Shower Trailers Support a Variety of Industries

When our founder started Portable Restroom Trailers, she wanted to change the industry by creating restroom trailers for every need. From events to construction, sports to resort destinations, there is such a diverse variety of businesses that have put shower trailers to good use. When we begin conversations about our shower trailers with certain clients, we often hear that companies can’t envision much use for them. They don’t immediately see the many benefits that shower trailers provide. “How can a shower trailer support my business?” is one of our favorite questions to receive! There can be so much value in providing your business with a shower. Depending on your industry, we have outlined some ways that others have made use of shower trailers. Read about these experiences below and see how you can use shower trailers to elevate your business operations. Hospitals In an ideal world, a hospital would not be a place where long term stays are needed, but often times patients with serious ailments must stay onsite to get nursed back to health. When hospitals have more in-house patients than usual, they come to us with a need for shower trailers. This provides not only a clean environment to use the restroom in, but also provides them with extra showers. We make many shower trailers that are ADA-compliant as well, like the ADA Combo, large enough to fit gurneys in with ease. Offsite Workstations It takes a savvy manager to think about the needs of off site employees. Construction workers performing in extreme heat, truckers staying the night at rest stops, and resort maintenance teams all spend time pretty far from a brick-and-mortar restroom option. Access to a toilet is limited, let alone a shower. Go the extra mile for your team by providing shower trailers like the 3 Station Cabo Series, a comfortable restroom experience that will make them feel cared for and refreshed. Country Clubs/ Poolside Many professionals like to get away from the office and everyday life by visiting their local country club. It’s a great way to feel that sense of escape without leaving town. Many of these clubs feature acres of activity, from golf to tennis to swimming. When guests venture out to play and relax, the brick-and-mortar restroom and shower options may simply be too far. Create convenience and efficiency with shower trailers - their portability allows you to place them anywhere needed and our high-end collections like the 6 Station Classic Series will complement the ambiance of your club. Campsites We all love to escape the hustle and bustle of towns and cities by spending time in nature. Removed from the conveniences of everyday life, camping is a rustic experience that helps us get in touch with our survival instinct and appreciate simpler pleasures. While living without most of our day-to-day amenities is doable, we all eventually need a refreshing shower, especially when camping in warm weather without the luxury of air conditioning. Keep camp guests comfortable and feeling fresh with shower trailers. It’s an affordable solution in comparison to building a brick-and-mortar option and ensures you don’t compromise nature. We recommend the Affordable Advantage Series for campgrounds Gyms and Campuses It’s important to stay active! Many Americans enjoy early mornings or evenings after work at the gym, ensuring they maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Students on high school and college campuses also lead more active lifestyles with sports and classes that keep them moving. While these locations come with their own built-in restroom and showers, perhaps you need to expand. Older buildings need updates and renovations or are being rebuilt. No matter what may come up, shower trailer rentals are a quick and easy way to provide your crowd with the showers they need to stay clean and comfortable during their visit.  Are you ready to add shower trailers to your business?  Browse options here then request a quote to get the process started.

