Disaster Relief Bathroom Trailers

Portable Bathrooms Support First Responders

First responders have very important jobs. They are out on the front-line saving lives. Their efforts have been recognized in mitigating crises like the COVID pandemic, 911, and many more.  Portable Restroom Trailers recognizes the efforts of first responders. Providing them with a means of comfort in stressful times is the least we can do. This article will review some of our portable bathrooms that are suitable for the toughest of circumstances.  The Difficult Job of First Responders First responders deal with a wide range of difficult situations. They may be called to deal with injuries, domestic abuse cases, and criminal activities. They may fight fires or come to scenes of disasters.  While some incidents put emergency responders at the scene of an incident for just a short time, others require workers to be there for extended periods. They may spend hours digging through rubble to look for survivors after a building collapse. They may spend days trying to put out a fire.  During these times, any bit of comfort can feel like a blessing. Portable Restroom Trailers believe we do our part by providing portable restrooms that are clean and comfortable. They must be durable enough to handle whatever the situation throws their way.  Which Portable Bathrooms Are Best for First Responders? Portable bathrooms for first responders must be able to weather wear and tear. They must be easy to clean. They must offer comfort in distressing times.  Here are a few we recommend.  ADA 6 Restroom Tenacity Series: With a name like Tenacity, you know these portable bathrooms will be ready for anything.

Hurricane Preparedness Tips and Emergency Restroom Trailers

As the Southeast United States and at-risk locations around the world anticipate the hurricanes to come, families prepare to survive the storm and, in some extreme cases, evacuate. While we’ve faced many similar storms in the past all over the US, some aren’t sure of the measures it takes to be truly prepared for a storm of this magnitude. Our heart goes out to those who are affected, and we are ready to supply portable restroom trailers to the organizations that aid in hurricane relief.We want to take the time to share the importance of planning ahead and being ready for storms of this nature to hit. As you or members of your family or friend group prepare for the storm to come, make sure you are as ready as possible with these tips from leading references. Know Your Hurricane RiskDepending on where you live, your risk may be very high or very low. While it may seem obvious which category you fall in, you’d be surprised how much inland dwellers are affected by a storm that seemingly happens only near the coast.For those living on the coast, you are high risk. Depending on the intensity of the hurricane to come, you should have an evacuation plan prepared. You are most at risk for extreme winds and flooding, and surge thunderstorms.For those living inland, HurricaneScience.org reports that coastal flooding can reach tens of miles from the coast. Those living within 75-100 miles from the coast should prepare for an increase in winds and rain. Sign up to get alerts and warnings in your area here: https://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/94715 Know Your Evacuation ZoneFor those located in high risk areas, flooding is very destructive and driving in flooded areas can be dangerous. We recommend having an evacuation plan in order so that when you are warned by your local officials, you can head to safety. Make sure you have an evacuation plan. Keep your car’s gas tank at half full at all times and have any necessary items packed and ready to go. For those who rely on public transportation, contact your local emergency management agency for an evacuation plan.For those living in mid- to low-risk areas, you should still be prepared for extreme weather. Track the storm and listen to local officials as they determine how far inland the storm will travel, and be prepared to take extra precautions against high winds and rain.When you have been instructed to evacuate, please do so for the safety of yourself and your family. Use this link to thoroughly review and create an evacuation plan if necessary: https://www.ready.gov/evacuating-yourself-and-your-family Prepare FinanciallyThe hardest thing about evacuating can be lack of funds. The Federal Reserve has reported that almost 60 percent of Americans don’t have $400 in savings. Make sure that you aren’t trapped during a hurricane by putting aside a little bit of each paycheck. These funds can ensure that you and your family are ready to go should an evacuation be necessary. Read more tips on financial preparedness here: https://www.ready.gov/financial-preparedness.For businesses, purchase business-interruption insurance policies to help protect against losses due to damage.  Strengthen Your HomeWhether you are evacuating or simply need to stay home for shelter, wind and thunderstorms can take a toll on your home. Make sure that the structure of your home is prepared for the intense weather conditions by taking a few precautions.Bring in outdoor furniture or large items that may be tossed by the wind. Trim trees and shrubs to ensure that greenery isn’t blown around, becoming capable of damaging your home. Take measures to reinforce your roof, windows, and doors and use flood damage resistant materials.Should you need to evacuate, these additional steps could allow you to come home to minimal damage.  Stock Up on SuppliesThere are so many supplies that you can get beforehand to ensure that you aren’t caught in the chaos before evacuation time or during times when shelter is required. Think ahead and stock up on key items before it becomes urgent.ATMs and credit cards may not work during power outages, so take out some cash to have on hand for purchases. Stock an emergency kit with a battery operated radio, flashlights, non-perishable food, entertainment for children if necessary, bottled water, and blankets.Keep in mind that should you need to stay in your home for safety, this is all you have to rely on. Visit ready.gov/kit for a thorough list of items to stock up on should you need to take shelter for a long period of time. We Can HelpAs a leading provider of portable restroom trailers, we are here to help those in need.

Shower Trailer Rentals Can Support First Responders

When our founder first started Portable Restroom Trailers, one major goal was to ensure we could provide restroom and shower trailer rentals for those who need disaster relief. There isn’t much that we experience in life that is quite as devastating as natural disasters. Many of them are unpredictable and sporadic, leaving communities unsure about their safety. Some seem like they aren’t going to be huge only to completely wipe out a city. Even when a disaster ends up being smaller and less damaging than predicted, the costs of preparations and evacuations can add up quickly.After a natural disaster hits, whether that be a tornado, hurricane, mudslide, fire, or other acts of nature, we see fellow Americans lose everything and suffer through the rebuilding it takes to put life back together. We are thankful for the nonprofits and first responders that are on the ground assisting these victims and do what we can to support them.When an individual has nothing, something as simple as a restroom or shower can be comforting. That’s why we prioritize providing our restroom and shower trailer rentals to the organizations helping them. A shower is something we truly take for granted in everyday life. It’s such a mundane task, yet for these survivors, it’s a small slice of normalcy when hope seems to be lost.Below, we outline three ways our shower trailers have aided in disaster relief over the years, and we plan to keep supplying them to whoever needs them. If you or your community suffer through a natural disaster, you can trust that we are here to assist.First RespondersMany of us have benefitted from their service, especially during emergency situations. Thanks to these brave men and women, fires get put out, families at risk of drowning in floods are rescued, animals are saved, and many who would have been seriously injured or left for worse are helped.Being a first responder of any kind is a tasking job that demands long hours, heavy lifting, and difficult working conditions. At the end of each shift, these rescuers are exhausted and beat, yet ready to get back out there and do it all again tomorrow. Shower trailers can provide a quick, relaxing break for those who need it most. We’ve all gotten out of the shower feeling energized and rejuvenated, and these brave people deserve that feeling most. Nonprofit OrganizationsAlongside many first responders are the nonprofit organizations that show up at disaster sites to support. They provide housing, food, water, beds, and so much more for the affected communities. Without them, it would be much harder for our neighbors to get back on their feet.Fortunately, nonprofits bring volunteers who are willing to sacrifice their safety and time for free, and these volunteers deserve the best treatment they can get. A shower can, like with the first responders, relieve stress, tension, exhaustion, and more. Our shower trailers are designed to give these fearless working a chance to get some privacy, cleanliness, soothing and comfort that a hot shower can provide. CommunityA nonprofit organization or first responder’s job would be twice as hard without a location to operate. Thanks to local churches, community centers, town halls, and other buildings open to the public, offsite nonprofits are able to come and set up a space for those who are rescued. Food, water, and supplies are often given to these survivors, and many of them will need that location as housing.Survivors go through so much during natural disasters, and some lose everything. We have seen shower trailers provide families with a place to clean up after their trauma, comfort those who have lost so much, and give a sense of normalcy among all of the chaos. This is why we love working with nonprofits - supplying survivors with something as simple as a shower can go a long way.Shower Trailer Rentals in Your CommunityWe never know when disaster will strike, but rest assured, no matter what your community may experience during these hard times, we are here to help in the small way that we can. Let our shower trailer rentals bring rest to your volunteers and staff, and comfort to those who may have lost it all.Browse our available inventory of shower trailer rentals here, and if you know of a nonprofit, community location, or first responder site that could benefit from a trailer, contact us. We’d be happy to begin the conversation and help those who need it.
