The Lavatory sets the bar for shower trailer rentals in Vallejo
The Lavatory runs the largest luxury trailer fleet in the Western U.S., and we treat the ADA unit as part of the first truck, not a late add. Our ADA + 2 trailer brings its own ramp and rails, and our single-station ADA combo has a roll-in shower with a seat and a hand-held wand. When a Vallejo shelter opens, a guest in a wheelchair gets a hot shower on day one. That is true at crew camps too. That is the standard we hold on every job, from a Glen Cove church hall to a fairgrounds evacuation site. Call us to hold an accessible unit with your order, or request a quote online and we will plan the layout with you.
We own all 250+ units
No broker sits between you and the trailer. The team that takes your call books the unit, drives it and comes back to service it.
Tanks sized for a long day
Our deluxe 8-Station carries 200 gallons of fresh water and 950 of waste. On a shelter day that means fewer service stops and no shut doors at dinner time.
Pump-outs on a set schedule
We set the waste and water runs around your shift change, not ours. If the head count jumps, we add a run that night.
We plan around Highway 37 closures
Highway 37 flooded shut for 28 days in the winter of 2016 and 2017. For Mare Island jobs we keep a backup route over the Tennessee Street causeway in the plan.
“When you call about a shower trailer in Vallejo, ask for the service tech who handled our site, because he did a great job. He showed up on time every visit and kept the rooms clean and stocked for our crew on Mare Island.”
“Our evacuation shelter in Vallejo kept the 8-Station for nine days, and the rooms stayed clean the entire stay. I want to thank the service crew who came out each morning and worked hard to keep it that way.”
“The private showers were spotless and the hot water never ran out for our line crew. The tech who serviced it was great, and I highly recommend The Lavatory to anyone who needs crew showers in Solano County.”
What customers say about our portable shower trailers
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 Vallejo 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.
Temporary shower trailers for Vallejo evacuation shelters and relief sites
Most Vallejo shelters and big crew camps start with the 8-Station, since it covers about 200 people a day on one 50 amp circuit. We pair it with an ADA + 2 whenever the public is involved, and we send a combo when a small crew also needs toilets and laundry.
Solano County splits Vallejo into named evacuation zones, and Alert Solano sends the warnings by phone, text and email. In September 2023 a three-alarm grass fire near Benicia Road and Banning Way led to an evacuation order for Zone SOL-3270, north of Benicia Road and west of Rollingwood Drive. That order was lifted the same day. Bigger fires in the hills, like the 2020 LNU Lightning Complex that burned 363,220 acres across six counties, can keep people out of their homes for weeks.
A shelter in a gym or a church hall almost never has enough shower rooms. On the first night people need a cot and a meal. By the second morning the line for the one locker room shower is out the door. Our temporary shower units fix that fast. An 8-Station on the parking lot turns over about 200 people a day, and the ADA + 2 next to it covers seniors and anyone using a wheelchair. Private showers in Vallejo shelters keep families clean, calm and healthy while they wait.
What is built into each shower unit
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.
The Solano County Fairgrounds at 900 Fairgrounds Drive is the easiest big drop in the city. It is flat, paved and open, right off Highway 37 near I-80. During past county fires the fairgrounds took in horses and livestock, and the animal care volunteers needed showers too. We have learned to stage the trailer close to the shelter door, on a level spot away from truck traffic, with a lit path for the night shift. During the 2017 Tubbs Fire, families from Sonoma County stayed in shelters for weeks, and our on-site shower trailer rentals in Santa Rosa now cover that same side of the North Bay.
Earthquakes are the other risk here. The 2014 South Napa quake red-tagged 10 Vallejo buildings and broke a water main on Mare Island. When the mains are down, a self-contained trailer still works. It carries its own fresh water and its own waste tank, and we bring water refills by truck. Relief groups and county teams can rent a private shower trailer in Vallejo for a few days or a few months, and we keep the service schedule going the whole time.
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 Vallejo head count.

Matching crew shower trailers to crews, camps and productions in the Vallejo 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.
The same fleet covers shower trailer delivery across California, matched to crew size and duration.

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.
Why base camps budget for a mobile shower unit first in Vallejo
Think about what a Vallejo 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.
Getting a crew shower trailer to the Vallejo area, step by step
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.