Winterproofing your Restroom Trailers

Here at Portable Restroom Trailers, we pride ourselves in providing the best products in our industry. We build products with quality that lasts, but despite all the precautions we may take during production, some things are hard to prepare for. We know it’s a little early to start thinking about those winter storms to come, but best to be as prepared as possible! For those who experience extreme weather conditions, we know how hard it can get to maintain your restroom trailers. Maintenance issues are bound to arise: what if your water freezes? What if the hose gets clogged by ice? How do I keep my restroom guests comfortable during use? These are all thoughts we’ve had when thinking about how to continue to improve our product. We want you to have the highest quality experience possible after your purchase. When it comes to cold weather, note these tips to ensure your restroom trailers stay functioning and keep that high quality for long periods of time.    PROTECT YOUR WATER SUPPLY Wrap heat tape around a ¾” garden hose. Use duct tape to hold it in place, about every 12 inches. Put foam tube insulation around the hose and heat tape. Leave the plugs and power lights uncovered. Run duct tape down the insulation, leaving the connecting ends, plugs and power lights uncovered. If you cover them, you will not be able to connect the water or power. Leave test lights and power lights uncovered (for testing and to be sure the hose remains working).   MAINTAIN INTERIOR TEMPERATURES Place two 1500-watt electric heaters under the unit. Be sure you have sufficient power! Build a 2×2 or 2×4 wood frame to fit underneath each side of the unit. This is going to box the bottom of the outside of the unit. Fill any gaps with insulation Cut ½” plywood to fit frame for each side. Be sure to consider stairs when cutting your wood. Stairs should be out and in place before measuring. Measure and cut out a 6”x6” square to cover the drain access. Attach this with hinges so you can access the drain when needed. This will protect drain valve from freezing. Eliminate gaps and holes on the tongue side of the unit with R-13 (or greater) insulation. Staple insulation inside the wood box Cut a piece of insulation in half and lay it on the ground where the box will be placed. This eliminates gaps between the wood and the ground. Fill any small gaps on the top and bottom of the box with insulation Staple bubble wrap around the outside of the wood unit. This closes of gaps and keeps cold air out and heat in. Use electrical tape to cover plug connections that will remain outside.   NOT USING YOUR RESTROOM TRAILERS THIS WINTER?   Eliminate the use of power and water until the unit is ready to be used again. Drain water from all the lines. Add non-toxic RV “Pink Water System” antifreeze Unplug   Follow these simple tips and your restroom trailers will maintain their quality for a long time coming!

Portable Restrooms Elevate Travel Experience

As the seasons change and people across the nation begin thinking about holiday season, travel is on many of our minds. This is a time that many reserve for friends and family, and those beloved folks who live a long drive - or even a long flight - away are top priority. As the travel industry gears up for the large volume of travelers this year, especially after a holiday season of COVID-19 last year, it is wise for businesses and cities to anticipate these crowds. We have designed portable restrooms that are built to assist the tourism and hospitality industries with an elevated brand experience in mind.  What makes a town or city memorable? What makes us want to add it to our must-see list? There are many things that inspire us to venture, like history, culture, food, and interesting people. What also leaves a lasting impression on our opinion of a new place, occasionally just on a subconscious level, is cleanliness. Most iconic cities make it a point to keep their streets clean, and when we visit those places that don’t, there is a level of negativity left on our impression. One of the best ways for cities to solve their dirty problem is by providing public restrooms with a portable bathroom trailer rental. Why would restrooms make a difference, you ask? Public restrooms encourage people to relieve themselves in a more humane way, especially those who are homeless or displaced. We know, it’s not a glamorous topic, but it is an important one. Read below to discover our portable retroom recommendations that will elevate tourism experience.  Public Spaces Does your city have those great spaces where people love to gather and hang out? Maybe a waterfront or wharf with great views, a giant chess board that brings tourists and locals together, or a weekly farmers market filled with farm-to-fork foods? People love public spaces like these, and it’s important to provide a restroom option for those who visit. We recommend the well-designed yet durable 12 Station Tradewinds Series, a restroom trailer that can handle high volumes of visitation with ease. Events Everyone loves events, and we are so glad they are back and better than ever! For your city’s upcoming concerts, pop-up shops, markets, and more, we recommend the 10 Station Calypso Plus Series. Its ability to handle those extra large crowds will ensure your event operations run smoothly. Hotels Hotels offer visitors a place to call home while on the go. The hospitality industry does a great job with creating spaces that excite travelers while also making them feel comfortable. When recommending portable restroom trailers to hotels, we know we need to prioritize interior design and ambiance. A great match for an upscale environment is the 9 Station Seabreeze Luxury Series. Parks Every destination has that centrally located park that locals and tourists alike love to visit. They are usually well kept, have fun secret things to discover throughout, and offer a location for people to relax, gather, eat, and enjoy a little nature. It is crucial that parks have accessible restrooms, but sometimes the cost of a brick-and-mortar option is too high. Portable restrooms offer a solution, and for parks, we recommend the 8 Station Optimum Series, a restroom durable to handle park visitors of all ages.
