What Are Construction Restroom Trailers?

Construction restroom trailers are highly mobile, durable, and comfortable hygienic bathroom solutions for remote work sites with extended durations and challenging conditions. Due to changing OSHA requirements and other considerations for improving worker morale and retention rate, restroom trailers are quickly replacing outdated and unhygienic portable toilets at construction sites. With a versatile range of sizes, available stations, and added amenities to provide comfort in all conditions, Lang Specialty Trailers is a leading option for site managers and contractors looking to improve working conditions on long-term projects without ready access to permanent restroom facilities. 

Why Use Restroom Trailers for Construction Sites & Not Porta-Potties?

When it comes to the functional advantages of Lang Specialty Trailers' ECO and PRO-Series restroom trailers, there is a seemingly endless list of benefits to experience by making the switch away from traditional options. At the end of the day, more hygienic restroom solutions for construction sites lead to improved morale, higher employee retention, and avoid any possible OSHA citations, along with the following benefits.

Improved Hygiene vs. Porta Potties

One of the most noticeable advantages of a premium construction site restroom trailer is the improved sanitation. Instead of relying on chemical waste tanks and routine clean-outs, Lang Specialty Trailers' restroom trailers offer flushing toilets, clean running water, and a far easier-to-maintain interior. Additional hygiene boosting features include:

• Pedal-flush toilets
• Sinks with metered faucets to manage water usage
• Waterless urinals
• Large capacity fresh water and waste tanks

Built to Endure Rugged Construction Site Conditions

Durability is a major concern for contractors and site managers seeking a restroom trailer solution. Considering many of these projects have an undetermined length, it’s important to find a trailer that can withstand various weather conditions and consistent use on a jobsite. Lang Specialty Trailers are all built with the following longevity-enhancing features:

• Rugged steel structural frames
• Gel-coated fiberglass interior/exterior for easy maintenance
• One-piece vinyl flooring
• Aluminum diamond plate trim

Expedited Setup Times on Active Job Sites

Whether this means moving a construction restroom trailer across a job site or moving it to an entirely new location, setup time and mobility are huge considerations for site managers. Our construction site solutions are designed with setup times in mind and include the following features:

• Self-leveling slide-out stairs
• Fold-out handrails for safety
• Stabilizer jacks for uneven surfaces
• Fresh water tanks with built-in city/municipal water connection ports

Best Construction Restroom Trailer for Your Project

Lang Specialty Trailers has decades of experience refining trailer designs to meet the needs of modern construction sites and has applied that knowledge to several versatile configurations. When working with customers in this field, our sales team reports that three factors stand out as primary considerations when choosing among available options: crew size, project duration, and jobsite logistics. 

Factor One - Construction Crew Size

The number of workers at any given job site easily determines the appropriate number of individual stations and gendered stations to include in a construction restroom purchase. 

• Small crews of 4-10 people can use a 2-Station PRO Series Trailer.
• Medium-sized crews between 20 and 60 will need one or more mid-size trailers to handle the usage rate, while still providing exceptional maneuverability.
• Large construction crews or multi-shift jobs often require the largest PRO Series Trailers with 9 stations and sometimes include a small unit as well. 

Factor Two - Project Duration

It goes without saying that long-term jobs will require trailers with more expansive fresh water and waste tanks to avoid constantly emptying and refilling. Using restroom trailers on long-term projects improves worker convenience and requires less service than porta-potties. Crew size, combined with project duration, can sway the decision on which trailer is best suited, but our experienced sales team can help navigate the logistics and help set your team up for success, no matter the project size or length. 

Factor Three - Jobsite Logistics (Size, Location, Climate)

Everything from job site size, location, and climate conditions during the project duration can impact which restroom trailer is best suited for your construction project. To address these concerns, our trailers include available climate control solutions to provide cooling A/C in hot conditions and heat for those colder fall or winter months. Recently added to the product catalog is the Sentry Series 2-Station Crane Hoistable restroom trailer, designed to provide bathroom access to workers at the top floors of a building. 

With a diverse set of configurations, Lang Specialty Trailers has nimble small trailers for tight staging areas in urban or residential construction projects or large trailers to help support extended deployments in remote locations.
