach it without crossing a loading lane, and the truck flow decides the spot more than the building plan does.
The land around the airport is industrial and logistics ground, and it is one of the places the city sees steady building. The sources behind this site describe that as a general pattern, so no single project is named or given a figure here.
South of the city into DeSoto County the pattern continues on larger lots. The Mississippi rules apply to those sites, so the units and the pumping are planned to that state. Call (888) 351-0294 to plan a warehouse site.

Warning signs
Signs you need warehouse and industrial site restrooms
Keep units clear of the truck lanes, the dock doors and the trailer parking, and mark the unit with a bollard or a cone where a vehicle could strike it. Report a unit that tips, leaks or is blocked to the general contractor and the provider at once.
- A warehouse build with trucks moving across the site all day
- A logistics site with several crews on different shifts
- A large flat lot with no building toilets nearby for the crew
- A loading yard where units would block the dock doors
- A build near the airport with a long construction window
- A site south of the city where the crew travels across the county line each morning

Tell us what's happening and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a quick fix, and what warehouse and industrial site restrooms should cost.
How many portable toilets does a warehouse build need?
The count is set from the crew size on the peak shift, under the construction sanitation rule the job falls under. The sources for this site give no warehouse ratio, so the general contractor and the technician confirm the number before the units are set.
A warehouse build with three crews on three shifts needs a count set for the largest shift, not for the daily average.
Ask the general contractor for the shift pattern in writing, since a change to the pattern changes the count.
Where do warehouse units go near the airport?
On level ground beside the crew route, off the truck lanes and the dock doors. The land around the airport is busy with freight, so the placement is planned against the trucks before the units are set.
Memphis International Airport is an overnight air-freight hub, and the trucks around it run through the night. Place the units to suit the night shift as well as the day.
Keep the units clear of the trailer parking, where a vehicle could strike them.
Do DeSoto County warehouse sites follow Mississippi rules?
Yes. A warehouse site south into DeSoto County is in Mississippi, so the Mississippi state rules apply to the units and the pumping. The state health department certifies septage pumpers, and the operator credential is checked for the job.
The Tennessee rules that cover Shelby County do not apply to a unit set in Mississippi. Plan the paperwork for the state where the unit sits.
Ask the county health department about any temporary sanitation requirement, since the sources for this site do not confirm the current county rule.
Do warehouse crews need accessible units?
Where visitors, inspectors or public traffic walk the site, an accessible unit is placed on their route. Crew-only units are generally treated differently, and the general contractor decides who counts as a visitor.
The accessible unit sits on the office route, not behind the dock, so a visitor reaches it without crossing the truck lanes.
Keep the route level and lit, and keep the unit clear of the material yard.
How is service timed around the shifts?
Service visits are timed to the shift change, so a unit is not emptied while a crew is queuing for it. The schedule is agreed with the general contractor and written down.
A unit serviced at the shift change is clean for the first crew and ready for the second. Ask the provider to confirm the time window in writing.
Summer work on a large flat lot is hot, so the schedule is tighter from June to September.
Our process
How our warehouse and industrial site restrooms visit works
Map the truck flow
The technician walks the site with the general contractor and marks the truck lanes, the loading docks and the crew entrance. The units go where no truck turns.
Count the crew by shift
The crew count is set for each shift, since a warehouse build often runs two or three crews through a day. The count is set against the peak shift, not the average.
Place the units off the lanes
Units are placed on level ground beside the crew route, clear of the lanes, the dock doors and the material yard. Each one is checked on a plain pad.
Plan the service around the shifts
Service visits are timed to the shift change, so a unit is not emptied while a crew is queuing for it. The schedule is agreed with the general contractor.
Remove the units at handover
At handover the units are pumped and removed under the state rules that apply to the site. The yard is left clear for the building to open.
Shelby County
Why warehouse and industrial site restrooms is different in Shelby County and the Memphis tri-state area
Logistics builds around the airport run through the night, and the truck traffic is heavy from the early hours.
Warehouse sites south of the city are in DeSoto County, which is Mississippi, so the state rules and the pumping plan differ from the Memphis lots.
Large flat lots take a lot of sun, so units are placed where the afternoon shade falls on the unit for part of the day.
