Get to know the brand and see why your restroom trailers purchase should be Satellite.   The Satellite Brand   Over 50 years in the making, Satellite Restroom Trailers has a history that doesn’t need much introduction. Their experience in the field has made them one of the most renowned names in the industry, and their designs never fail to impress our customers. Here’s a little background from the company: “Designing and manufacturing a line of restroom trailers has been an exciting process at Satellite.  It was, and continues to be, an opportunity to use the combined experience and knowledge of our portable sanitation and trailer divisions to produce a product worthy of the investment. Satellite began as a portable restroom rental and service company in 1958 and manufactured its own portable restrooms, deodorizers and vacuum trucks.  Producing quality products was critical to the survival and eventual success of the company and it is with this same attitude that Satellite Suites was born. The launch of Satellite Suites restroom trailers in 2014 was a high-point in the history of Satellite.  The many years of advancing portable sanitation with innovation and excellence were evident in the very first trailers. The many advantages of a Satellite Suites trailer can only be appreciated by comparing our models with the competition – item by item, feature by feature.   It is in the details where the quality of a Satellite Suites restroom trailer can be fully seen and appreciated.”   Get to Know Satellite Restroom Trailers   With their extensive background and experience, you can bet that purchasing one of these restroom trailers will get you some serious ban for your buck. We recommend these designs for those who have upscale guests. Event attendees, high-level executives, conference goers, and others who expect a certain level of elegance. A complaint we’ve heard over and over about porta potties and low-quality restroom trailers is that the ugly truth unveils itself and the smell is simply unattractive, no matter how nicely the portable trailer may be designed. One of the key features of a Satellite Restroom Trailer is the polyethylene waste tank.  For a variety of reasons, this material is superior to others when comparing ease-of-cleaning, upkeep and longevity.  In fact, the design of the waste tank has the proven advantage of reducing odors, especially when combined with the use of biodegradable deodorizers developed by the company. In addition to the specially-designed waste tank, Safe-T-Fresh deodorizers, manufactured by Satellite, are complex formulas containing biocides and enzymes specifically suited for this industry and in this case, restroom trailers.  This is where the experience Satellite gained over the years is invaluable to a suites customer. Asiude from all of these necessary features, Satellite goes all out on design. These restroom trailers are impeccably created with designer sinks, ambient lighting, high-end flushable toilets, gorgeous wooden finishes, and more. It’s hard to believe that these models are portable restrooms! Additional innovations include using materials such as aluminum framing, composite sub-layers, and seamless outer layers to prevent costly moisture issues. They also include features like a polyethylene tank to reduce odors. Satellite’s restroom trailers incorporate common sense features and unique durability that insures a solid return on your investment.   Get Your Satellite Trailer   Now that you’ve learned all about the value of Satellite restroom trailers, consider purchasing one for your business.

Product Highlight: The Decon Trailer

Over the years, we have had the privilege of serving a vast variety of unique businesses. In our company journey, we have noticed that as we learn, we grow, and that is often due to our partners. As we meet new people, we realize new trailer needs, and thanks to the construction business, the decon trailer was born. If you are not familiar with the construction business, it’s likely you’ve never heard of this specialty trailer. Even many within the industry are surprised and excited to learn that a product like this is on the market. The decon trailer is revolutionary - it allows workers to get the job done without spreading toxins that are often found in older buildings. We have done our research and found one of the top manufacturers of the decon trailer, and we just stocked up for 2019! Read below to find out more about the decon trailer and why it should be an integral part of your construction business.   WHAT IS A DECON TRAILER   For those working in the construction industry, you’re familiar with the risks that come when working on older buildings. Asbestos, lead, and other toxins are often found, and while these can be contained on a worksite, what happens when your staff leave after a long day of work, covered in potentially harmful soot? In steps the decon trailer. After working on sites where toxins are likely to dwell, this trailer allows workers to rid themselves of harmful layers in a way that is safe for the environment and your employees. Here’s how it works: Step one: after the work day is finished, employees enter the back end of the decon trailer and are able to undress in a private environment. They leave their contaminated work clothes in this private room for proper cleaning. Step two: employees enter the next room, where showers are provided. They are able to wash themselves to ensure that any contaminated soot left on their bodies is properly cleaned off. Step three: the employees then enter the clean room, where lockers with clean clothing and their belongings await. They exit the front end of the decon trailer ready to head home and relax. This concept has allowed workers to get those more toxic jobs done without harming themselves or taking those toxins home to their loved ones. It has changed the construction business, along with other industries that work with potentially contaminated worksites, like the military and homeland security.   WHY IS THE DECON TRAILER NEEDED   Many don’t realize not only how toxic some of these chemicals can be, but also do not know how common they are. When it comes to construction, many buildings that were erected in the mid-1900s and earlier contain one, if not many toxins like asbestos and lead. Today, we are aware that these chemicals should not be used when building new properties, but something must be done about the old ones that need renovations or demolition. Employees who work in construction are trained and ready to take on the task of working in buildings that are contaminated, but it is essential that we protect them and their property. The decon trailer ensures that the job can get done without sacrificing employee health and care. They are able to work in harsh environments, and then make sure that toxins are washed away and not carried into their homes. When working on a potentially harmful worksite, we highly recommend the use of a decon trailer to keep your employees and their homes safe.   NEED A DECON TRAILER?   Now that you know the value of using a decon trailer on toxic worksites, we have options for you to choose from when you’re ready to purchase! For a smaller volume of employees that need access to the decon trailer, consider the 2 Station Decon Trailer. It comes with two private shower stations and can handle a smaller crowd. For larger companies, the 4 Station Decon Trailer is best. With four private shower stalls, it can handle a bigger employee number. Ready to purchase? Get in touch with our sales team. They are ready to assist with questions, thoughts, and needs as your prepare for the arrival of your decon trailer purchase.

