Do you deliver porta potties in La Mirada?
Yes. David Rental Works delivers porta potties to every La Mirada address in ZIP 90638, from Foster Park to the homes around Biola University. La Mirada is about 6 to 8 miles from our Hadley St yard in Whittier, so most trucks reach the city in 15 to 20 minutes.
La Mirada sits right on the line between Los Angeles and Orange counties. That makes it one of our shortest runs outside Whittier. We serve backyard parties, church events, home remodels and the warehouse strip along Valley View Ave.
The city had 48,008 residents in the 2020 census. Most homes are single-story ranch houses with wide driveways, which makes placement easy.

Do I need a permit for a porta potty on a La Mirada street?
A porta potty on your own driveway or lawn in La Mirada normally needs no permit. A porta potty placed on a La Mirada street, sidewalk or parkway is an encroachment into the public right-of-way, and the city's Public Works Department handles those requests. Plan on 2 to 3 business days to ask.
Legal minimum: anything left in the public right-of-way needs the city's approval first. Start with La Mirada Public Works.
Our recommendation: skip the street. A driveway spot within 15 feet of where the truck parks is faster, cheaper and safer from street sweepers.
Check first: This is general information, not legal advice. Confirm with La Mirada Public Works before you place a unit on the street.
Which porta potty fits La Mirada jobs and events?
Most La Mirada orders are 1 standard porta potty for a backyard party or a home remodel. Events at a home with food usually add 1 hand wash station. Weddings and church receptions often choose a deluxe flushing unit. Any public event should include at least 1 wheelchair-accessible unit.
| La Mirada job | Unit we usually send | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Backyard graduation or birthday | 1 standard + 1 hand wash station | Food is served; standard units have sanitizer, not a sink |
| Kitchen or bath remodel | 1 standard, weekly service | Crew of up to about 10 on a 40-hour week |
| Church or school fundraiser | Standard units + 1 wheelchair-accessible unit | Public guests; 5% accessible rule for clusters |
| Wedding reception at home | Deluxe flushing unit or restroom trailer | Sink, mirror and a flush feel |

How fast can you get a porta potty to La Mirada?
La Mirada gets same-day delivery when you call by 12 noon, Monday to Saturday, and a unit is in the yard. Orders after noon arrive the next day. The drive from Whittier takes about 15 to 20 minutes, so La Mirada often fits into a same-day route.
| Part of La Mirada | Usual route from Hadley St | Typical drive |
|---|---|---|
| North side, Granada Heights, Biola area | Whittier Blvd to La Mirada Blvd | 15–20 min |
| Foster Park, Gardenhill | Leffingwell Rd to Valley View Ave | 15–20 min |
| South side near I-5 and Alondra | Imperial Hwy to Valley View Ave | 20–25 min |
| East end near Beach Blvd (SR 39) | Imperial Hwy east | 20–25 min |
The driver calls 30 minutes before arrival. We give a morning or afternoon window, not an exact time. A same-day fee may apply outside Whittier; if it does, it is on the quote before you pay.
What should La Mirada customers know about placement?
Most La Mirada homes have a flat, 2-car driveway, so placement is simple. The 3 things to watch are block walls, side-yard gates under 48 inches and street-sweeping days. Tell us about any of these when you book and the driver will plan the spot before he arrives.
- Side-yard gates must give about 48 inches of clear space for a standard PolyJohn PJN3 and its dolly.
- Summer events near La Mirada Regional Park and Creek Park can run hot. Ask for an extra mid-event service for long parties.
- Biola-area streets fill with parked cars during school events. Leave a clear truck spot or give us a contact who can move a car.
- Warehouses along Valley View Ave: add the dock contact and gate hours to the work order.
What do callers ask before they rent?
Across the 74 rental calls we reviewed, about 9 in 10 people asked for the price and a specific date in the first minute. The next big question was handwashing: 15 callers did not know a standard unit has hand sanitizer but no sink.
Compare a separate station with a built-in sink on our hand wash station page.

Real questions from our customer calls, answered by our dispatch team.
How much is a porta potty for a party in La Mirada?
A standard porta potty for an event starts at about $175, with delivery, setup and pickup included, for up to 3 days on site. Add a hand wash station from about $125. Typical starting price as of October 2026; your itemized quote is final.
Can you drop it off Friday for a Saturday party near Biola?
Yes. Weekend events are delivered Friday and picked up Monday at no extra cost. Tell us about street parking so the driver can reach your driveway.
Is La Mirada close enough for same-day delivery?
Usually, yes. Our yard is about 15 to 20 minutes away. Call by noon, Monday to Saturday, and we deliver the same day when a unit is free. A same-day fee may apply and is shown first.
Do I need a permit if the porta potty stays on my driveway?
Normally no. Private driveways and yards do not need a city permit. Units on the street or sidewalk do; check with La Mirada Public Works.
Can you service a remodel in Foster Park every week?
Yes. Long-term units get weekly pumping, cleaning and restocking, included in the 28-day price. Crews over about 10 people per unit should add a second weekly visit.
Do you deliver to warehouses off Valley View Ave?
Yes. We serve industrial yards and loading docks. Give us the gate hours and a site contact, and we can email a certificate of insurance the same day.
