One per floor group on tall builds

A slim portable toilet built to ride a construction hoist or get flown by crane to an upper floor. Smaller tank, narrower body, lifting points molded or bolted in. On a mid-rise or high-rise build, this is the only unit that solves the problem.

The math on a tall build is about crew time, not comfort. Sending a framing crew from the fourteenth floor to a ground-level unit and back is fifteen to twenty minutes each trip. Multiply that across a crew and a week and the rental cost of a per-floor unit disappears into the rounding.

Austin's downtown and Domain-area tower construction keeps a working fleet of these in the region, but they are a specialty item and not every supplier stocks them. This is a category where casting a wider net across suppliers matters — the price spread between someone who has them sitting idle and someone who has to source one is large.

Service is the operational question. Some units get pumped in place with a hose run up the building, some get lowered on a schedule. Confirm which, because the answer changes both the price and your crane schedule.

Watch out

Lifting hardware has to be rated and inspected. Do not accept a standard unit with aftermarket eye bolts as a substitute for a purpose-built high-rise unit.
