The preferred name for portable shower trailer rentals across Tracy
Our trailers sit staged around Northern California, not two states away, so a shelter manager who calls in the morning can have hot showers running by that evening. Short-notice orders are routine for us, from fire evacuations to a crew schedule that moved up a week. That works because we own the fleet, more than 250 units that make up the largest luxury trailer fleet in the Western U.S., and no broker sits between your call and the truck. We bring 30+ years in event and equipment rental and eight years of California hot-water shower trailer rentals on real work sites. Call us or request a quote, and the person who answers can tell you what is ready to roll today. For decon and emergency rinse setups, see our post on safety shower trailer rentals.
We own the trucks and trailers
We are a direct fleet owner, not a reseller, so the people who answer your call are the people who plan the truck. We can tell you right away what is ready and when it can roll.
Rooms people actually use
Each room has a locking door, a light, a mirror and a gel-coated fiberglass shell. People use a clean, private room like that without being told.
Built around your shift sheet
We plan rooms from your shift times and how fast the line needs to clear, not just from head count. That keeps the evening wave moving.
We plan for valley heat and wind
Afternoons in Tracy can run past 100 degrees, and the wind off Altamont Pass is strong. We face doors out of the wind, run the AC through the day and check the heater and tanks on every visit.
“Perfect option for your outdoor events. Clean and spacious with amenities that you would expect at home.”
“Clean. Convenient. Affordable! Highly recommend & customer care is top tier (:”
“Totally recommend there service. Edwin helped me out and was really helpful!”
Trusted with crew shower trailers by companies that could pick anyone
The companies that could rent anything still call us, because a bad shower at a base camp or a film set becomes the story of the whole job. The Lavatory has provided trailers for names like Google, Tesla, BMW, Mercedes, eBay, and Target, for hospitality at Caesars Palace, and for pro sports including the Golden State Warriors, Oakland A’s, and Las Vegas Raiders.
The reason those bookings repeat is simple. A hot shower at the end of a long day is the one thing a crew remembers about the camp, so the trailer has to be stocked, heated and serviced every day of the job, not just the first one. That is how we run every unit in the fleet, and it is the same standard behind every Tracy booking, from a two-week jobsite to a festival campground.
Three decades in event and equipment rental, running the largest luxury trailer fleet in the Western U.S. Every unit ours, never a broker’s.
Mobile shower unit rentals for Tracy evacuation shelters and relief sites
For most Tracy jobs we start with the 8-Station, because a shelter or a crew camp sends a lot of people to the showers at the same hour. It is CAL FIRE approved, and the 8-Station also has an exterior 4-sink hand wash bank so people can wash up without waiting on a shower room.
Tracy sits between two kinds of risk. To the west, the Diablo Range hills burn in dry years, and the 2020 SCU Lightning Complex fire spread across several counties in that range, San Joaquin among them. To the north, the Delta’s levees hold back water that can rise fast in a wet winter or a big spring melt. Both kinds of emergency can push families out of their homes and into a shelter for several days at a time.
A shelter set up in a school gym or a community center almost never has enough showers. Locker rooms are sized for a PE class, not for 200 people living in the building. We plan relief work around that gap, so we ask how many people are sleeping on site, whether families with young kids or older adults are in the mix, and where a trailer can sit close to the door without blocking an ambulance lane.
Room by room: what a trailer gives you
Private rooms with a lockable door
Every shower is its own room with a door that locks, a bench and a hook, so a crew or a camp showers with real privacy instead of a curtain in a row.
Hot and cold water controls
A water heater and onboard tanks feed hot and cold controls in each room, with 1.5 GPM shower heads so the hot water lasts through a full shift of people.
Air conditioning and heat
Climate control in every trailer, so a shower in a July heat wave or a January storm response feels like the one at home.
One-piece gel-coated fiberglass
Walls, ceiling and floor are one molded fiberglass surface with no seams, which is why the rooms clean fast, stay clean and never smell like a locker room.
Runs with or without hookups
Fresh and waste tanks on board, a generator when the site has no power, and the option to tie into on-site septic on a long deployment.
Serviced, stocked and pumped
We deliver the trailer stocked and come back to pump, restock and clean on longer jobs, so day twelve looks like day one.
Heat is the quieter emergency here. Summer days on the valley floor often go past 100 degrees, and a long heat wave can open cooling centers for people who have no working AC at home. For a site like that, a shower room with its own AC is a real relief, so we keep the rooms cool, and we make sure the water heater keeps up during the evening rush. We serve more than Tracy. See portable shower trailer rentals throughout the Bay Area.
