Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How are restroom trailers different from porta potties?
A: There are vast differences between The Water Closet trailers and porta potties. A porta potty is basically a plastic box for mobility, while our restrooms are designed to be aesthetically pleasing, clean and comfortable. Porta potties have toilets with visible, odorous, open-air waste tanks. By contrast, our trailers have flushable toilets with running water that drain into an enclosed waste tank similar to home. Our restrooms are climate controlled which aids in comfort and odor control; porta potties do not have this option. Most importantly, porta potties are often unsanitary; The Water Closet toilet trailers are not only highly sanitary, but provide electrical amenities and hot & cold running water which is important for personal grooming and hygiene.
