Diversity is what makes America so beautiful. Everywhere you go, you see different people of different backgrounds achieving their version of the American Dream. They start businesses and organizations that help their communities thrive and it is an honor to work with them when they need portable restroom rentals.
It is our goal to support every business and organization no matter their background, so when the Lake Geneva Foundation came to us needing portable restroom rentals for their youth camps, we were happy to assist.
Learn a little bit about Lake Geneva:
“Lake Geneva Youth Camp & Conference Center and Conference Point Center exist to provide a place set apart for campers and guests to have life-changing experiences. We operate throughout the year serving over 28,000 young people, families and adults annually, supported by a volunteer staff of over 400 dedicated individuals. Our camp programs serve individual families, and our conference centers serve church and church-affiliated ministries.
Our carefully selected and trained staff desire to give campers and guests the time of their lives in a safe, nurturing environment. It is a place surrounded by God’s beautiful creation, filled with intense fun, and packed with real life experiences, challenges and relationships that draw people closer to God. Lifelong friendships are developed. New skills areas are learned. Memories that last a lifetime are made. And first and foremost, the deeds and words of Jesus Christ are taught in relevant ways that will impact lives. We strive for excellence in all we do, and endeavor to give the honor and glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
The Foundation sees a variety of youth at their camps each year and they wanted to prioritize accessibility for those with disabilities. We had a variety of portable restroom rentals that could assist them.
Accessibility with Portable Restroom Rentals
After hearing about the need for accessible restrooms at Lake Geneva, we were ready to show them a variety of ADA-compliant portable restroom rentals. They needed something that could handle a medium volume of use each day and also had standard suites for use. After weighing options, the organization settled on the ADA +2 Station Marina Series.
This is one of our ADA portable restroom rentals that comes with one ADA-compliant suite and two additional unisex suites. Our ADA restroom rentals are special in that with a touch of a button, the unit lowers completely to the ground, allowing for easy access and a ramp with a shorter footprint. Inside of the unit, visitors will find enough room for a full 360 degree turn in a wheelchair. The suite also includes an ADA-compliant shower, grab rails for safety, and an accessible suite.
The unisex suites of our ADA portable bathrooms for rent are equipped with a flushable toilet, shatterproof mirror, and sink vanity. We take pride in our interior design, using tasteful colors, designer floors and decor to ensure that users have an elevated experience. Each unit also includes a shower stall with non-slip flooring.
The entire portable restroom rental has insulated walls and ceiling to maintain a comfortable interior temperature. Additionally, to aid in climate control, the unit is equipped with air conditioning and heat strips, ensuring that the temperature stays comfortable no matter what outdoor weather is like.
The exterior of all our portable restroom rentals are built to last with dent-preventing material. We ensure that safe access into this ADA restroom trailer is a priority with ample porch lighting and sturdy, aluminum steps and rails. The design is sleek and fits in with any atmosphere, from grassroots to upscale.
As we continue to partner with new businesses, we want to highlight the value of using portable restroom rentals with the Smarter Restrooms App feature. Read ahead to discover three key upgrades that the app provides.
- Receive Timely Notifications
Each portable bathroom trailer unit comes with water saving flushable toilets, running water from sinks, and sometimes, showers and other amenities. This means that fresh water tank and waste tank levels require careful monitoring.
No need to do this math on your own any longer! The Smarter Restroom App sends the fleet managers alert notifications when waste and freshwater tank levels are 2⁄3 full or empty, causing the unit to be out of service shortly. This is sure to boost productivity, allowing your team to have easy access to the information they need to keep restroom rentals operating smoothly.
- All-In-One Control System
Nothing is more important than the experience of your guests. We want to ensure that every user has a comfortable experience in a climate-controlled unit with all the amenities of a brick-and-mortar restroom. This is an easy achievement with the app’s system operations control feature.
The app detects and controls shore power, interior climate temperatures, and up-to-date weather conditions, giving units winter protection from freezing temperatures and keeping things cool when hot. This ensures that restroom fleet managers stay updated from a remote location - they’ll know what changes are needed to the unit and when, which allows for a consistently pleasant restroom experience for guests.
The app also allows for geometric locating, allowing managers to see the exact locations of all portable bathroom trailers at all times.
- Offsite Unit Management
The most tasking part of operating a portable bathroom trailer fleet is basic management. Making the trip back and forth to one or many units takes up valuable time, which can lower efficient customer service. The app addresses this issue as well.
Managers have capabilities to remotely control lights, air conditioning, heating, water heaters, and trailer power. This means managers can operate more restroom trailers off-site, expand their operations, and provide superior service.
Overall, the Smarter Restrooms App was developed to allow businesses who use or own restroom rentals to manage them more effectively. The app allows the management team to get more done in less time, makes fleet operations easier in general, and saves valuable employee time. Now, with the app, portable bathroom trailer owners can ensure that restroom visitors have a top-notch experience with less manual labor.

Winterize Your Portable Bathroom Rentals
For those who experience extreme weather conditions, we know how hard it can get to maintain your restroom trailer. Maintenance issues are bound to arise: what if your water freezes? What if the hose gets clogged by ice? How do you keep your 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).
CREATE A BOX
- 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.
AFTER PLYWOOD IS ATTACHED
- 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.
FOR UNITS NOT IN USE FOR THE 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!
