The Industry leader in smarter restroom trailers for municipalities, school districts, and government organizations Portable Restroom Trailers, LLC today announced the launch of a revolutionary new application, the Smarter Restrooms App. The interactive tool allows portable restroom rentals fleet owners to monitor and control operational systems for your portable restroom trailer(s) from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. The application will be available with new portable restroom trailers, featuring fingertip control to lock and unlock, and easily maintain systems operations. Specifically, it will monitor waste and freshwater tank levels, power, and interior climate control. Portable Restroom Rentals Fleet at Your Fingertips With the swipe of a finger,  maintain and secure your portable restroom rentals fleet. Portable restroom trailers are mobile, self-sustaining sanitation facilities complete with water-saving toilets, sinks with running hot and cold water, climate-control, and freshwater and waste tanks. The new application is an industry-changing innovation using a map to assess the location of the client’s entire fleet. It allows businesses to set up multiple geographic zones (geo zones) and receive alerts if any of their restroom trailers enter or exit these zones. Most importantly, users receive text/email alerts for any undesired activity, including freshwater and waste levels, shore power, inside temperature, security, and local weather. For portable restroom trailers utilized at beaches, swimming pools, and golf courses, units can be monitored and controlled remotely. Giving guests a clean and sanitary experience at all times. “We're always looking for ways to save our customers time and money - and that starts with maintaining your fleet or a single unit," said Teri Pahon, Portable Restroom Trailers, LLC President. "The mobile application allows you total control of operational systems from the palm of your hand. Lock and unlock your unit, verify power is on or off, verify interior climate control is adjusted properly with a couple of swipes. The app will revolutionize the way we maintain portable restroom trailers .”  

Construction is an important part of business and growth. Also important is that the construction workers are well taken care of so they can perform at their best. Part of taking care of the workers includes the most basic necessity: clean and attractive restroom facilities with flushable toilets and running water to wash hands. Portable Restroom Trailers, LLC supports construction growth with portable restroom rentals.The ChallengeConstruction workers were ready to begin work on the Arizona Energy Plant. Since this was to be a year-long project, their first task was planned to be building a brick and mortar bathroom facility. Wisely, the general contractors involved in this project assumed the construction workers would be more productive with access to clean flushable toilets and running water to wash their hands. The state of Arizona, however, had other plans.The construction company was not allowed to build the much needed bathroom facility because the site was considered restricted. Until they had some way for their construction workers to take bathroom breaks, work on this Arizona project could not begin. That’s when they called us.The SolutionThanks to efforts already underway, the site had access to a supply of running water. This made it easy for us to bring portable restroom rentals on site within a week of their initial contact. Due to the warm climate, and workforce quantity, we provided construction workers with a Luxury Key West 5-Station portable restroom.This spacious trailer is divided into two suites. The female suite consists of two bathroom stalls with pedal flush toilets, counter with full vanity mirror and elegant soap, sink and toilet paper fixtures. The male suite has two urinals with privacy dividers and one stall with full length locking door. In addition, this trailer comes stocked with soap, toilet paper, paper towels and waste basket liners.Despite the short notice and long-term need, we were able to provide the construction workers at Arizona Energy Plant with the solution they needed – and do it quickly. If the construction project winds up taking longer than the planned year, we can easily extend the lease on their portable restroom rental.Our fast response with a long-term solution meant this construction project was able to move forward without much loss of time or productivity. The general contractors, construction workers, and Arizona Energy Plant were all incredibly pleased with this result.What challenges is your company currently facing?

