Combo Trailers: What Defines Good Design

The design challenge behind every combo trailer is making sure each operational aspect works as well as it would in a dedicated trailer.

A Comforts of Home combination trailer balances multiple functions without compromising any of them.

When you partner with us for your custom unit, we consider all aspects of function, durability and comfort, including important factors such as:

• layout & space planning. You might wish for your combo trailer to have either private spaces or a shared layout. It may have separate stalls with their own toilet, sink and shower, or the restroom and shower might be in different compartments. Doors, aisles and fixtures could be arranged in a certain way to aid better flow of traffic. You might also decide you want a bench or a dry zone in each shower stall.
• plumbing & water systems. We’ll review whether the tank type and sizing will be for freshwater or graywater/blackwater. Hookup options might be self-contained (tanks + pump-outs) or direct city water/sewer connections.
  • For heating water, on-demand propane heaters can save space, but tank-style units may be steadier if serving large groups. Water-saving fixtures such as low-flow shower heads and toilets can help extend the life of tanks.
• power & electrical. The combo trailer might be running on shore or generator power. We’ll also ensure proper load management such as for water heaters and HVAC. Interior lighting and exterior safety lights are other considerations, as are emergency backups for critical systems.
• climate & ventilation. We can design and plan the HVAC system that will make your combo trailer usable year-round as you might need. Proper exhaust fans and roof vents will prevent excess humidity, which will help restrict mold growth as well. Correct insulation for hot and cold climates will further factor into this discussion.
• materials & durability. The quality needed for your combo trailer’s applications might call for non-slip or waterproof (e.g. vinyl coin) flooring; fiberglass reinforced–plastic (FRP) panels for moisture resistance; commercial-grade sinks, faucets and toilets; and smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces for swift sanitizing.
• user comfort & experience. Perhaps you’ll add flourishes such as hooks, shelves, mirrors and benches in stalls. Your walls might have sufficient insulation for reducing “thin wall” sound issues. Durable locks can ensure privacy while being easy to open in emergencies.
• maintenance & serviceability. Just as important as having a comfortable, high-performing combo trailer is being able to easily maintain it. A Comforts of Home combo trailer includes clearly marked, easily accessible panels for pumps, heaters and plumbing; simple, quick connects and disconnects for water and power; easy-to-drain tanks; and fixtures and surfaces ready for heavy-duty cleaning.

With Comforts of Home, your design is driven by who will use it as well as how often and where. This is how together with you we achieve the right balance among luxury, strength, performance and capacity.

Safety-Conscious Combo Trailers

Your luxurious Comforts of Home portable shower and restroom combo trailer will be built to comply with health-safety guidelines for a space that different people will use.

Many safety plans and requirements will depend on the trailer’s targeted function at its specific location. At Comforts of Home, we are more than proficient builders of custom combo trailers – we are also your trailer-solutions advisors for vital matters such as safety.

For example, your particular layout might include features such as special handwashing sinks and sanitizing stations. Perhaps it will need a system for leveling if it will be on uneven ground. It may also be possible your unit will need a designated area for testing.

Handicap-Accessible Combo Trailers

Combo trailers for public or commercial use such as at public events, worksites, disaster-relief operations and community-outreach initiatives will usually need to satisfy Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards.

Comforts of Home specializes in ADA compliance for custom portable shower and bathroom combo trailers that accommodate individuals with disabilities. If you need your combination trailer to be handicap accessible, we can review elements such as:
