What is inside the restroom trailer?

The restroom trailer has two private rooms, one for men and one for women. Each room has a porcelain flushing toilet, a vanity sink with running water, a mirror and LED lighting. Climate control keeps the restroom trailer warm on a cool fall night and cool in July. Guests climb steps with a handrail.

Guests walk in and find something close to a home bathroom. That changes how a backyard wedding or an anniversary party feels.

The trailer is the step up from a single VIP luxury restroom when the crowd is bigger.

What does a restroom trailer need on site?

A restroom trailer needs three things on site: level, firm ground, a dedicated 110V/20A outlet within about 50 feet, and a garden-hose water hookup. Without a hose, the restroom trailer's fresh tank can be filled on request. The trailer is about 12 to 16 feet long and needs truck access to back it in.

"Dedicated" means nothing else big runs on that circuit, so do not share it with the caterer's warmers or the DJ. Sizes are approximate.

Checking a date for your wedding?

Call Shawn with the date and the venue address. He will tell you if a trailer is free and if the site works.

Will a restroom trailer fit in my driveway or yard?

A restroom trailer fits most Erie driveways and firm, level lawns, as long as the truck can back the 12 to 16 foot trailer into place. A restroom trailer cannot go through a backyard gate or across soft, wet grass. Watch for low branches, wires, septic lines and sprinkler heads along the path.

Shawn will ask about septic tanks, sprinkler heads and buried lines before delivery day. A texted photo of the spot and the approach helps him plan.

Normal truck ruts on a soft lawn are not covered, so pick the firmest route. After a wet week, a driveway spot is the safer choice.

A restroom trailer rental in Erie starts at $1,295 for a weekend. That price includes delivery, setup, hookup and pickup in the Erie core zone. The restroom trailer arrives clean and stocked with paper, soap and towels. Pennsylvania's 6% sales tax is added, and the full amount is paid at booking.

How far ahead should I book a restroom trailer?

Book a restroom trailer at least 2 weeks ahead. For June, September and October wedding weekends, book as soon as you have the date, since each trailer serves only one event per weekend. Standard porta potties can come same-day, but a restroom trailer cannot.

  1. Hold the date

    Call with the date, the address and the guest count. Shawn checks the site needs on that call.

  2. Mark the spot

    Pick level ground near an outlet and a spigot. Text a photo with the spot and the truck path.

  3. Delivery and setup

    Weekend events get the trailer Friday. The crew levels the trailer, hooks up power and water, and checks every fixture.

  4. Pickup

    The trailer is picked up the next business day, usually Monday. You do not need to be home.

Restroom trailer or deluxe flushing porta potties?

A restroom trailer gives about 100 guests two private rooms with running water, light and climate control, but it needs power, a hose and level ground. Deluxe flushing porta potties need no hookups and go almost anywhere, but each flush tank lasts only 50 to 75 flushes. Formal evening weddings lean toward the restroom trailer.

A 150-guest wedding with a bar over 6 hours needs about 7 units. One restroom trailer plus 3 standard units covers the same crowd. Run your own numbers in the porta potty calculator.

When is a restroom trailer the wrong choice?

A restroom trailer is the wrong choice when the site has no outlet or hose nearby, no level spot the truck can reach, or only a few days of notice. A restroom trailer also has steps, so guests in wheelchairs cannot use it. Add a wheelchair-accessible unit beside the trailer for any public or family event.

Restroom trailer rental questions

These answers cover what couples and hosts ask before booking a restroom trailer in Erie: stalls, hookups, guest counts, delivery days, cancellation and cost. Each answer gives the short version first. For a wedding date more than a few weeks out, call Shawn early and hold the trailer before the summer rush.

Does 2-station mean two stalls for men and two for women?

A 2-station trailer has one room for men and one room for women. Each room has its own door, porcelain toilet and vanity sink.

Does the trailer have running water to wash hands?

Each room has a vanity sink with running water. The water comes from your garden hose, or from the trailer's fresh tank when we fill it on request.

How many restroom trailers do I need for 150 guests?

One 2-station trailer serves about 100 guests over a 5-hour evening event. For 150 guests with a bar, pair one trailer with 3 standard units, or ask Shawn about a second trailer.

Can you set up a restroom trailer for a wedding at our home?

Home weddings are a common setup. The trailer needs level ground the truck can reach, a dedicated outlet within 50 feet and a garden hose. Send a photo of the yard and Shawn will confirm the spot.

Why does a restroom trailer cost so much more than a porta potty?

A restroom trailer is two finished bathrooms on wheels, with heat, AC, lights and running water. Setup takes a crew, power and water hookups, and the trailer is tied up for the whole weekend. The $1,295 starting price includes delivery, setup and pickup.

What if we need to cancel?

Cancelling a restroom trailer is free up to 7 days before delivery. After that, 50% of the rental is charged. Moving the date is free with 24 hours notice, if a trailer is open on the new date.
