With many customers requiring multiple restrooms at a site, Wade Bernard, co-owner of Gotta Go Services, Pineville, Louisiana, customized two transport trailers to make delivery and pickup easier for the company’s service crew, including his wife DeLaine and their children.
One unit, from EZ-Haul Trailers, holds eight units and the other (purchased from Circle M Trailer Sales) holds 12. To improve efficiency, Wade incorporated a simple way to hold the restrooms in place.
“Each restroom has an individual rack and an angle iron locks them in place, so we don’t need any straps,” he explains.
He also chose low-profile trailers to limit lifting and help prevent injury. “It’s easier to move the restrooms with a dolly, but I can also pull them to the trailer to load and walk it on the trailer,” DeLaine says. “It’s nice that we don’t have to strap them in.” The trailer decks are about a foot off the ground, and a dolly fabricated at Gotta Go Services is often used to make maneuvering easier.
