1. Make the call
Dial (888) 859-8608 and walk us through where the units go, the drop-off date, how long you need them and how many people will use them. Mention anything that complicates access: a doorman or super, a loading zone, a street permit, a route that would otherwise use a parkway, a long carry from the curb, or a gravel lane that ices over.
2. Build the plan
You get a recommended unit mix and count, plus a clear picture of what the rental covers, how pumping visits work and when pickup happens. Price and dates come out of that conversation rather than a generic rate card.
3. Get the spot ready
Choose flat, solid ground a pump truck can reach, away from plow piles, puddles and fire lanes. In the city, find out whether the unit can stay on private property or needs curb or sidewalk approval. Name someone who will answer the phone on drop-off day.
4. Drop-off
The driver sets units in the agreed spot. For events, that happens before vendors and guests arrive. For job sites, we help pick a location clear of hoists, deliveries and equipment paths.
5. Pumping visits
Multi-day events and active sites need regular visits. How often depends on the headcount, the weather and the layout, and it is agreed before day one. In cold months, ask how tanks are treated so they do not freeze.
6. Weather and date changes
New York weather can move a schedule fast. If a nor’easter, lake-effect band, coastal flood warning or travel ban is coming, call as early as you can so we can talk through options, and expect no guarantees about outcomes.
7. Pickup
When the job or event wraps, the truck comes back for the units. Running long or finishing early? Call ahead so the pickup moves with you.
