How Much Does a Shower Trailer Rental Cost in Antioch, CA?
A short day rental starts around 175 dollars, and a full event package can run close to 3,899 dollars depending on stall count and length of booking. Weekly rentals for crews or extended stays fall in a wide middle band, and weekend rates sit higher than a single day but below a full week. If you are comparing this against a restroom trailer rental for a wedding or a luxury restroom trailer for a corporate event, shower units usually run above standard restroom trailers because of the water heating and pump load. Delivery is a separate line item, and it is not folded into the unit price.
| unit | duration | low | typical | high |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| trailer | day | 175 | 800 | 2500 |
| trailer | weekend | 900 | 2000 | 3000 |
| trailer | week | 150 | 1397 | 1650 |
| trailer | event | 2499 | 3500 | 3899 |
Delivery fees run separately, typically 100 to 500 dollars depending on distance and site access. Ask about combining a shower trailer with a portable sink rental or a handwashing station rental if you need more wash points than the trailer alone provides.

What Comes Inside a Portable Shower Trailer?
Inside, you get individual stalls with hot and cold water, a bench, hooks and non-slip flooring, similar in spirit to the stable, slip-resistant surfaces required under ADA Standards section 302.1 for accessible routes. Stall counts vary by trailer size, so a two-stall unit suits a small work crew while a larger trailer serves a base camp or event site. If you need help sizing the right unit, our 2 stall restroom trailer and 4 stall restroom trailer pages break down layouts, and the 8 stall restroom trailer page covers larger crews.
Water heating draws power, so most trailers need a dedicated circuit or a generator hookup; ask about pairing with a temporary power pole if your site does not have power staged yet. Doorways and interior walkways are built wide enough for easy movement, echoing the 32 inch minimum clear door opening under ADA Standards section 404.2.3, though not every shower trailer is an ADA unit. If accessibility is a requirement for your job or event, ask specifically for an ADA accessible porta potty or a trailer configured to meet ADA Standards section 213.2's cluster ratio, since shower trailers are not automatically compliant.
Why Rent a Shower Trailer Instead of a Standard Portable Restroom?
Because crews and evacuees need to actually clean up, not just relieve themselves. A standard porta potty rental or deluxe flushable porta potty handles restroom needs, but neither has a shower head. Long-duration construction jobs, disaster response staging, and multi-day outdoor events in Antioch all lean on shower trailers because workers on site for a week or more need real hygiene infrastructure, not a wipe-down.
This matters most on jobs governed by OSHA 1926.51(a)(1), which requires an adequate supply of potable water at all places of employment, and on sites where 29 CFR 1910.141(d)2 requires soap and towels or a hand-drying device at washing stations, since hand sanitizer alone does not satisfy that standard. If your crew works with paints, coatings, herbicides or insecticides, OSHA 1926.51(f)(1) specifically requires washing facilities for that contaminant exposure, and a shower trailer covers that need beyond a simple handwash station. For agricultural operations, OSHA 1928.110 sets a similar bar, requiring a wash facility within a quarter mile walk for hand-labor employees. See construction site services or farm and agricultural restrooms for how this fits into a broader site plan.
Where Can I Get a Shower Trailer Delivered Near Antioch?
Antioch Porta Pros delivers throughout Antioch and to nearby communities including Brentwood, 6.8 miles southeast, and Oakley, 8.7 miles east. We also reach Concord at 16.9 miles west, Walnut Creek at 24.3 miles west, and Livermore at 29.0 miles south for larger jobs or multi-site rentals. A roll-off style delivery truck needs roughly 60 feet of straight clearance behind it to back a trailer into place, so a quick site walkthrough before delivery day saves a rescheduled trip.
Placement in a public right of way in Antioch needs confirming with the city before delivery, since specific rules were not verified for this page. Check our porta potty placement guide for general siting advice, and see service areas for the full list of towns we cover. If your event needs restrooms alongside the shower trailer, look at event restroom rental, wedding restroom rental, or festival restroom rental depending on the occasion.
Frequently asked questions
How many shower stalls do I need for my crew?
It depends on crew size and shift length, but a general guide follows the same logic as toilet ratios: OSHA 1926.51(c) sets one toilet per 20 workers on construction sites. For showers, most Antioch crews use a two or four-stall trailer for teams under 30 people. See how many porta potties do I need for sizing logic that carries over.
Does a shower trailer need a water hookup?
Most units carry an onboard fresh water tank and do not require a hookup, though longer stays benefit from one if available. Ask about tank capacity when booking. Pair it with holding tank rental if you need extra wastewater storage on site.
Can I rent a shower trailer for a single weekend?
Yes. Weekend rates apply and run higher than a single day but below a full week, since weekend pricing reflects short-term demand. This works well for disaster relief staging or a weekend event; see disaster relief sanitation for related setups.
Is a generator required to run the shower trailer?
Often yes, unless your site already has adequate power staged. Water heaters and pumps draw real load, so check amperage needs before delivery day. Our temporary power pole page covers options if you need power brought to site.
What is the difference between a shower trailer and a restroom trailer?
A shower trailer is built around wash and hygiene, with stalls, benches and water heating; a restroom trailer focuses on toilets and sinks. Many Antioch renters book both together for base camps. Compare options on restroom trailer rental.