Cleaning Up the Dirtiest Jobs with Decon Shower Trailers for Rent

We love supporting the hardworking men and women who make the luxuries of modern life possible. It’s the biggest reason why PRT has become a global leader in providing decon shower trailers for rent.  We know that for every person who is enjoying the amenities of modern life, another person is grinding out long days of dirty work to make it all possible.You’ve probably seen Mike Rowe’s hit television series Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel.  For eight years, he traveled around the world and did his best to walk a mile in the shoes of the people doing the dirtiest work imaginable.  It was fun to watch a rookie attempt so many dirty jobs, and for many of us it was entertaining just to see all the different dirty jobs that people do.But for most workers, dirty jobs aren’t really about entertainment.  They’re about supporting a family and providing life’s necessities to the people they love.  At PRT, we’re passionate about making sure that when these hard workers return to their families and friends at the end of the day – they don’t take that dirty work home with them.  Our decon shower trailers for rent ensure that they return home completely free of the potentially dangerous chemicals and materials they’ve been working with all day long.Specializing in the Biggest, Dirtiest Jobs on EarthThere are some big companies that specialize in doing dirty jobs on a massive industrial scale.  They work on commercial buildings, manufacturing plants, and civil infrastructure projects.  Their work supports our economy, our careers, and our day-to-day life at home.  One of the biggest of these companies recently reached out to PRT to learn more about the details of our decon shower trailers for rent.  We’re proud to say that they liked what they learned, and they decided to partner with PRT to provide safe decontamination of their workforce at the end of every day.This company specializes in civil infrastructure projects, but the scope of their work is wide and their capabilities are impressive.  They do site development projects for governments, businesses, and land developers.  They build bridges, roads, and sewer systems.  And they do it all in compliance with the tight regulations of various government standards.  They are ISO certified for infrastructure construction, and they are LEED certified for materials management.Perhaps the most dangerous work this company does involves demolition, remediation, and waste removal.  They work with older industrial buildings that can contain many different hazardous materials.  During the demolition process, tiny particles of lead, asbestos, and industrial coatings can be released into the air.  This company removes and remediates all hazardous materials, and they have a sterling record of providing a safe and protected working environment for their employees.Decon Shower Trailers for Rent Offer Safe and Compliant Decontamination PRT’s decon shower trailers feature three separate compartments to control the decontamination process for clothing, gear, and people.  The compartments are separated by vinyl airlock curtains, and each has its own independent filtration system.The first compartment is known as the “dirty room.”  When workers enter the dirty room, they remove all contaminated clothing and protective gear.  Airborne particles are removed through an integrated filtration system that captures lead and asbestos particles.  All contaminated gear and clothing is deposited into a negative air chute for safe storage until it can be collected and cleaned.After undressing, workers step forward through the vinyl airlock into the shower room.  The shower room provides full-size private stalls and hot showers for up to four workers at once.  An independent air filtration system captures any remaining airborne particles.  And a water filtration system captures spent water to allow for compliant LEED reporting for wastewater management.When they are finished showering, workers step forward through the next vinyl airlock into the “clean room.”  The clean room is lined with benches and lockers, and provides a place for workers to towel off and change back in to their street clothes, ready to return home to their families with no worries about taking harmful materials home with them.Safety and Comfort, All in OneWith several independent stages of air filtration and water filtration, PRT’s decon shower trailers for rent provide a safe and compliant way to decontaminate your team and their gear for almost any hazardous materials project.  We replace every filter on the trailer for every rental we ship out.  And your workers will love the clean and comfortable experience that our trailers provide.Each decon shower trailer we ship comes standard with on demand hot water heaters.  There is a 5600 BTU heat system onboard, so the internal air is comfortable no matter how cold it is outside.  An optional upgrade to a stronger heating package is available for projects in extreme climates.  And during the heat of summer your workers will appreciate the 13,500 BTU roof-mounted air conditioning system, which keeps the entire trailer at a comfortable cool temperature all day long.A washer and dryer connection are included for on-site laundering of contaminated clothing.  And a utility sink is accessible from the trailer’s exterior to clean off tools and gear.  No detail has been overlooked on our decon shower trailers for rent.  These are the perfect units for industrial and infrastructure jobs, demolition and abatement, recycling and waste management, and much more.  If you’d like to learn more about our extensive line of decontamination trailers, get in touch with PRT today at (877) 600-8645.

