Shower Trailers and Other Specialties

Gypsum is one of the most commonly used modern building materials.  This ancient mineral is used in a myriad of products including plaster, drywall, mortar, building blocks and more.  It also has several uses outside of the construction industry – especially in agriculture. But while this material has an amazing number of useful properties, it is also amazingly hard to come by.  There is a finite supply of gypsum in the world, and mining it can be tough and dangerous work.In the United States, OSHA maintains a set of regulatory exposure limits on gypsum, which can be harmful if overexposed to people’s skin, eyes, or respiratory systems.  Companies that mine or process gypsum follow careful safety procedures to ensure the safety of their workforce's. For those companies, shower trailer rentals are a key part of their safety programs.We recently partnered with one of the largest gypsum processors in the country to provide long-term shower trailer rentals to keep their operation running smoothly during a change in their production operation.  This is only the latest success story from our work with America’s mining and milling industries, but we think it’s a great example of how our long-term shower trailer rentals can help a company keep their workers safe.Iowa’s Ancient Stores of Sea Salt Many people don’t understand exactly what gypsum is, and are surprised to learn that it is essentially ancient sea salt.  Gypsum deposits occur all around the globe – anywhere salt lakes, seas, or hot springs once existed but have since evaporated.  And while you probably don’t associate Iowa with salt water – much of the state was actually underwater during the Jurassic period.When those ancient waters evaporated, huge deposits of gypsum salt were left behind.  And today, after more than a century of mining, there are still more than 15 square miles of gypsum in a vast deposit around Fort Dodge, Iowa.  This gypsum is some of the purest in the world, and it is preferred by some of the most recognizable names in modern construction materials today.There are only three companies who operate active gypsum mining operations in Fort Dodge.  There are several more companies who run gypsum processing plants to transform the raw material into its usable form – some of those companies process gypsum for market, and others process it as a component for their own end products.  All of them must abide by OSHA’s regulations regarding exposure to gypsum in the workplace – and most of them provide shower trailer rentals for their workers to clean themselves off before heading home at the end of a shift.Shower Trailer Rentals for the Dirtiest of Dirty Jobs When we started talking with our new client from Iowa, their primary concern was about the durability and toughness of the trailer they were looking for.  They needed a unit that could stand up to the dust and grit of their gypsum operation – shift after shift, and day after day. We assured them that there were some great options in our inventory of long-term shower trailer rentals, and then we helped guide them through a series of choices to find a perfect match.The unit that we finally arrived at is a 3-station shower trailer rentals from our Comfort Series line.  It has three private suites, each with its own locking exterior doorway. Inside each of the unisex stalls is a full-size shower stall, a private dressing area, an authentic flush-able china toilet, and a corner vanity with an automatic metered sink.  Air conditioning, heating, and tank-less instant hot water are standard. It has everything a worker needs to get clean and comfortable after a long shift – and it’s built with the toughest components available on the marketplace.The interior of each suite is constructed with seamless white fiberglass walls and one-piece non-skid rubber floors – minimizing the unit’s exposure to fine particles of dust and debris over time, and also making cleanup fast and easy.  With an oversized 400-gallon waste tank, these showers can accommodate approximately 1,800 uses in between maintenance.They’re ideal for dirty jobs and remote worksites.  And with four-season climate control, they are the perfect long-term shower trailer rentals for any environment – including the cold winters of Fort Dodge, IA.Learn More About PRT Long-Term Rental Program Our inventory of shower trailer rentals runs all the way from single-stall units all the way up to 20+ stalls for high-capacity applications.  And we have something to fit every situation – whether you’re looking for industrial-grade toughness or an executive level of luxury and comfort.Our long-term shower trailer rentals are a popular option for companies who need to keep their operation running smoothly while they wait for a permanent solution.  But we also offer short-term rental contracts for one-time jobs and special events.

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.

