Special Events + Get AlertsPurchasing a new restroom trailer is a substantial investment, so it’s beneficial to put money toward a product that can serve a range of applications.
Optimus Industries designed OI-3 restroom trailers to be versatile, so PROs can cover a wide array of events with one trailer. “Because of its versatility, the OI-3 fills the need for units that can cover small to medium size events and everything in between,” says Chuck Millslagle, president and co-owner of Optimus Industries. “It can cover a VIP area at a concert or corporate event, to a weekend wedding or a long-term restroom remodel at a big-box store.”
The versatile design stems from the components and materials used. Millslagle says that the company chooses those things based on a specific criteria. “First, we look at quality, durability and safety,” he says. “Then ease of use and maintenance, followed by aesthetics and lastly, production friendliness.”
The result is a restroom trailer with three separate facilities that sets up quickly using various stabilizer options. On the inside, users will find fiberglass walls, solid-surface countertops, self-closing faucets, ceramic china pedal flush toilets, composite trim and cabinets, transit-grade flooring and a climate control sensor.
The exterior features seamless fiberglass with a composite backer and easy-to-read vacant/occupied indicators coupled with 32-inch entrance doors. Fold down steps with swing-grab handles make for safe and easy entry and exit. The unit sits on a 7,000-pound torsion axle with 16-inch aluminum wheels and radial tires.
Optimus Industries also offers some customization options for the floorplans as well as options for interior colors, heat packages, vent packages, heated sink water, stereos, battery assist, PRO packages and key matching.
“We abide by a simple principle that we let quality dictate price and not the price dictate quality,” Millslagle says. “We spent countless hours speaking with PROs about what they liked. We value all feedback and have made many refinements over the years based on what we hear.”
Millslagle says they have received a stream of positive feedback and that PROs like a simple and fast setup along with the flowing, spacious, durable and elegant interior designs. 574-226-0691; www.oirestrooms.com