Most shelters need at least one accessible room, so we often pair an 8-Station with the ADA + 2 unit. We set service for the early morning hours before the building wakes up, so the rooms are clean and the tanks are ready before the first line forms.
Full specifications for every unit are on the 8-Station spec page and its four sister pages, or call and we will spec it to your Tracy head count.
Every configuration lives on the shower trailer service page. Here is how we match one to a California site.
Five sizes of private shower trailers, and how to pick one for the Tracy area
Five shower units cover everything from a single ADA-compliant room to a camp that showers two hundred people a day. Every one has hot water, private rooms and climate control. Tell us the head count, how long the job runs and what the site has for water and power, and we will size it.
8-Station Private Shower Trailer
Eight completely private shower rooms in a 29-foot box, built for crews, camps and relief sites of up to about 200 people a day. Hot and cold controls, 200-gallon fresh and 950-gallon waste tanks, an exterior four-sink hand wash bank under the roof line, and it can tie into on-site septic for long deployments. CAL FIRE approved for wildfire camp service, the spec incident teams ask for in every western state.
ADA + 2 Private Shower Trailer
Two standard private shower rooms plus one ADA room with a self-contained ramp, built to federal and California ADA requirements. The right unit when a site needs accessibility without giving up capacity, with 210 gallons of fresh water on board.
4-Station Shower, Restroom and Laundry Combo
Four private bathrooms, each with a toilet, sink, shower and power outlet, plus a washer and dryer in a separate room. A self-contained hygiene block for a crew of up to about 30 on a remote or long-term job.
2-Station Shower and Restroom Combo
Two private bathrooms with a toilet, sink and shower each, in a compact 11-foot box. The pick for a small crew, a ranch job or a production base that needs both functions in one footprint.
Single-Station ADA Shower and Restroom Combo
One fully accessible room: ADA china toilet with grab bars, roll-in shower with a seat and hand wand, ADA-height sink and vanity, and a ramp that deploys in minutes. It pairs with any other unit so every person on site is covered.
Bigger jobs run several trailers side by side, and long deployments get a service schedule instead of a one-time drop. If you are between sizes, we spec it to the head count rather than nudge you into more trailer than the job calls for.
We serve crews, camps and productions with shower trailer rentals throughout California, sized to the head count.
More jobs our private shower trailer rentals cover in Tracy
Three kinds of work fill most of our Tracy calendar. Shelters and relief sites come with almost no warning. Construction crews stay for months at a time, and film crews need a base camp that shows up on schedule and stays out of the shot.
Warehouse turnover crews
When a distribution center changes tenants, racking and dock crews work long shifts to turn the building over. A shower unit on the lot lets out-of-town crews clean up before they drive back.
Fairground and dirt track crews
The San Joaquin County Fair grounds in Stockton host dirt track racing, livestock shows and swap meets. Setup crews and livestock handlers who stay on site often want a real shower after a long day.
Fun runs and youth sports weekends
Events like the Fast & Furriest Fun Run and games at Steve Lopez Stadium put a lot of people on the move in a short window. We size for that peak hour and service right after it.
Farm and harvest labor housing
Tomato and row crop harvests around Tracy run through the hottest weeks of the year. When a grower houses a crew for the season, a shower and laundry combo can cover the gap.
Wind farm and utility work
Turbine and line crews in the Altamont hills work far from any building. A self-contained unit on a nearby pad gives them a hot shower before the drive home.
What ties these together is that a hot shower changes how a long day ends. Because our units sit staged across the region instead of a couple of states away, getting a shower trailer to a Tracy site, even on a short-notice call, is an ordinary ask here, not a scramble.
Site planning and ADA access for private shower trailers in the Tracy area
Cal/OSHA sets the baseline for every job site in the state. Title 8, section 1526 requires toilets and washing facilities sized to the number of workers on a construction job. Section 3395, the heat illness standard, requires shade and fresh water on outdoor jobs, and extra steps once it hits 95 degrees, which happens often in a Tracy summer. A cool room to clean up in helps crews through those long days. Our Tracy team can also take care of bathroom trailer rentals in Stockton, CA.
