GENERAL RESTROOM TRAILER MAINTENANCE
TIPS
Cleaning
The entire trailer can be cleaned with general household cleaners. Tar and grease on
the outside of the trailer should be cleaned off using mineral spirits. To clean the tank,
use a high pressure sprayer.
Short Term Storage
Properly maintaining the trailer between events will increase the life of the trailer and
prevent unwanted odors. Before discussing the proper methods of storage, always
remember to pump the waste and remove the fresh water from your restroom trailer
before transporting. When the trailer returns from an event clean the inside as you
would a bathroom at home, with standard household cleaners, towels and a broom or
mop depending on floor condition. Wipe down all surfaces making sure the interior is
clean and dry.
Other steps for proper storage include making sure all doors are locked and sealed to
prevent rain, snow, or bugs from entering the trailer. With the Satellite Suites trailer the
roof vents can remain open in mild weather to allow fresh air to circulate (Maxx Air
covers keep the rain out). Make sure all breakers are turned off and that all steps and
handrails have been returned to their locked travel position.
Following these basic steps will ensure a long, low-maintenance life for your restroom
trailer.