Offering the largest online inventory of new and used portable restroom and shower trailers comes with its responsibilities. Our sales team must be extremely knowledgeable about our trailers, and thoughtful in conversing with our customers to understand what trailer solution is the best fit for their needs and budget. Part of our ongoing commitment to customer service is investing in employee education and development. As such, our entire team recently attended the Water & Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport Show. The Water & Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport Show, or WWETT for short, was held February 23-26 in Indianapolis, IN. The world’s largest annual trade show for environmental service professionals included over 500 exhibits. Over 3,700 companies were in attendance, including Portable Restroom Trailers. Our sales team spent their time at the show checking out the displays and catching up one-on-one with customers. They also met with our leading manufacturers for a better understanding of their products and what makes each one unique. Members of the PRT sales team included: Enryk, Stephen, Willi, Sid, Rebecca, Amy, & Vanessa. Manufacturers we are official dealers for are: Ultra Lav, Comforts of Home, Black Tie, and ACSI. We will also be adding two new lines as a result of the show. Everyone took away something different from the show. Here is a wrap-up of highlights from each rep’s unique perspective. “It was really great to see the quality of Black Tie and ACSI trailers; they stood out to me. I was also impressed by the pumper service business and the magnitude of the industry” – Enryk “I left the show with a deeper understanding of the steel sloped tanks that ACSI uses and a great appreciation for their interiors. The new colors scheme and new layout on some units are very nice. Comforts of Home really impressed me with their hydraulic ADA units and so did Ultra Lav’s ADA units that are approved for use in California.” – Stephen “The show has so much to see and so much great information to take in and learn; I feel like I did not even get to scratch the surface! It was also wonderful to catch up with our team in person, and spend quality time together learning more about the industry.” – Willi “The show was a great opportunity to learn about how the portable restroom trailers are made. I gained great insights on how ACSI makes their waste tanks out of metal, so they last longer.” - Sid “There are a lot of moving parts in the sanitation industry. It was really cool to see all the different aspects of, from pumper trucks to cleaning chemicals to hose manufacturers. It was neat to be able to see all the manufacturer's trailers up close, and see what makes all the trailers unique and special.” - Rebecca “I got a really strong sense of PRT’s solid presence in the industry. Every manufacturer knows who we are, and several took the time to educate our staff on what makes their portable restroom trailers unique and high quality.” – Amy “It is amazing how far the sanitation industry has come. The manufacturers we represent have so many beautiful designs ready to fit every client's needs and wants. I was very impressed with how spacious the designs are.” – Vanessa We are excited to put all of our new knowledge into practice and better serve our customers. We also look forward to attending similar events in the future.

How does providing safe and sanitary bathroom facilities for those working hard to harvest our fruit and veggies effect you and I? Chew on this…without a clean and sanitary place to go to the bathroom and wash their hands, the food that they harvest may be full of bacteria and other hazardous organisms. Here’s a scenario to consider: Imagine that the bathroom facility is a mile away, there’s no vehicle to take you, and you have to go badly, but you don’t want to take that long going all the way to the bathrooms anyway because you have a quota to make and you need to get paid. As a result, you decide to go off to the side to do your business. Were you far enough away that it didn’t affect the soil? How did you wash your hands?It’s possible that soil that has been exposed to defecation or urine can transfer bacteria to the plants. Harmful organisms can also be transferred to the plants by unclean hands. That’s not to say that any time there’s a contamination outbreak that’s the case, but it can happen.The government recognizes this and has produced a Field Sanitation law under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). In addition, some states that have a large farming industry have created Acts that are similar to the government provisions, but are more detailed regulations for the farm owners and managers to follow. Illinois is one of those states. It has issued the Field Sanitation Act, which gives a very clear explanation of how every farm that employs 10 or more workers must provide hygienic bathroom and drinking facilities. It states that they can be permanent structures or portable bathrooms, but they must provide private toilets with toilet paper, clean water and soap for hand washing, as well as a way to adequately dry hands. The conditions of those portable restrooms must be sanitarily maintained, safe, and sufficiently ventilated; no more than ¼ of a mile away from the location of any one worker.It seems that more farming states have caught on to these regulations and are following suit, since more cases of contaminated produce resulting in sick consumers are popping up. Because of this, many farmers are now looking to portable restroom trailers as their facility solution. They are easy to relocate, safe, private, and sanitary. Furthermore, they provide conditions that exceed government standards and won’t break the budget.If you think about it, everything is connected in one way or another. Working conditions affect those who harvest the fields, which effect how clean our food is, which ultimately affects our health. So is it safe to say, “you are what you eat”?
