Kings Dominion has a unique place in the history and tradition of American amusement parks, and PRT is proud to be the park’s long-term partner for portable ADA restroom rentals.  Founded in 1975 outside Richmond, VA – Kings Dominion was built in the model of its successful sister park, Kings Island, near Cincinnati, OH.  Only two years after its grand opening, Kings Dominion was featured in the major Hollywood production Rollercoaster, starring Henry Fonda.Over the following 40+ years, Kings Dominion has continually expanded – regularly adding new roller coasters and rides to its 400-acre campus.  Its 305-foot-high Drop Tower was the tallest freefall ride in the world when it opened in 2003.  And its infamous Volcano roller coaster draws thrill seekers from around the world – helping to propel parent company Cedar Fair to record-high revenues in 2016.   Providing an Accessible Experience to All Guests, Regardless of Physical Abilities   Throughout its storied history, the accessibility of its rides, events, and attractions has been a source of pride for Kings Dominion.  An ADA-compliant shuttle bus is available to transport guests to and from the park’s campground and several nearby hotels.  And the park offers motorized wheelchair rentals to make the entire campus easily accessible to guests with any type of mobility impairment.Almost every ride in the park is wheelchair accessible.  Several of the rides have wheelchair lifts allowing easy access to 2nd story loading platforms.  Rides that require use of gas pedals have optional hand controls.  Some rides have been built with removable sides to allow easy access to those with mobility impairments.  And several more rides have special transfer devices that allow riders to move from their wheelchair into the ride seat with ease.Kings Dominion has never limited its accessibility efforts to rollercoasters and rides.  Many of the attractions in its 20-acre Soak City water park are also wheelchair accessible.  And each one of the park’s show venues is wheelchair accessible, with assisted listening devices and large print scripts available for the hearing impaired.   Partnering with PRT for Long-Term Restroom Rentals   Back in 2015, Kings Dominion contacted PRT to arrange a long-term rental agreement for an ADA restroom trailer.  Park management had identified an area within the Soak City water park where an ADA-compliant restroom would provide additional convenience for guests in wheelchairs.  We helped Kings Dominion find a trailer that met their requirements and fit perfectly into the available space.The grounds crew at Kings Dominion put up a few additional feet of fencing to create a themed entryway for the restroom trailer.  They added a custom paint job to the new fencing, and the trailer fit seamlessly into the existing water park.  Guests were very pleased with the new restroom.  We were thrilled to welcome Kings Dominion to the PRT family and introduce them to our ongoing customer support team.Our initial rental agreement began in April 2015 with a 5-month term.  The portable ADA restroom was initially viewed as a short-term fix – but it worked so well that Kings Dominion opted to extend the agreement when it ran out in the fall of 2015, and they’ve been a happy PRT customer ever since.   Fully ADA Compliant Portable Restroom Rentals   PRT’s ADA restroom trailers are a simple and attractive solution that can bring accessible bathrooms to any location.  The ADA +2 trailer rented by Kings Dominion features a fully compliant unisex ADA stall, along with one dedicated women’s stall and one dedicated men’s stall.  The trailer comes standard with a folding wheelchair ramp with stainless steel railings.  When in position, the entire trailer lowers to ground level using an integrated hydraulic lift system.Each of the bathroom stalls features authentic china fixtures, shatterproof mirrors, and solid surface countertops with in-counter wastebaskets.  The unisex ADA stall has a push-button flush mechanism.  The sink, faucet, and door handle are wheelchair accessible; and the stall allows a full 360-degree turning radius for standard-sized wheelchairs.As with all PRT trailers, the interior is finished with high-end components that provide a long lifetime of clean comfort with minimal maintenance.  The insulated walls are finished with mar-resistant laminate.   The one-piece ceiling houses the low-profile air supply and return for the roof-mounted air conditioner.  The bottom of each stall is constructed with one piece of non-skid rubber flooring.  And abundant LED lighting at each doorway ensures safe entry and exit in low light.   Extending Our Relationship with Kings Dominion   We were very pleased to learn recently that Kings Dominion will be continuing their rental agreement with PRT through the summer of 2017.  We look forward to providing whatever support is necessary to fulfill their needs over the coming year.  Repeat business is a key metric for measuring our success here at PRT.  We view each of our long-term restroom rentals as an important gauge of our ongoing goal of 100% customer satisfaction. 

