The taxpayer provided both: a customer could lease portable toilets, could purchase toilet cleaning services, or could lease toilets and purchase cleaning services together. There was no question that services alone were nontaxable or that the lease of toilets alone was taxable.
The issue was how tax should apply when toilets and cleaning services were provided together. The taxpayer had collected tax on the charges for the toilets but had not collected tax on charges for services in such transactions.

The charges for offering the service of bringing a portable restrooms to a customer’s location for a period of take, maintaining the unit during the time it is at the customer’s location as required under state law and then picking up the unit at the end of the agreement are taxed under the service and other activities classification of the B&O tax.
In addition, the owner of the portable toilets should pay sales tax or use tax on each unit, since they are not re-renting the units to the customers. The owner of the units must also pay sales tax or use tax on the chemicals, toilet paper, and other supplies required to maintain the units.

Hi
Yes I totally agree with josphine that the owner of the potable toilet must pay the sales tax on each of the unit. To know complete information on the sales tax structure of the portable toilets, you can visit https://www.hireportabletoilets.com.au/
