Emergency Help: What to Do Right Now
Step-by-step first moves for the problems that can't wait — what to shut off, what's unsafe, and what the likely cause is before a pro arrives.
Restroom Trailer Frozen or Not Flushing in Cold Weather
If a restroom trailer stops flushing or the sinks run dry after a freezing night, the fresh-water line or tank has most likely frozen. Close the trailer to guests, keep its power on, and call the rental company before anyone tries to thaw lines.

When portable toilets fill up before the event or work week ends, close the full units and call the rental company for an extra service visit. Overflow usually means too few units for the crowd, or service visits spaced too far apart.

If a restroom trailer goes dark, the pump stops, or the inside gets too hot, the cause is almost always power: a tripped breaker, an undersized circuit, or a generator out of fuel. Check those first, then call the rental company.
