A golf tournament in Lake Charles needs one standard unit per 40 to 50 golfers on the course, plus at least one ADA unit near the clubhouse under ADA Standards 213.2. A charity scramble of 100 players usually runs 2 to 3 standard units and 1 accessible unit for the day.
Start with your field size and stretch the course into zones. A 4-hole turn works well for placement: units near the 4th, 9th, 13th and 18th tees keep golfers from walking far, and carts can reach every spot without leaving the cart path. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets construction ratios at one toilet for every 20 workers, and tournament organizers use a looser version of that same math, since golfers move in waves rather than staying put for eight hours. For a 72-golfer shotgun start, two standard units spread across the front and back nine usually covers it, and you can check exact counts against our how many porta potties do I need guide before you commit to a number. Add a deluxe flushable unit near the clubhouse or 19th hole if your tournament includes a dinner or awards ceremony afterward. A standard unit holds 60 to 70 gallons and stands about 92 inches tall, which matters if you are tucking one behind a cart barn or under low tree cover. For tournaments expecting sponsors or VIP guests, a deluxe flushable porta potty or a small restroom trailer reads a lot better next to the clubhouse patio than a straight bank of standard units. Lake Charles courses vary in layout, so walk the property first and mark your turns before you call in an order.
Pricing depends on unit type, how many days you need them, and whether you want an attendant on site during play. Most one-day tournaments fall into the standard unit day rate or the event rate if setup happens the evening before.
| Unit | Day | Weekend | Event |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $100-$350 | $125-$400 | $200-$800 |
| ADA | $200-$400 | $199-$300 | -- |
| Deluxe flushable | $85-$1,200 | -- | -- |
| Restroom trailer | $175-$2,500 | $900-$3,000 | $2,499-$3,899 |
A delivery fee separate from the unit rate typically runs $100 to $500 for a single day, and most golf courses in Lake Charles need clear cart-path access for the truck, since a full-size delivery vehicle cannot cross fairways or greens. Check the full breakdown on our porta potty rental cost page, or compare day rates directly on porta potty rental per day if your tournament runs a single Saturday. Multi-day member-guest events sometimes work out cheaper on a weekly rate than booking two separate weekend deliveries, so ask about that option when you request a quote.
Placement matters more on a golf course than almost anywhere else Lake Charles Porta Pros delivers to. Units need to sit off the cart path but close enough that golfers do not lose five minutes walking to one, and they cannot block a sprinkler head, drainage swale or maintenance access gate. Our porta potty placement guide covers ground stability and clearance in detail, but golf adds its own wrinkle: greens crews mow at odd hours, so units near a green need to sit far enough back that a triplex mower can pass. ADA Standards 403.5.1 calls for a 36 inch clear route to any accessible unit, which usually means placing it at a cart staging area rather than out on the turn. A 60 inch turning circle under ADA Standards 304.3.1 also needs flat, stable ground, so avoid rough or sloped rough edges for that unit. If your tournament also includes a hospitality tent or a beverage cart station, group a handwashing station nearby; 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at any washing setup, not sanitizer alone. Courses in Prien, 7.3 miles southwest of Lake Charles, and Moss Bluff, 10.7 miles north, both fall inside our standard delivery radius, so tournament organizers in either town can expect the same lead times as courses inside the city.
Two to three weeks ahead is safe for most Lake Charles tournaments, longer during spring and fall when courses book back-to-back weekend events. Fewer units and shorter drives, like the 11.4 miles to Westlake, tend to have more flexibility on short notice. For same-week needs, see emergency porta potty rental.
Yes, if you are clustering units at a staging area or clubhouse. ADA Standards 213.2 requires at least one accessible unit, even when your field has no known accessibility needs, since spectators and staff use the same cluster.
Yes. A luxury restroom trailer or a single deluxe flushable porta potty works well near seating, catering or a bar setup. Many tournaments pair standard units on the course with one nicer unit at the finish.
Weekly rates often beat booking two separate weekend deliveries. Ask about the difference between monthly porta potty rental pricing and standard weekend rates, since a two-day member-guest sometimes lands closer to a week rate.
Yes, always walk placement with the course superintendent first. Cart paths, irrigation heads and mower access all affect where a unit can safely sit, and our porta potty placement guide covers the ground conditions to check.
