Let’s be honest, when you’re in a crowded public place and you pass the restrooms, more often than not you’ll notice a huge line outside the women’s facilities and no line for the men’s. The struggle is real for the female gender. However, what if we reverse the situation and stop into a football tailgating lot? More often than not, you’ll see more men in attendance filling up the restroom queue.


Why is this important? Portable restroom trailers can be designed to address these issues. Rather than laying out a traditional unit with an equal division of men’s and women’s restrooms, they can be reapportioned to be male dominant or female dominant. This is particularly significant for certain types of locations – and something you don’t hear much about in the current buzz of moving to gender-neutral bathrooms.

When people think sporting events, they often think of catering to male fans. However, this isn’t always the case. We recently worked with Boardman High School in Boardman, Ohio to implement a female dominant portable restroom trailer into their football stadium. Surprisingly enough, a lot of sporting locations and manufacturing plants can go either way. Horse race tracks, baseball fields, and football stadiums might require male dominant portable restroom trailers, while swim clubs and tennis clubs might require female dominant units. Heavy manufacturing like energy plants and mining might seek out more male restrooms, while light manufacturing like sewing and packaging might require female.