Utility and line crews in Vallejo get hot-water shower trailers
When PG&E shuts off power for high wind, crews have to walk and check every line before the lights come back. The October 2019 shutoffs hit about 30 Northern California counties and more than 3 million people. After a fire, line crews rebuild poles and wire in burn areas where soot covers everything. Those crews work 16 hour days. A clean, hot shower at the base camp is one of the few things that keeps them on schedule.
Base camps for storm and fire work need space, a flat surface and a road a big truck can turn on. The fairgrounds, utility yards along the Sonoma Boulevard corridor and paved lots near I-80 all work. We set the 8-Station on generator power or a site panel, since it needs only one 50 amp circuit. Mutual aid crews who come in from out of state get the same setup our crews in Hayward and the East Bay use, and our multi-station shower trailer rentals in Hayward follow the same plan.
Planned work brings crews too. PG&E’s Vallejo B Substation serves nearly 23,000 customers, and its old brick switchgear building is set to be torn down and replaced. The Fleming Hill Water Treatment Plant can treat up to 42 million gallons a day from the North Bay Aqueduct and Lake Berryessa, and shutdown windows there are tight. A mobile shower unit on site saves the crew a drive back to the yard between shifts.
Line crews also move. A camp that starts at the fairgrounds may shift to a yard in American Canyon a week later. We move the trailer with the crew and keep the pump-out and water runs going. Our hot-water shower trailer rentals near Vallejo are built for that kind of job, with AC and heat in every room and tanks sized for a full shift change. Crews who have used them call them luxury showers for rent in Vallejo, and after a 16 hour day in the soot, we understand why.
The service behind every one of our crew shower trailers in the Vallejo 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 Vallejo, 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.
Site planning for crew shower trailers in the Vallejo area, done right
A temporary shower unit on private land in Vallejo, like a company yard or a church lot, usually needs no city permit for a short stay. Public property is different. The City of Vallejo asks for a special event permit when more than 75 people gather and a temporary structure or portable toilet goes up. Parks owned by the Greater Vallejo Recreation District go through GVRD, which wants about two weeks of lead time on field bookings. We plan our delivery date so the unit lands after the paperwork clears. Sizing works the same way for mobile shower rentals in Concord, CA, about 15 miles southeast of Vallejo.
Shelters and disaster sites usually fall under the agency running the response, and our mobile shower trailer rentals near Vallejo slot into that chain of command. County and city teams decide where the trailer sits, and our job is to get it there and keep it running. For accessibility, our ADA + 2 meets federal ADA requirements and California’s code, so it covers the accessible room count most shelters need. Our 8-Station is CAL FIRE approved for fire camps. Emergency orders outside Vallejo go through the same dispatch line, including portable Fairfield shower units.
Construction camps fall under Cal/OSHA sanitation rules, which call for washing facilities on the job and showers when the work exposes crews to harmful materials. Abatement, sandblast and sewage work all fit that rule. If your crews also work outside Solano County, our temporary shower facility rentals in Northern California follow the same plan from one dispatch.
Ramps, rooms and site access on the site
- 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.
Crew shower trailer rentals for Mare Island and Highway 37 builds
The biggest job coming to the Vallejo area is the Resilient SR 37 Sears Point to Mare Island Improvement Project. Caltrans plans to rebuild about 10 miles of highway across the marsh, add lanes and shoulders, replace the Tolay Creek Bridge and widen the Sonoma Creek Bridge, out to the Walnut Avenue overcrossing at Mare Island. The state approved it in June 2026, and construction is expected to start between late 2026 and spring 2027. Crews will work in mud, wind and night closures for years.
Marsh work has no buildings nearby. Crews come off shift wet and covered in mud, and most of them still have a long drive home. Crew shower trailer rentals in Vallejo give them a hot shower at the staging yard before they get in the truck. We stage the unit on gravel or mats, block it against the wind and set a pump-out run that fits the shift change. If the same yard needs toilets for the day crew, our Vallejo restroom trailer rentals can ride the same delivery schedule.
Mare Island has been a work site since the Navy opened the shipyard in 1854. The base closed in 1996, and the island has been under redevelopment ever since, with old brick shops, ship repair yards and new tenants side by side. Abatement, demolition and ship repair are dirty jobs, and crews want a real shower before lunch and again when the last shift ends. Across the river, the Vallejo Flood and Wastewater District treats about 6 billion gallons a year through 450 miles of pipe and 40 pump stations, and plant crews there deal with the worst of it.