Some jobs require showers by rule. Title 8, section 1529 calls for a decontamination area with showers on Class I asbestos work, and section 1532.1 calls for showers where feasible when lead exposure runs above the action level. Older buildings downtown and at the older industrial sites can carry both hazards. We can set up a unit with a clean side and a dirty side and write the placement into your safety plan. The same dispatch team that schedules Tracy jobs also books temporary shower trailers in Manteca.
Placement rules depend on who owns the ground, and they differ from site to site. On a Tracy city street, you need an encroachment permit, while a unit on private property usually does not. Shelters on school or county land follow the rules of that agency. We ask these questions early so the trailer lands in a spot it can keep. For more on statewide work, see our page on shower trailer rentals across California.
What we cover on ADA and pad prep
- ADA-compliant shower units with a ramp, roll-in shower, seat, hand wand, grab bars and an ADA-height sink.
- Guidance on where to place the trailer so it is easy to reach, easy to service and level.
- Water and power sorted before delivery, with a generator and a water supply staged when the site has neither.
- Licensed and insured on every unit we put on the road.
One thing we always say plainly: some sites, agencies and city permits have their own rules on placement, accessibility, greywater and temporary hygiene facilities. Tell us the site and we will help you plan around them, but confirm any permit requirements with the property or the agency as well.
First call to final pickup for a private shower trailer in the Tracy area
Booking should be the easy part of running a site. Four steps, a straight answer, and one team that owns the whole thing.
Tell us about the site
Share the dates, a rough head count and where the trailer will sit. That is enough for us to point you to the right unit and count.
We match the trailer and the hookups
We confirm whether the site has water and power or needs a generator and a supply, and pin the exact spot so delivery is one clean trip.
Delivery and setup
We arrive on your schedule, level and set the trailer, connect it, heat the water and stock every room so it is ready before the first shift ends.
Use it, we handle service and pickup
The trailer holds up through the whole deployment while our line stays open. When you are done, we come back and take it away.
Inside and out: our crew shower trailers near Tracy
Our shower trailers, and the kinds of sites we set them up on. Base camps, jobsites, race weekends, productions and the relief sites where the trailer has to run for weeks.
What a crew shower trailer saves a Tracy deployment
Think about what a Tracy deployment actually costs to run. Wages, lodging, fuel, the schedule pressure, the people you are asking to work long days away from home. Then picture the end of that shift with nowhere to get clean. A shower is the one thing every person on site uses, and it is the detail they quietly judge the whole camp by.
A private shower trailer protects everything else you are spending. Crews sleep better and stay on the job, a production keeps cast and crew comfortable through a long schedule, and a relief site gives people back a piece of normal. Set against the cost of the deployment, it is a small line item that carries a lot of the morale, which is why the managers who have run a camp without one book the trailer first the next time.
Crew shower trailer rentals for Mountain House, River Islands and the I-205 corridor
Mountain House, right on Tracy’s west side, became its own city on July 1, 2024. Its master plan covers 4,784 acres in 12 neighborhoods, and the community is still well short of full build-out, so homes, schools and civic buildings are going up at the same time. North of Tracy, River Islands in Lathrop has its own Town Center still under construction. Between them, those two projects keep a lot of building crews working in the area for years to come.
The freeway triangle formed by I-205, I-580 and I-5 is the other big driver. Tracy has grown into a regional logistics hub, with distribution centers packed into the northeast side of town, and DLA Distribution Tracy, a defense supply depot, has operated here since 1942. New warehouse shells and tenant upgrades bring in steel, electrical and racking crews who work long days inside metal buildings in summer heat.
Out-of-town crews are the ones who ask us for showers most often. A travel crew that lodges in a motel still has to drive back covered in dust, and a crew living in RVs on the site may have no shower at all. For a job like that, we plan a unit that stays put for the whole project and gets serviced between shifts, and where a site has a sewer line, we tie in to cut pump truck trips.
Rail work adds its own crews. The Altamont Corridor Express runs through Tracy, and its Valley Rail extension is pushing service farther east into the valley. Rail and grading crews work along the line, often far from any building, so we plan moves along the corridor so the unit follows the crew instead of sitting behind it.
On-site shower trailer rentals for film and TV base camps near Tracy
The golden hills around Altamont Pass, the long, flat farm roads south of town and the wide valley sky give productions open backdrops within an easy drive of the Bay Area. Those locations have one thing in common, which is that there is no building nearby. A crew that shoots all day in dust, heat or wind wants a real shower before it drives home or heads back to a motel.