When you think of shower trailer rentals, you probably don’t conjure up images of astounding natural beauty.  But, then again, maybe you should.  As PRT has learned over the last several years, our industry-leading restroom trailers are right at home among some of the most beautiful natural scenery that America has to offer. Sprawling across the Sierra Nevada mountain range lies one of our country’s most prized natural resources.  Sequoia National Park is home to the infamous “Giant Forest” of sequoia trees, and the General Sherman Tree – the largest living tree in the world. More than a million adventurers visit the park each year.  When you consider that the park spans more than 400,000 acres and keeps a staff of hundreds working all year long – you can see how managing the shower trailers might start to become a real challenge. Shower Trailer Rentals for Remote Locations When you’re introducing a shower trailer in a remote location, there are some additional concerns that you don’t typically consider for an urban or suburban location.  Accessibility for maintenance and pumping, durability in harsh conditions, and trailer security must all be taken into account. In a setting like Sequoia National Park, mobility is also a major concern, as large working teams routinely move from one location to another.  And during the busy summertime season, large crowds can spring up in various locations throughout the park. After weighing their requirements against the benefits of several different options, the management of Sequoia National Park decided to contact PRT.  They wanted to discuss the possibility of a long-term rental agreement for a special need of theirs – highly mobile shower trailer rentals that include a hot shower. PRT’s 6 Station Shower/Restroom Combo Our 6 station shower/restroom combo proved to be a great fit for the needs of the staff at Sequoia National Park.  These trailers offer 6 separate unisex stalls, each with a private toilet, sink, and hot water shower. When visitors enter the stall through the private, locking exterior doorway they are greeted by an array of high-end features that provide cleanliness and comfort.  The full-size 32x32-inch shower stalls are a single piece of molded acrylic, separated from the changing area by a privacy curtain.  The changing area features a flushable china toilet, a shatter-proof vanity mirror, and a corner sink. The instant hot water is powered by dual propane tanks which together provide enough fuel to heat 700 short showers.  Low-profile heat strips and a roof-mounted air conditioner are available for additional comfort through all four seasons. Shower Trailer Rental on the Move One of the biggest requirements for Sequoia National Park was mobility.  They need to be able to move all shower trailer rentals regularly from one place to another, to follow work crews as they move around the park. Our simple “hitch & tow” design means you can move a PRT trailer anytime with a standard powered trailer hitch.  With standard ball sizes and an electric braking system, moving our trailers from one location to another is as easy as it can be.  Contact our customer satisfaction team anytime at (877) 600-8645 to request specifications for tongue weight, curb weight and trailer dimensions. Clients with exceptionally big sites have been some of the best early adopters of PRT’s new Smarter Restrooms Mobile App.  Our app includes visual GPS-tracking on all compatible shower trailer rentals, along with the ability to remotely lock the unit, check tank levels, and more. Long-Term Partnerships – A PRT Passion At PRT, one of our most important business metrics is repeat business.  Every time a customer calls us back to place a repeat order, we celebrate.  We know that the confidence and appreciation of our clients is our single biggest business asset, and we work hard to uphold a gold standard of customer satisfaction for each one of our customers. We were very pleased to hear from Sequoia National Forest recently that they will be extending their long-term rental agreement with PRT.  We are honored to be a partner in the ongoing success of our national park system, and we’re looking forward to exceeding the expectations of the Sequoia National Forest staff for another term. If you’re interested in joining the family of satisfied PRT customers, please get in touch with us by phone or using the contact form on our website.  Someone from our dedicated customer satisfaction team will be happy to review your requirements and discuss the many different options PRT provides for shower trailer rentals and financing plans.
