Porta-potty rental for job sites

$100-$200/mo

Can You Write Off Porta-potty Rental for Job Sites?

Short answer: Yes: job site sanitation rental is a deductible job cost.

Self-employed people deduct ordinary and necessary business costs on Schedule C, which lowers both income tax and the 15.3% self-employment tax.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose. W-2 employees should ask about employer reimbursement.