A Shower Trailer Rental for a Leader in Specialty Materials Recycling

In America, the recycling business is a huge industry.  These companies do work that is critical to our society’s sustainability, and PRT we are proud to help them out by providing a shower trailer rental whenever one is needed. Since its inception, the recycling industry has recovered more than 66 million tons of material that would otherwise be added to our nation’s landfills.  And with more than 50% of Americans having access to curbside recycling in 2018, the industry continues to expand – improving on existing recycling processes and consistently identifying new materials that can be salvaged. While most of the materials that are recycled every year are plastic and paper products; the recycling of specialty materials is equally important.  A huge number of specialty materials are used in electronics and industrial components – and dedicated recycling procedures are being developed for many of those specialty materials.  We recently helped a leader in the industry who has become one of the world’s premier providers of recycling services for cobalt and nickel. They needed help keeping their workers safe and healthy – and we were more than happy to help them with their important work. Recycling Specialty Materials in America’s Heartland Cobalt mines have attracted a lot of attention in the press over the past few years – including scrutiny of the health risks and working conditions faced by cobalt miners around the world.  But cobalt is an essential component in many of the most common and popular rechargeable batteries – including lithium-ion and nickel-metal hydride. These are the batteries that power our smartphones, laptops, electric cars, and more. Our client developed a proprietary process that has had quite an impact on the markets for cobalt and nickel.  The process allows them to recycle used lithium and nickel batteries, capture the cobalt and nickel, and refine those specialty materials to be used again in other products.  This process keeps these rare and valuable elements out of landfills, and relieves pressure on the cobalt supply chain and its mining operations. Salvaged cobalt and nickel can be used in a wide spectrum of applications.  Altogether the recycling process yields more than 360 different chemical products.  Some of the recovered materials are sold back to rechargeable battery manufacturers.  Other chemicals from the recycling process are useful for dying ceramics, fertilizing farm crops, making hard-metal cutting tools, and much more. The process our client developed has a positive impact on the markets for cobalt and nickel at every stage of the supply chain.  So, we were happy to help keep their operation running smoothly by providing them with a shower trailer rental when they contacted us recently to find a temporary shower solution for their employees. Shower Trailer Rental for an Industrial Recycling Plant When the recycling plant reached out to us, they needed to find a way to provide comfortable and sanitary showers for their workers to get clean before returning home at the end of their daily shifts.  After discussing their requirements for capacity, the space they had available, and their access to utility services – we found a great match for their application with an 8-stall commercial grade shower trailer rental. The unit we provided has 2 4-stall suites, which makes it easily convertible between one women’s suite and one men’s suite – or two men’s suites if the women’s suite is not in use.  The entire trailer is constructed with commercial grade materials that easily stand up to the rugged conditions of crews working with industrial materials. Each 4-stall suite features a central vanity with double bowl sinks in a solid surface countertop, two toilet stalls with locking privacy doors, and a roomy common area.  The four shower stalls are made with a tough and durable one-piece acrylic mold, and each stall includes its own private changing area. Climate control options are available, and our client chose a model with central air conditioning and electric heat strips – creating a comfortable setting for their workers in every season for the duration of their long-term rental agreement. Learn More About PRT’s Great Shower Trailer Rental Options We were thrilled to learn that the shower trailer rental we provided was a good fit at the recycling plant.  And we were even happier when the plant’s management contacted us recently to extend their contract for a second term.  Repeat customers are the cornerstone of our success here at PRT, and each time a client returns to us we see it as a return on our commitment to excellence in customer service. If your company is looking for a short-term solution for a shower trailer rental – or a full-blown decontamination trailer for hazardous material projects – get in touch with PRT today at (877) 600-8645.  We’ll provide the guidance you need to find the best unit to meet your needs with financing that works within your existing budget.