Across the strait in Benicia, the refinery stopped making fuel in 2026, and idling and cleanup work on big process units brings contract crews for months. We size these jobs to the biggest shift, not the total crew. An 8-Station handles a large shift change. A 4-Station combo with its washer and dryer is better for a crew of 30 living in a trailer camp. Contractors who need portable shower rentals in Vallejo, CA for one week or one year get the same crew and the same service.
More Vallejo work our portable shower trailers cover
Most calls we get for Vallejo jobs come from three places. Shelters and relief sites open when fire, quake or a long outage pushes people out of their homes. Construction and industrial crews work long shifts on Mare Island, the Highway 37 marsh and the plants along the strait. Utility crews come in to rebuild lines and restore power after wind and fire. Each one gets a different setup, and we plan it from the first call.
Code Blue nights with outreach groups
Groups like the Sparrow Project already offer showers and laundry in Vallejo. A trailer adds rooms on cold nights, on hot days or after a camp clears, and the 4-Station combo adds a washer and dryer.
Sonoma Raceway race weekends
The track sits at Highway 37 and Highway 121, a short drive west of Mare Island. Race teams and campers need hot showers after a long day in the sun and wind.
Film crews on Mare Island’s old streets
Brick shops and empty piers draw film and TV shoots to the island. A deluxe shower unit near base camp keeps a long shoot day moving.
Wastewater and water plant shutdowns
Crews at the Ryder Street plant and the Fleming Hill plant work in tight shutdown windows. A shower on site keeps them from carrying the job home.
Ship repair and abatement on the waterfront
Dry dock, sandblast and abatement work leave crews covered in grit. A private room with hot water at lunch and end of shift makes the day safer and cleaner.
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 Vallejo site, even on a short-notice call, is an ordinary ask here, not a scramble.
Three kinds of Vallejo-area jobs, and how we plan hot-water shower trailers for each
Shelter manager, fairgrounds evacuation site
When a fire in the hills sends families to the fairgrounds, we take the head count by phone and send an 8-Station and an ADA + 2 on the first trucks. We set them near the shelter door on a level spot, run a lit path to the ramp and post the hours on a sign. If the shelter grows overnight, a second unit follows from the same fleet.
Superintendent, marsh highway staging yard
When a highway crew sets up a staging yard at the edge of the marsh, we look at the ground first. Soft fill gets mats or gravel under the jacks, and the trailer faces away from the wind off the bay. We set the pump-out for the hour after the night shift ends, so the unit is fresh when the day crew rolls in.
Line crew foreman, storm restoration base camp
When mutual aid crews arrive after a big wind event, the camp grows by the hour. We start with one 8-Station on generator power and add a 4-Station combo for the crew that needs laundry. We check the generator load before we leave, and our driver comes back each day for water and waste.
Vallejo neighborhoods where we set on-site shower trailers
We cover every Vallejo neighborhood, from the downtown waterfront to Hiddenbrooke, and we run units out to Benicia, American Canyon, Napa and the rest of Solano County. Most Vallejo sites are a short drive from our nearest staged units, which is why Vallejo, California private showers can often be in place the same day. Vallejo shower trailer rentals are one piece of a service area that reaches all 50 states, so a job that moves to another county keeps the same crew. Call for a delivery window or request a quote online.
We cover Vallejo shower trailer rentals across California. Towns and job corridors we serve include Downtown Vallejo, Mare Island, Glen Cove, Hiddenbrooke, South Vallejo, Vallejo Heights, Springstowne, Northgate, Blue Rock Springs, Sonoma Boulevard, Fairgrounds area, Waterfront, Benicia, American Canyon, Napa, Fairfield, Suisun City, Cordelia, Crockett, Rodeo, Hercules, Pinole, Martinez, Sonoma Raceway.
Jobs outside town are covered too; the California shower trailer coverage map shows every corridor.
Downtown and the waterfront
Streets near the ferry terminal are narrow and parking is tight. Shelters and outreach sites here need a smaller unit staged on a side lot, and we plan the backing route before the truck leaves.
Mare Island
Shipyard work, plant crews and redevelopment jobs fill the island. We reach it over the Tennessee Street causeway or Highway 37 and set units on the old paved yards.
Glen Cove
Wind-driven grass fires have hit the hills around Glen Cove. Church halls and schools here can turn into short-term shelters, and an ADA unit by the door is the first thing we send.
