Does Midland County service reach beyond the city of Midland?
Yes, our Midland County service reaches rural leases, ranches and homes outside the city limits. Midland County has one big city, Midland, plus a small slice of Odessa on its west edge, and the rest of its 900 square miles is mostly open land. Same-day delivery covers Midland, and rural Midland County sites are quoted by distance.
County-wide gatherings center on the Midland County Horseshoe Arena & Pavilion, home of the Midland County Fair in late August. Odessa ZIPs 79765 and 79766 straddle the Ector and Midland line, so we confirm which side of the line your site is on. Rural sites past the city edge usually need a GPS pin, since many lease roads carry no address.
- Midland (seat; small part in Martin County)
- Odessa (part; mostly Ector County)

Which Midland County oilfield jobs need portable toilets?
Rig and completion crews on the Spraberry Trend are the biggest users of portable toilets in Midland County. The Spraberry is the third-largest U.S. oil field by reserves, and Midland County also ranks second in Texas for gas. Those 6,602 wells keep workover, pipeline and pad-building crews busy far from any plumbing.
- Drilling and completion pads across the Spraberry Trend
- Workover and well-service crews hopping between leases
- Energy office campus construction inside Midland
- Pipeline spreads that tie rural leases together
- Hand-wash stations for crews handling crude and chemicals
Hypothetical example
a 60-person completion crew on a Spraberry pad
A completion job in Midland County puts 60 workers on one pad. OSHA Table D-1 (20 or more workers) calls for 1 seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers: 60 ÷ 40 = 1.5, rounded up to 2 seats and 2 urinals. Our rule of 1 unit per 10 workers gives 60 ÷ 10 = 6 standard units with weekly service. OSHA 1926.51(f) also requires washing facilities, so we would add 2 hand-wash stations near the doghouse.
Rural access
How do trucks reach lease sites in rural Midland County?
Midland County lease sites are reached by private lease roads off I-20, TX-191, SH-349 and TX-158. Send a GPS pin, the lease name and the gate code when you book, because most Midland County pads have no street address. A 2-stall trailer also needs level ground, a 110V outlet and a water hose at the pad.
- Give the operator and lease name, since pads off SH-349 and TX-158 can look alike from the road.
- Tell us when rig moves or frac work will block the lease road on service day.
- Set units upwind of tank batteries and well clear of flare lines.
- On unincorporated home lots with septic, keep units off the drain field.

Weather
How does Midland County weather change servicing?
Midland International Airport logs about 13.51 inches of rain in a normal year, and a 93 mph gust hit there in June 2007. On open Midland County pads, we stake units so wind can't tip them. The February 2021 freeze dropped Midland to -2°F, so winter rentals in Midland County get checked for frozen tanks.