A Luxury Portable Bathroom for Extremely Cold Climates

At Portable Restroom Trailers (PRT), we have to be prepared to provide a luxury portable bathroom for any climate in the world.  Our clientele ranges from warm tropical islands to remote arctic villages, and our inventory reflects their needs with a wide variety of climate control configurations to match any requirement.We recently helped an upstart rental company in Canada to expand their service offerings by acquiring a luxury portable bathroom for weddings, parties, and corporate events.  Because of their location, they needed a unit with a powerful climate control setup so that they could keep it rented out for as much of the year as possible.The company didn’t have capital set aside for new equipment purchases in their operating budget, but we were able to match them up with a demo unit from our display lot at a significant discount – and they took advantage of our popular lease-to-own program to make the numbers work.  At first, they were a little concerned about how comfortable the bathroom would be in cold winter weather; but they quickly came around when they saw all the climate control options that PRT offers.Three Levels of Insulation and Control for Cold Climates Almost every luxury portable bathroom in PRT’s inventory comes standard with a base HVAC system that includes integrated duct-work, a roof-mounted air conditioner and electric heat strips.  The standard heat strips are low-profile electrical heat sources that are integrated into the trailer’s trim and produce 5600 BTU per unit. Our standard units remain warm and comfortable all the way down into the mid-30s; but a few upgrades are available that can keep your luxury portable bathroom warm and welcoming even in freezing temperatures.Our 3 season package features upgraded insulation in all walls and ceilings.  Additional heat is provided by a 750-watt electric heater in each suite – with upgraded 30-amp marine-style power cords to withstand harsh weather outside.  The waste tank is fitted with an electric DE-icing system to prevent freezing. With the 3-season package installed, our units are rated down to 30 degrees Fahrenheit.For even colder climates, we offer a 4-season Arctic package with more insulation, tougher components, and a ducted central furnace.  The 4-season upgrade uses R13 spray insulation in the sub-floor, R14 insulation in the walls and ceilings, and the entire exterior of the unit is wrapped in insulating foil before the metal walls are installed.  A ducted 40k BTU furnace is powered by dual 30lb liquid propane tanks. The waste tank has an electric DE-icing system, and 50 feet of electrically heated water hose are included for the external water supply.Some heat packages require access to multiple electrical outlets.  All our trailers will maintain warmer temperatures with less energy if you skirt the unit to the ground with weather-resistant materials during winter months.  Ask your PRT representative for more details.A Compact Luxury Portable Bathroom for Cold Climate Events The unit that our Canadian client selected is a compact but luxurious 2-station trailer from our Comfort Series.  This unit packs a ton of functionality and luxury into an exceptionally small footprint at only 12 feet in overall length.  Both suites have a private fold-down stairway with an oversized landing, double safety handrails, and abundant LED porch lighting.  But you don’t see the real luxury of this unit until you open the door and step inside.The bathroom’s interior is comfortable and relaxing, with a coordinated design that features earth-tone colors and high-quality components.  The vanities feature solid surface countertops with metered hot water faucets, in-counter wastebaskets, and large shatterproof glass mirrors.  The walls are made of a durable fiberglass material; and the floors are made with a single sheet of low-maintenance vinyl with a designer finish.  Our Comfort Series luxury portable bathrooms provide all the comfort and functionality you would expect from a permanent bathroom – at a fraction of the cost, in a compact and mobile package.Our Canadian client went with the 4-season package, so the unit we delivered has maximum insulation for efficiency and consistency in any weather.  The unit has heat strips and a central furnace – and the temperature is controlled via a simple thermostat in the unit’s mechanical room. Combining rugged durability in cold climates with a comfortable luxurious experience – this unit was a perfect fit for year-round event rentals in Canada.Find Your Own Luxury Portable Bathroom Today PRT stocks a wide-ranging inventory of luxury portable bathrooms.  We have single-stall units, all the way up to 20-stalls and more.  And our inventory runs the gamut from rugged durability to the finest high-end luxury.  We have restrooms, shower trailers, laundry trailers, decontamination trailers, and much more.If you’d like to learn more about our selection of luxury portable bathrooms, get in touch with us today at (877) 600-8645.  We have plenty of financing options to choose from – from easy approval credit to our popular lease-to-own program.