Film work runs on a call sheet, and we plan to it by asking for the call time, the wrap time and the base camp layout. The unit goes where people can reach it quickly between setups, and far enough from the set that a closing door never ends up in a take. We also keep the generator side of the trailer pointed away from the set.
Stunt crews, grips and wardrobe teams often need showers most. Talent may need a private, quiet room, and our locking rooms with their own lights and mirrors work for that too. On a multi-day shoot, we service after wrap so the rooms are fresh for the next call. When a production moves from the hills to a Livermore location, our Livermore crew shower trailer rentals can pick up that end of the shoot.
Some shoots are only a day or two long, while others hold a base camp in place for several weeks, and we can plan either one. For short shoots, we fill from our own tanks so the unit works the moment it lands, and for long holds we set up a water and waste plan that fits the schedule.
Delivery, setup and service for private shower trailers across the Tracy area
We handle the whole thing, not just the drop-off. Our team delivers the trailer, levels and sets it, connects water and power or stages a generator and a water supply, fires the heater and stocks every room before the first person needs it. When the job wraps, we come back and haul it away.
On longer or higher-traffic bookings in Tracy, we pump and restock on a schedule, and an on-site attendant is available for camps and productions where the trailer runs all day. That always-clean standard is the difference between a shower people use once and one they are glad to use every night of the job.
Three Tracy job types, and how we set up self-contained shower units for them
Shelter manager during a heat wave
When a community center opens as a cooling site for several nights, we plan an ADA + 2 unit near the side entrance and set service for the early morning, so the rooms are clean before the building wakes up.
Superintendent on a warehouse build
When a steel crew is working inside a hot metal shell for months, we plan the 8-Station on the lot with a sewer tie-in and a service window between the day and swing shifts.
Location manager on a hill shoot
When a production is shooting on a ranch road near Altamont Pass, we plan the unit at base camp with the doors facing away from set and service after wrap each night.
Tracy neighborhoods we deliver portable shower trailers to
We deliver anywhere in Tracy and out to Mountain House, Lathrop, Manteca and the hills toward Altamont Pass. Same-day and after-hours delivery is available when a shelter, a fire or a changed schedule cannot wait. Tell us about the gate, the ground and the power you have, and we will tell you which unit fits.
We cover Tracy shower trailer rentals across California. Towns and job corridors we serve include Downtown Tracy, Ellis, Tracy Hills, Northeast Industrial, Redbridge, Edgewood, Glenbriar, Westgate, Corral Hollow, Larch Clover, Banta, Mountain House, Lathrop, River Islands, Manteca, Vernalis, Altamont Pass, Grant Line Road, Schulte Road, MacArthur Drive, Eleventh Street corridor, Lammers Road, Patterson Pass Road, Chrisman Road.
Our statewide California shower trailer service covers the regions this page does not name.
Downtown Tracy
The downtown blocks around the Grand Theatre have short curbs and steady traffic. We usually place the compact combo here and set it early in the morning.
Northeast logistics district
Distribution centers fill the northeast side of town near I-205. Big paved lots here take our largest unit with room to spare.
Ellis and the west side
Newer homes and school sites line the west side of Tracy. Utility and building crews working there often need a mid-size unit that fits a residential street.
South Tracy and Corral Hollow Road
South of town, homes give way to farm land and the road toward the hills. We bring units that carry their own water for sites with no hookups.
Tracy Hills
Tracy Hills is a newer master-planned area on the south side of I-580. Its active building sites often sit on dirt pads, so we level on plate.
Banta and the county edge
The small community of Banta and the farm land around it sit just east of the city. Harvest and levee crews working out there need a self-contained unit.
Planned rentals are usually scheduled the same week, and we do our best to cover last-minute Tracy dates when a trailer is nearby. See also: 8-Station Private Shower Trailer. See also: ADA + 2 Private Shower Trailer.

“Ron is the dam guy he is amazing and hard working that’s mahhhh dood …yeedude”
What productions ask about self-contained shower units in Tracy
Do costs change much between a one-week rental and a three-month job in Tracy?
Yes, and the length is only one piece of it. Unit size, how many people use it, how often we service it, and whether we bring water in all change the quote. Long rentals usually work out better per day because delivery and setup spread over more time, and tell us your head count and dates and we will give you a clear quote the same day.
Will your truck be able to get onto a dirt pad in Tracy Hills or Mountain House?
In most cases, yes, and we ask about the gate, the turn and the ground before we commit, and our largest unit is 35 ft with the tongue, so a tight lot may get the 11 ft combo instead. On dirt pads we level the trailer on blocks and plate so the doors close right and the drains flow.
