A portable sink rental runs $100 to $350 a day in Nashville, and gives your crew or event running water without hooking into a building. Nashville Porta Pros builds each unit around a self-contained water tank, so you get soap, water and a drain in one station wherever the job sits. Most renters pair it with standard porta potty rental for full coverage.
Every unit is a self-contained station: fresh water tank, foot pump or hand pump, soap dispenser, paper towel holder and a gray water tank to catch what drains out. Some models heat water, which matters if your crew needs hot water portable sink service for washing up after handling food or materials. Nashville Porta Pros stocks both cold-only and heated units, and 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at washing facilities, not sanitizer alone. That rule is written for general industry, but it is a good baseline for any jobsite or event in Nashville. If you are also renting toilets, look at portable toilet rental or the portable restroom rental page to size out the full package. For sites doing paint, coatings, herbicide or insecticide work, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) requires washing facilities for that exposure specifically, and a portable sink station satisfies it.
Yes. A portable sink to wash hair works fine for camping, film sets or events, as long as the basin is deep enough and the water tank holds enough volume for repeat use. Renters ask about a portable sink for hair washing most often around weddings and film shoots, where hair and makeup need running water on location. Check the wedding restroom rental or film set restroom rental pages if that is the use case. A camping portable sink setup at a farm event or outdoor gathering handles the same job at a smaller scale. Basin depth and tank size vary by model, so tell Nashville Porta Pros how many people need access and how often, and they will size the water tank so nobody is waiting on a refill mid-event.
Portable sink stations price close to standard handwashing units, and a delivery fee applies to get the tank filled and set on site. Pricing depends on how long you need the unit and whether you want a single station or several.
| duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|
| day | $100 | $150 | $350 |
| week | $130 | $200 | $500 |
| month | $125 | $200 | $325 |
Delivery runs separately, and a same-day or short delivery fee typically lands between $100 and $150. If you are comparing this against a full sink and toilet package, the porta potty rental cost and porta potty rental per day pages break down toilet-only pricing, and monthly porta potty rental covers longer jobs. For straight handwashing units without the sink features, compare against handwashing station rental and hand sanitizer station rental, since sanitizer stations alone will not meet 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) on a jobsite.
Put it next to the portable toilets, not across the lot. ADA Standards section 403.5.1 calls for a 36 inch clear route to any accessible unit, and if your event needs an ADA-compliant sink or toilet nearby, that clearance has to stay open the whole time. Nashville Porta Pros services jobs across Nashville proper and into Berry Hill, 4.4 miles south, and Oak Hill, 9.3 miles south, plus farther towns like Brentwood, 15.3 miles south, and Hendersonville, 18.4 miles northeast. Placement close to a level, stable surface matters too. ADA Standards section 302.1 requires stable, firm, slip-resistant ground for the route leading up to any accessible fixture, so gravel or soft turf near the sink can be a problem. For general placement guidance beyond sinks, the porta potty placement guide walks through surface and clearance basics, and ADA restroom requirements covers the accessible unit rules in more depth. If your event or jobsite sits in the public right of way, confirm placement with the city before delivery, since that is not something to guess at.
Toilets alone do not meet handwashing rules on a jobsite. OSHA 1926.51(c) sets the toilet ratio for construction crews, starting at one facility for 20 workers or fewer, but that standard covers toilets, not handwashing. A separate portable sink and water tank setup closes that gap. If your project is agricultural, OSHA 1928.110 sets its own combined standard: one facility per 20 hand-labor employees, water and handwashing included, all within a quarter mile walk, which matters for anyone running farm and agricultural restrooms work outside Nashville in Smyrna or Mount Juliet. For crews needing full facility counts, how many porta potties do I need and OSHA portable toilet requirements go through the ratios in detail. Event organizers should check event restroom rental for combined toilet and sink packages sized to guest counts.
Tank life depends on use, but frequent handwashing at a busy job or event site can drain a standard tank in a single day. Nashville Porta Pros checks usage rates during setup and can schedule a refill or swap so the station never runs dry mid-shift.
Yes, weekend rentals are common for weddings, festivals and family events. Pricing sits between the day and week rates, and Nashville Porta Pros delivers and picks up around your event schedule so the unit is there exactly when guests arrive.
Yes, delivery is billed separately from the unit rental itself. The fee covers hauling the sink, filling the water tank on site and positioning it near your restrooms or work area for easy access.
Some units come with a heater built into the tank system. Ask Nashville Porta Pros for a hot water portable sink if your crew is washing up after handling food, chemicals or after paint and coating work under OSHA 1926.51(f)(1).
A portable sink typically includes a deeper basin suited to washing hands, produce or hair, while a standard handwashing station focuses on quick hand cleaning. Both use a self-contained water tank and meet 29 CFR 1910.141(d)(2) when stocked with soap and towels.
