Conditions at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Huntsville Intl Ap, AL station, about 7 miles away.
Conditions for Events
DOE's Building America map puts Madison County in the Mixed-Humid climate region (IECC 2021 zone 3A, PNNL county guide). This region gets both a real summer and a real winter, so a July rental and a January rental need different planning.
Heat
About 62 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than most U.S. places in our data, most of them in the summer months. For long rentals in the hot, humid months, ask how often units will be serviced. For summer events, schedule servicing between event days and place restroom rows where the queue can stand in shade.
Freezing Nights
About 56 nights a year reach 32°F or below, fewer than most U.S. places in our data, mostly between late fall and early spring. Spring and fall events can still catch a freeze overnight; if units stay out between event days, ask how hand-wash stations are protected.
Outdoor Season
Both ends of the year matter: summer dates need servicing and shade planned for heat, winter dates need a plan for anything that carries water.
How Many Units
The Portable Sanitation Association International (PSAI) chart sizes event restrooms by crowd and hours, assuming no servicing during the event:
| Crowd | 1 hr | 2 hrs | 3 hrs | 4 hrs | 5 hrs | 6 hrs | 7 hrs | 8 hrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 9 | 9 |
| 1,000 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 8 | 9 | 9 | 11 | 12 |
| 2,000 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 |
| 5,000 | 12 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 31 | 38 | 44 | 50 |
| 10,000 | 15 | 25 | 38 | 50 | 63 | 75 | 88 | 100 |
For a summer event in Huntsville, take 2,000 people over four hours: the chart gives 12 units. If alcohol is served, PSAI adds 10–20%, which is 14 to 15 units after rounding up. For accessibility, 5% of 15 is 0.75, which rounds up to 1 ADA unit in a single cluster; split into 2 clusters of 8 and 7, each cluster needs its own, so 2 ADA units in total.
Put hand-wash stations and shade at each row for summer dates. See the PSAI event chart for the full table.
Placement and Access
Put restroom rows on firm, level ground the service truck can reach, away from food prep, with ADA units on an accessible route and hand-wash stations beside the rows.
Rain and Ground
About 54 inches of precipitation falls in an average year, with about 16 days of an inch or more, in the top tenth of U.S. places in our data. Grass venues soften after heavy rain; set restroom rows on the firmest, highest ground beside a hard surface the truck can use, and keep the ADA route on pavement or another firm surface.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
Huntsville is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For a special event on public property, a park reservation, or restroom rows on a street or sidewalk, ask the Huntsville city government before you book what applies.
What to Ask For
- Expected attendance, including staff, vendors and volunteers
- Event hours, and whether it runs over several days
- Whether alcohol or food will be served
- ADA units for every cluster (at least 5%, rounded up) and hand-wash stations
- Winterized hand-wash stations for cold-season dates
