Bloomington at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Minneapolis/St Paul Ap, MN station, about 6 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Hennepin County in the Cold climate region (IECC 2021 zone 6A, PNNL county guide). Winters in this region are long enough that freezing, not heat, is usually the main limit on units that carry water.
Freezing Nights
About 147 nights a year drop to 32°F or below, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so freezing weather covers a large part of the year. Anything that holds fresh water freezes first: hand-wash stations, deluxe flush tanks and trailer plumbing. For winter dates, ask for winterized units or a heated restroom trailer, or plan on sanitizer.
Snow and Access
Average snowfall is about 51 inches a year, more than three in four U.S. places in our data, enough to bury a ground-level path several times a winter. Service trucks need a plowed path to each unit all winter, and a cleared, packed pad keeps units level as snow piles up; agree who clears the route.
Job Sites and Home Projects
Building in Existing Neighborhoods
About 7.2% of Bloomington's housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024), below the U.S. share of 11.4%, though above the median U.S. place in our data, so most homes predate 2010 and many projects are renovations or additions to existing buildings.
Homes From the 1970s and 1980s
The median year built for Bloomington's housing is 1972 (ACS 2020–2024), older than most U.S. places in our data. Housing from that era is now 35 to 55 years old; crews replacing roofs, windows or mechanical systems on it need a toilet on site like any other crew.
Older Paint on Renovation Jobs
A large share of Bloomington's housing, about 67% of units, was built before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). EPA’s Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule covers paid work that disturbs painted surfaces in homes built before 1978, and OSHA’s lead standard for construction (29 CFR 1926.62) requires adequate hand-washing facilities for workers exposed to lead. If the crew will sand, scrape or demolish old paint, put one of the hand-wash stations next to the toilet.
Apartments, Townhouses and Rentals
The most common housing type is detached houses, about 53% of units (lower than three in four U.S. places in our data), followed by buildings with five or more units at about 34% (ACS 2020–2024). Detached houses usually have a driveway or yard where a crew's unit can stand within reach of the service truck. Apartment and condo projects bring larger crews, and a property manager decides where units go. About 34% of occupied homes are rented (owner share lower than most U.S. places in our data), so check who controls the property before a unit goes on it.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 scales with headcount: 45 workers on an apartment or condo site need 2 toilet seats and 2 urinals, 210 need 5 of each. More on sizing: construction rentals in Minnesota.
Events, Weddings and Parties
A three-hour winter event for 1,000 people needs 8 units on the PSAI event chart, or 9 to 10 with alcohol (PSAI adds 10–20%). Every cluster of restrooms needs at least 5% accessible units, rounded up; for winter events, clear the route to the ADA unit at full width, not just a footpath.
Cold, not heat, limits the outdoor season: from late fall into spring, ask for a heated restroom trailer or units that do not depend on running water. For a party at an apartment complex or a rented home, the property manager or landlord decides where units can stand. For winter events, clear and pack a path for guests and for the service truck before setup. More: event rentals in Minnesota and wedding restrooms in Minnesota.

Bloomington is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land, or a unit that will stand on a street, sidewalk or in a park, ask the Bloomington city government before you book what applies.
