Shower & Restroom Combination
Calais is a border shopping and service center where retail and construction are the main businesses, and crews working at crossings and stores need showers and restrooms together. Combination trailers lead our Calais rentals.

Calais lies on the St. Croix River at the eastern edge of the country, and river ice, winter storms, and outages can disrupt a city of 3,079 that serves two countries. Crews and families need combination shower and restroom trailers, sleepers, and laundry near the work.
24/7 Emergency Remote Man Camp Basecamp leasing in Calais provides sleepers, showers, laundry, and restroom trailers on generator power.
Major History: Champlain, Mills, and a Gunpowder Tale
Samuel de Champlain and his men spent the winter of 1604 on St. Croix Island, and the first permanent settler, Daniel Hill, arrived in 1779 and built the first sawmill in 1782. The township was sold in 1789 and incorporated on June 16, 1809, named for Calais, France, in honor of French help in the Revolution. River power ran sawmills, shingle mills, axe factories, foundries, granite works, and a tannery. Retail, bridge, and utility contractors rent sleepers, combos, and laundry near the work.

Renovation: Stores, Crossings, and Downtown
Retail, service, and construction businesses are the primary components of the economy, and stores, border facilities, and downtown buildings renovate in stages. A restroom trailer covers plumbing downtime, and a mobile kitchen trailer for lease in Calais keeps a site serving during work.
Emergency Equipment Access in Calais
Three ports of entry over the St. Croix River connect Calais with St. Stephen, and the city is the shopping center for eastern Washington County and Charlotte County, New Brunswick. Border traffic shapes delivery planning. These are public routes; our deliveries are scheduled around current conditions.
Border Neighbors and Fourth of July Tradition
A tale of shared gunpowder for Fourth of July celebrations, likely apocryphal, reflects a long friendship with St. Stephen across the river. Hosts rent restroom trailers, showers, and refrigerated trailers for rent in Calais.
Calais Weather and Site Planning
Calais has cold winters and cool summers on the river. Winter sites need heat and a plowed pad. A Remote Workforce Housing Shower Laundry Bunkbed Sleeper trailer in Calais setup for crews can share water and wastewater.
Rental Options and Prices for Calais
A 13ft shower and restroom combination with three stalls starts at an estimated $2,995 for 1 to 6 days, a 22ft combination with six stalls at an estimated $4,995, and a 30ft combination with eight stalls at an estimated $3,995. Combinations list 120V/240V service at 200 amps, which we confirm before delivery. Add laundry, sleepers, and a kitchen for Calais crews and events.
What Calais Projects Need, Season by Season
Summer is building and shopping season. Fall is foliage. Winter is cold and snowy. Spring is thaw and river ice.
Who Rents Trailers in Calais
Retail and border contractors rent combos, sleepers, and laundry. Event hosts rent restrooms and refrigeration. Agencies rent basecamps. Schools rent kitchens during work.
Planning a Trailer Site in Calais
Send us the address, dates, crew size, and a photo of the pad. For a combination trailer we confirm water, a drain or holding plan, and power before delivery. Our Portland, Oregon hub delivers into Maine on request, and delivery is listed separately on the written quote. A written quote lists each unit and the delivery and setup.
Short-Term and Long-Term Leasing in Calais
Rentals in Calais run weekly or monthly, and the rate falls as the term lengthens. A 20ft accommodation unit that starts at an estimated $2,995 for 1 to 6 days is an estimated $2,195 to $2,495 per unit for three months or more, so a long Washington County job costs less per unit than a short one. We quote delivery and setup separately, list every unit and its utility needs in writing, and extend a lease by the week or month if your schedule changes.
Permits and Site Considerations in Calais
Temporary trailers in Calais may need review by the city or Washington County. Border facilities involve the federal and state agencies, and food-service units are reviewed by health officials. We help you identify what your site needs before delivery.
Delivery, Setup, and Pickup in Calais
Deliveries in Calais are planned around the roads to the three border crossings. Most units are set within about an hour of placement, kitchens and dishwashing trailers take about five hours, stairs take 5 to 15 minutes, and ramps four to six hours. For Washington County jobs we send one schedule for delivery, setup, servicing, and pickup. A note that matters here: border traffic and winter weather can change timing, so we confirm conditions.
Power, Water, and Wastewater Planning in Calais
Every unit has utility needs, and the quote lists them: shower containers list 120V/240V service at 200 amps, laundry trailers 240V single phase at 200 amps, kitchens 220V single phase at 200 to 220 amps, and refrigerated trailers 220V at 40 to 60 amps. If a Calais site has no hookups, we supply generator trailers, water tank trailers, and greywater bladders with scheduled pump-outs, sized to the connected units.
Plantation Number 5
The place was Plantation Number 5 before it became a city, and the Massachusetts General Court sold the township for 19 cents an acre. Land records matter, so we check the parcel and the owner before a unit is placed.
A Close Border Friendship
During the War of 1812, a local ceasefire was agreed between St. Stephen and Calais because neighbors within gunshot of each other did not want a fight. The cross-border bond is still close, and crews on either side of the river often work together from the same camp.
Scenario: A Border Crossing Rebuild
Imagine a contractor with a 30-person crew rebuilding approach roads and facilities at a border crossing over one season. Three combination shower and restroom trailers, a laundry trailer, and fifteen bunk bed sleepers with heat on a pad near the work, served weekly, would give the crew a base. That is the combination trailer lease in Calais we can plan from your headcount.
