Nevada Shower Trailer Planning Scenarios: Tonopah, Elko, and Ely
Three illustrative scenarios, not past projects, worked through with OSHA ratios, the ADA rule, and our starting rates. Each scenario, set around Tonopah, Elko, and Ely, shows how crew size, shifts, remote access, and utilities turn into a shower trailer or combo order, so you can follow the same steps for your own site and request a quote with the numbers ready.
Key points
- Planning scenarios are illustrative, not completed projects.
- Each one starts from headcount and the rule that applies, then picks units.
- Starting rates come from our current price list; delivery is quoted per address.
Planning scenarios · illustrative, not past projects. They show how we would size a rental from public rules and our price list. For real project examples, ask us.
A plant shutdown near Tonopah
Forty workers, 30 men and 10 women, on a two-week maintenance shutdown at a site outside Tonopah, where the work calls for showers. OSHA's general-industry rule of one shower per 10 employees of each sex means three showers for the men and one for the women: a 20ft Shower Container (5 Individual Stalls) with five stalls covers it, starting from $3,995 / month. OSHA's toilet table calls for three for 40 employees, so a Restroom Trailer goes alongside. Water tanks and waste hauling are quoted for the distance.
A rodeo weekend in Elko
A three-day event with competitors staying on the grounds in Elko. A Luxury Shower-Restroom Combination Trailer (8 Individual Stalls + 1 ADA) gives showers and restrooms with an accessible stall, meeting the 5 percent rule for a cluster under the 2010 ADA Standards. A ramp goes in a day ahead; the Elko NWS office forecast sets the delivery window.
A care-home remodel in Ely
A residential care home in Ely closes its bathing rooms for a six-week remodel. A Luxury Shower-Restroom Combination Trailer (3 Individual Stalls + 1 ADA) placed by the side entrance, with a ramp, keeps residents bathing on schedule. Rented by the month; pickup is set for the week the new rooms pass inspection.
