Restroom trailer
Also called: luxury restroom trailer, mobile restroom, toilet trailer
A restroom trailer is a towable enclosed building with flushing toilets, sinks with running water, mirrors, lighting, climate control and often separate men's and women's sides, used for weddings, corporate events, film sets and long-term office sites. It needs level ground, electrical power and either a water hookup or an onboard fresh water tank.
Trailers are sized by stall count, from two-stall units for small weddings to ten-stall units for large events. A trailer draws power from one or more dedicated circuits or a generator, fills its waste tank from the toilets and sinks, and is pumped by the same vacuum truck that services standard units.
A trailer quote covers delivery, setup and leveling, hookup, an attendant if you want one, and pickup. The rental company needs to know the ground surface, the distance to power and water, the approach path for the tow vehicle and whether the site allows overnight parking.
