Hidalgo porta potty questions
Can you deliver a porta potty to Hidalgo today?
Usually, yes — call before 11 AM. Same-day fee about $100–$200, quoted first. Drivers deliver 8 AM–5 PM and text 30 minutes ahead.
Which Hidalgo ZIP codes do you cover?
All of them: 78557. Use the ZIP checker on this page or call (956) 396-3589.
Do you stake units on open lots near the river?
Yes. Open lots along Military Highway catch wind, so we stake units at no charge on request — especially during hurricane season from June 1 to November 30.
Do you rent porta potties by the day?
No — event rentals are priced per event, not per day. Eric Rental Works drops the unit off Friday (or Thursday on busy weekends) and picks it up Monday for the same price as one day. A Saturday birthday or a Sunday carne asada costs the same whether the unit stays one day or four.
Are there extra fees like fuel or card charges?
No. Eric Rental Works quotes one all-in price: unit, delivery, pickup, stocking and tax. Many companies add a fuel surcharge (about $35 in calls we reviewed) and a 3% card fee after the quote. Ours does not. Only a same-day fee or an extra service visit can be added, and only if you ask for them.