Hiddenbrooke and the north hills
Slopes, gates and HOA rules shape every drop up here. Send us photos of the driveway and we will pick a unit that fits the turn.
South Vallejo and Sonoma Boulevard
Industrial lots and utility yards line this side of town. Crew camps and line crew bases set up here because the lots are flat and close to I-80.
Fairgrounds and Six Flags area
The fairgrounds is the biggest open pad in the city and the natural spot for a shelter or base camp. Big trucks get in and out easily off Highway 37.
We offer rapid same-day delivery and 24/7 immediate dispatch across Vallejo, and we can often be there within 1 to 2 hours.
Reviews from customers who rented our temporary shower units
“Every question we had about the Vallejo shower setup got a quick, clear reply, down to the generator size and which way the ramp should point. Their coverage across Northern California is wide, and each person on their team treated us well.”
“We hosted a two day outdoor concert on our property near Vallejo, and the musicians and crew camped on site. Everyone was amazed that a shower trailer could feel this nice. Thank you for such great service, and we recommend the showers to anyone planning an event like ours.”
“The delivery driver and the service tech were professional and polite from setup to pickup. I would recommend this shower trailer company to any shelter or work site in Vallejo.”
“Hot showers for a mud-caked crew at a Highway 37 staging yard sounded hard to pull off, yet the Vallejo dispatch made it easy. Ten out of ten on the trailer itself and on the service visits that kept it running.”
“Great experience with our shower trailer rental. The drivers were respectful, careful with our gate and on time for every pump-out.”
What work crews ask about private shower trailers in Vallejo
When a Vallejo site has no hose bib, where does the shower water come from?
Every trailer carries its own fresh water tank, 200 gallons on the 8-Station and 105 to 210 gallons on the smaller units. If the site has a hose bib, we hook up and the supply never runs out. If it does not, like a marsh staging yard or a burn area, we bring water by truck on a set schedule. We plan the refill runs around your busiest shower hours.
How do I know if I need a city permit to put a portable shower unit on my Vallejo site?
On private land for a short job, you usually do not. On public property, the City of Vallejo wants a special event permit when more than 75 people gather and a temporary structure goes up. GVRD parks go through GVRD. Shelters run by the county or city fall under the agency in charge. Tell us where the trailer will sit and we will tell you what we have seen work.
Do I need one 8-Station or two for a shelter of 300 people at the fairgrounds?
One 8-Station turns over about 200 showers a day if people come in waves. For 300 people we usually send two, or one 8-Station plus an ADA + 2, so the morning rush does not back up. The real number is how many people want a shower in the same two hours. We will run the math with you on the phone.
Will you leave a deluxe shower trailer on a Mare Island job for six months or more?
Yes. Long jobs are common for us, and many crew camps keep a unit for a full season or longer. On a long rental we can tie into a sewer or septic line so we pump less often. We keep the same service crew on your job so they know the site.
Can you get a shower trailer onto Mare Island if Highway 37 is closed?
Yes, in most cases. The Tennessee Street causeway from downtown is the other way onto the island, and we plan it as the backup route. Highway 37 has closed for weeks during big winter floods, so we ask about road status before every Mare Island delivery. If the causeway is limited, we time the drop for low traffic hours.
Is a generator enough to power a mobile shower trailer at a line crew base camp?
Yes, if it is sized right. The 8-Station needs one 50 amp, 220 volt circuit. The ADA + 2 and the 2-Station combo each use two 120 volt, 20 amp circuits. We check the generator load when we set up so the water heaters and AC do not trip it at shift change.
Where does a combo unit with toilets and laundry make more sense than a trailer with showers alone?
A combo fits a small crew of up to about 30 people who live on site in a yard. The 4-Station combo has four private bathrooms, and each one has its own toilet and shower. A washer and dryer sit in a separate room. For shelters and big crews, an 8-Station set next to restroom trailers handles far more people.
What does the ADA unit include for evacuees who use a wheelchair?
The ADA + 2 has a self-contained ramp with rails and one ADA shower room next to two standard rooms. The Single-Station ADA combo has a roll-in shower with a seat and a hand-held wand. It also has an ADA toilet with grab bars. Both meet federal ADA requirements and California’s code. We set the ramp on a firm, level path so a wheelchair can reach it without help.
How fast can you set private showers at a Vallejo shelter after an evacuation order?