Sometimes you need to provide the comfort and privacy of a hot shower at home out on a remote worksite.  Our 8-station portable shower trailer does just that, with all the features you would expect at home – conveniently packaged for remote mobility. When Alaska’s lumberjacks call it a day, they look to PRT to provide clean and comfortable showers with the comforts of home – while standing up to the harsh conditions of life on a lumber camp. A Portable Shower Trailer that Feels Like Home When you walk in the door of a PRT shower trailer, you always find a clean and welcoming interior.  Our trailers pack all the amenities of a home shower into a small footprint – without ever feeling cramped for space. Our 8-station shower trailer is divided into 2 suites, each with 4 private shower stalls.  The suite is divided by a wrap-around vanity with twin sinks, each with its own framed glass mirror.  Behind the locking privacy door that separates each stall, you’ll find a private changing area and a full-size shower stall. A tankless instant hot water system ensures that hot water is always ready when it’s needed – which is especially important when a work crew returns to camp together at the end of the day.  Regardless of the temperature outside, the air inside is always just right thanks to our year-round climate control system. Rugged Shower Trailers for Harsh Applications With remote locations and hard-working crews, lumber camps can take quite a toll on a portable shower.  While our trailers are known for their luxurious comfort – they are also the most rugged and durable units on the market today. A heavy-duty I-beam frame supports the steel structural beams (heavy aluminum is available as an upgrade).  The exterior is constructed of dent-resistant, seamless fiberglass.  The roof is a single piece of all-weather membrane that comes with a 12-year warranty. The materials used inside a PRT shower trailer are just as durable as those used on the exterior.  The floor of each suite is a single piece of rolled non-skid rubber flooring.  The walls are constructed of mar-resistant laminate with durable metal trim.  Both suites are trimmed with commercial-grade rubber base board throughout. The components and construction of our shower trailers are designed to ensure a long life with minimal maintenance.  They’re perfect for tough working crews and tough remote locations. Find Financing Options that Work for You We offer shower trailers for rent, and we sell shower trailers to fleets around the world who rent them out to their local clientele.  One thing we’ve learned through our work with the Alaskan timber industry is that rental rates in remote locations can quickly become exorbitant. Depending on the location and the availability of rental units, it often makes more sense to purchase a trailer rather than rent for even a few months.  We have an extensive inventory of new and used units and a variety of financing options that allow us to find a solution that works within nearly any budget. If you’re looking for a durable shower trailer for a remote worksite, contact our customer satisfaction team today to discuss your requirements.  Between our long-term rentals and our lease-to-own program, we can deliver the perfect portable shower unit to suit your needs. To get started, call us at 1-866-221-6306.  

It’s been almost two months since our home state started making national news – and the controversy over transgender bathrooms and LGBT rights is only continuing to heat up. On February 22, 2016, Charlotte, NC passed a city-wide ordinance expanding the state’s anti-discrimination laws so that LGBT persons would also be granted protection in places of “public accommodation.” As a direct response, North Carolina’s General Assembly proposed and passed House Bill 2 (HB2) shortly thereafter. Now known as the “bathroom bill,” HB2 repealed Charlotte’s local ordinance which would have allowed transgender people to use the bathroom of the gender they identify as. Instead, it made HB2 the final word on North Carolina law -overriding cities and local governments- and restricted protection from discrimination solely based on “race, religion, national origin, color, age, biological sex, and handicaps.”Needless to say, North Carolina and its Governor, Pat McCory, have been in the national spotlight ever since, sparking intense debate over LGBT rights versus the safety and privacy of others in public restrooms. One side is arguing for full inclusion, promoting that men should be able to use women’s restrooms and vice versa if that’s how they internally identify. Others believe this opens up a host of safety issues and privacy concerns for vulnerable citizens like women and children, who may be taken advantage of by predators and other offenders. Hoping to bring both sides together, Portable Restroom Trailers, LLC has spent the last few weeks educating clients and consumers on unisex bathroom and unisex shower trailer units. We have also been increasing in-stock unisex restroom inventory, while ordering/delivering custom units in the meantime.View our unisex bathroom and shower trailer inventory here. >>“It’s amazing to see how much controversy our state has sparked,” says Portable Restroom Trailers, LLC’s Operations Manager, Teri Pahon. “While much of the media coverage has been focused on Charlotte’s local ordinance and North Carolina’s response, this is a conversation that’s occurring in cities around the country; we hear it every day from customers. How do we allow transgender people to use public facilities, while maintaining a safe environment for women and children? To be honest, it’s a simple answer−and we want to make sure municipalities, venue locations, and other organizations know about the options available to them. We have a wide selection of unisex bathroom and shower trailer units that feature private stalls for men, women, or transgender persons. They can be used as a permanent solution or a temporary facility and they are truly the most cost effective way to appease both sides of the debate while offering clean, sanitary facilities to all. We are working hard to get the word out and foster a conversation that educates people there is already a solution available that bridges the gap.”We will continue to stay on top of the latest news and information coming out on this topic.