Can one unit handle a crew of 80 coming off shift at once?
One 8-Station clears about 48 people an hour at ten minutes a person, and for 80 people in a single wave, most jobs use two units, or one 8-Station plus a smaller combo. If your shifts stagger, one unit may be enough, and we work it out from your shift times.
Is someone on site to clean and restock during a long shelter or camp?
We service on a set schedule, and we move the visits to fit your quiet hours. Each visit covers cleaning, restocking and pumping as needed, and on large camps and shelters, we can add visits during the busiest weeks. Tell us your hours and we will build the plan.
Where do you place an ADA unit at a school or community center shelter?
We put it on a firm, level spot close to an accessible entrance, with a clear path to the ramp. The ADA + 2 unit has one accessible room and two standard rooms, and it meets federal ADA requirements and California’s accessibility code. We check the path before we set the ramp.
What does it take to run several shower units at one big camp?
We plan the whole camp at once, not one trailer at a time, and that means spacing units so lines do not cross, planning power and water for all of them, and setting one service route. We can start with one unit and add more as the camp grows, and our fleet size lets us scale up on short notice.
When does the waste tank need pumping on a busy job?
The 8-Station holds 950 gallons of waste. How fast that fills depends on how many people shower each day and how long. We set a pump-out schedule so the tank never runs full, and on long jobs, a septic or sewer tie-in can cut pump truck visits.
How do you get water to a shower unit on a site with no hookups?
Short jobs run on the onboard tank, which is 200 gallons on the 8-Station and 210 on the ADA + 2. If your site has a hose bib or a meter, we fill from it and top off on each visit. On long jobs with no water line, we set up a delivered supply on a schedule that matches your use.
Can you deliver on a weekend if a shelter opens on a Saturday?
Yes, and our dispatch runs around the clock, and weekend and after-hours delivery is available, and the sooner you call, the sooner we can stage a unit and start moving it toward you.
How do your trailers hold up in a Tracy heat wave?
Every unit has AC and heat with a smart thermostat, so rooms stay cool even when it is over 100 degrees outside. We face doors away from the afternoon sun and wind where we can, and we also check the AC and water heater on every service visit.

Planning showers for an evacuation shelter in Tracy
An evacuation shelter comes together in a hurry, and a school gym or a community center turns into a place where people sleep, eat and try to stay clean for days at a time. Showers are almost always the first gap people notice, because a building’s locker room was never meant for that kind of use.
The first question we ask is how many people are sleeping on site. A shelter with 60 people and one with 300 need very different setups, so we also ask how long the shelter may stay open, even if the answer is only a guess, since that changes the water and waste plan.
Sizing a crew shower trailer for a Tracy warehouse or subdivision build
Construction around Tracy tends to be big and long, since a warehouse shell can take many months to finish, and subdivision work in Mountain House and Tracy Hills can go on for years. Getting the shower setup right at the start saves a lot of trouble later.
Start with the number of workers who will use the showers, not the total crew, and on many jobs, local workers go home to shower and only travel crews use the trailer. On others, everyone uses it because the work is dirty or hot enough that nobody wants to drive home that way.
Cal/OSHA Title 8 section 1526, toilets at construction sites
What to ask a shower trailer company before a film shoot near Tracy
A film or TV base camp has different needs than a job site, since the schedule is tight, noise matters, and crews may shoot in several places over a few days. Here are the questions we think every production should ask before booking showers.
Can the unit arrive before call time? A base camp needs to be ready when the first crew shows up, which may be before sunrise. Ask the company when the truck will arrive and how long setup takes on a site like yours, because our units can be working within a short window after they land.
Running a shower trailer through a Tracy summer
Summer on the valley floor is hard on people and hard on equipment, because days often run past 100 degrees and the wind off Altamont Pass can be strong. Here is how we keep a shower unit working well through the hottest months.
Placement comes first, and where we can, we face the doors away from the afternoon sun and out of the wind. A door that opens into a hot wind lets heat and dust into the room every time someone steps in.
Growing from one shower unit to a full camp in the Tracy area
Many jobs start small and grow, and a shelter that opens with 50 people may have 250 by the end of the week, and a construction project may add a second crew halfway through. Here is how we plan for that growth.
Start with a plan for the full size, even if you only need one unit today. We look at where a second or third unit could go, where power and water would come from, and how the pump truck would reach all of them.