We run dispatch 24/7, and we keep units staged in Northern California. In most cases a shelter in Vallejo has showers within a day of the call, and often the same day. Give us the address, the head count and a contact on site, and the truck can leave right away.
Are your trailers safe in the wind off the Carquinez Strait?
Yes. We level each unit on its jacks, chock the wheels and tie down the stairs and ramp. On windy sites we turn the doors away from the bay when we can. Every room has heat, so cold windy mornings are not a problem for the crew.
Who cleans and restocks the shower rooms during a long shelter or crew camp stay?
We do. Our crew pumps the waste, refills the water and restocks supplies on a schedule we set with you. Most shelters and camps also do a quick wipe-down between rushes, and we leave the supplies for that. If the head count grows, we add service visits.

What to have ready before you call for a mobile shower trailer in Vallejo
The fastest calls are the ones where the caller has four answers ready. How many people will shower each day, and how many will want one in the same two hours? What are the start and end dates, even if the end date is a guess? Where exactly will the trailer sit, and can a truck pulling a 35 foot load back into that spot? Is there a hose bib and a 50 amp outlet nearby, or will the unit run on tanks and a generator? With those four answers we can name the unit and give you a delivery window on the first call.
Two more details save time on the day. Send a few phone photos of the spot, the gate and the turn in, since a tight driveway in Hiddenbrooke and a wide open fairgrounds lot need very different trucks. Name one person on site who can meet the driver and sign off on the placement. If the public will use the showers, plan for an accessible room from the start and check the federal ADA guidance on routes and ramps, since the path to the trailer matters as much as the room itself.
How Vallejo agencies and nonprofits can book mobile shower trailers fast
City, county and federal teams usually buy through a contract vehicle, and the paperwork can slow down an emergency order. We are registered in SAM.gov, licensed and insured, so a buyer can check our status and set up a purchase order before the next fire season. Many teams set up an open order in spring so a call in October only needs a date and an address. Relief groups and churches that run shelters can book directly with a simple rental agreement.
The biggest delay we see is approval for the drop spot, not the trailer. Agree ahead of time on two or three places at your site where a unit could go, with a note on power and water at each. Write down who can approve a change after hours. When an order comes in at night with those details already settled, our dispatch can have the truck rolling within the hour.
Fire season prep for Vallejo shelters and churches that may host evacuees
Most Vallejo evacuations are short, but the bigger fires in the Napa and Vaca hills can push people into shelters for weeks. A church, school or community hall that might host evacuees should sign up for Alert Solano and know its own evacuation zone. Walk the lot now and pick the spot where a shower unit could sit, close to the door, level and away from where food trucks and buses will park.
Think about who will be in the building. Seniors, families with small kids and people with disabilities all show up at a shelter. An ADA room and a lit path to it should be in the plan from the start. Keep our dispatch number with your shelter binder, and when the call comes, you will only need to tell us the head count.
Running a crew shower unit near the Vallejo waterfront in winter
Vallejo winters are mild, with January averaging about 46 degrees, but the wind off the strait and the bay makes it feel colder. Rain turns marsh fill and gravel lots soft. We set the jacks on pads or mats and check them again after a big storm, since a trailer that settles even a little can tilt its drains. Every room has heat, and we keep the water heaters set so the first shower of the morning is hot.
Floods are the bigger risk on the Mare Island side. Highway 37 has closed for days or weeks during winter storms, and low lots near the river can pond. Pick a spot a few feet above the lowest part of the yard, and keep the waste hose and power cable off the ground where water collects. If a storm is coming, call us and we will move up the next pump-out so the tanks have room.
Hotel rooms or a private shower trailer: what a Vallejo crew camp really needs
Many crews sleep in hotels in Vallejo, Fairfield or American Canyon and still need a shower on site. A crew that ends a shift in mud or soot does not want to drive 20 minutes in dirty clothes, and many hotels do not want them in the lobby that way either. A shower at the yard also cuts the time between shifts, which matters on a 16 hour storm day. For crews living in RVs or a trailer camp, an on-site shower and laundry unit is often the only good option.
What changes a quote is the head count, the length of the job, how often we service it and whether the site has water, sewer and power. A long job with a sewer tie-in costs less to service than a short job on tanks in a remote spot. We will walk you through each choice and tell you where you can save, like moving a pump-out to a slower hour or adding a hose bib connection.
