Restrooms That Stay Put
Welded steel restroom buildings from 10 to 40 feet — ADA-compliant configurations, exterior handwash stations, and freeze protection for year-round use. Built for public abuse, delivered ready to set.
Container Restroom vs. Restroom Trailer
Most buyers pricing a permanent public restroom start with trailers, because that's what the rental industry sells. A trailer is the right tool for a weekend. It's the wrong tool when the restroom is staying for ten years.
| RADCON Container Restroom | Restroom Trailer | |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Welded steel, built indoors | Fiberglass shell on a towable chassis |
| Vandalism & break-ins | Steel walls, steel doors, lever locks | Fiberglass panels, lighter hardware |
| Can it be towed off your site | No wheels — lifts with a forklift or crane | Yes, by anyone with a hitch |
| Wear items | None rolling — no tires, axles, or hitch | Tires, axles, and fiberglass all wear |
| ADA | ADA-compliant configuration available | Available from some manufacturers |
| Cold weather | Freeze protection, year-round operation | Often winterized and taken out of service |
| Appearance | Paint or full graphic wrap to your branding | White box, limited finish options |
| Expected service life | 10 years in public use | Varies with towing and exposure |
| Best use | Permanent or seasonal installation | Short-term events and rentals |
Where a trailer still wins: if you need to move the restroom every week, buy the trailer. We'd rather say that than sell you the wrong thing.
Talk Through Your SiteEverything the Public Touches,
Built to Be Abused
Public restrooms fail at the doors, the fixtures, and the plumbing — usually in that order. We build all three heavier than they need to be, because a restroom that's out of service isn't a restroom.
- Independent stalls, each with its own lockable steel door
- ADA-compliant configuration available
- Stainless-lined interior walls — nothing to punch through or peel
- Grab bars and non-slip flooring
- Exterior stainless handwash station with two basins
- Interior LED lighting
- Rooftop climate control
- Freeze protection for year-round operation
- Municipal water connection or onboard fresh tank
- Sewer connection or holding tank
- Forklift pockets in the base for placement and relocation
- Paint or full graphic wrap to your specification
The Details That Decide It
The handwash station is mounted through the exterior wall so it can be used without entering the building — which keeps queues moving at a trailhead or a festival, and keeps the sinks out of reach of whatever is happening inside.
Inside, the walls are lined in stainless rather than finished like a bathroom at home. There is no drywall to punch through, no tile to crack, and no laminate to peel. It hoses out.

Anywhere People Gather
and There's Nowhere to Go
Parks & Municipalities
Trailheads, ballfields, downtown districts, and public plazas — ADA-compliant and wrapped to city branding.
Campgrounds & RV Parks
Add capacity at the far loop without trenching a new bathhouse. Pairs with a SAFETAINER shelter on the same pad.
Events & Venues
Fairgrounds, festival grounds, and athletic complexes that need permanent facilities instead of a weekend rental.
Job Sites & Industrial
Long-duration projects and remote facilities where a portable toilet is not an acceptable answer.
A Free Public Restroom,
Downtown, Unattended
A RADCON container restroom installed as a free public facility in a downtown district — finished in a commissioned mural, with the exterior handwash station facing the sidewalk so it can be used without entering the building.
It's the argument for steel in one photograph: a public restroom on a public street, unattended, in a city center, in service.
Discuss a Public InstallationNo Water, No Sewer,
No Problem
If your site has no utilities at all, the container restroom isn't the answer — the Power Flush is. Self-contained vacumacerator system, 250 gallons fresh, 350 gallons black, internally heated for winter operation.
See the Power Flush →What People Ask First
Is an ADA-accessible stall available?
Yes. We build ADA-compliant configurations, which is usually a requirement for municipal, park, and public-facing installations — and a common reason buyers rule out other options.
Can it be used year-round in a cold climate?
Yes. Units are built with freeze protection for year-round operation, including winter service in northern climates. It does not get pulled off site in October.
Can it connect to city water and sewer?
Yes — and it doesn't have to. Water can come from a municipal connection or an onboard fresh tank, and waste can run to a sewer connection or a holding tank. We build to whatever the site actually has.
What sizes do you build?
Anywhere from 10 to 40 feet, depending on stall count and how much space the site allows.
How long will it last?
Built for a 10-year service life in public use — no tires, no axles, no hitch, and nothing fiberglass in the structure.
Can we paint or wrap it to match our branding?
Yes. Units are finished in your colors, and full graphic wraps are supported — including commissioned artwork, as in the downtown installation above.
How is it delivered and set?
Delivered by truck and placed with a forklift or crane using the pockets in the base. It sets on a pad or compacted base rather than blocked up on tires.
