Landmarks and organizations
Ellendale is in Dickey County, and the City of Ellendale runs the street program and the new emergency medical services building. The Ellendale school district runs the school addition and playground work, and a local land development project is also listed. None of these organizations is a customer of ours, and we do not claim they are. They are examples of owners who rent a restroom trailer or shower trailer when a building is under repair or a crew needs facilities. If you run a site for one of them or for a contractor, tell us the dates and the number of people, and we will suggest a luxury combination trailer, a restroom trailer or an ADA combination trailer. Availability and delivery are confirmed in the quote, with no promised response time. Towns such as Monango and Forbes are handled the same way. Owners and managers can tell you where a trailer may sit, who must approve it and which gates or locks apply. Ask them early, because permission is often the slowest step in any temporary setup.
Directions and site logistics
The city's street program, which is paving gravel streets, means some streets are torn up in season, and a state street and culvert project is expected to rebid in 2026. Sites near Fullerton, Monango and Forbes use county roads. Give us an address or coordinates, the nearest paved road, any gravel road at the end, and any gate, culvert or bridge on the way, because a long trailer needs a firm, level approach and room to turn. Place a shower trailer, restroom trailer or combination unit on high, well-drained ground close to its water and power connections. Ask the county or the Department of Transportation about closures before you schedule delivery. We confirm the route in your quote. Measure the gate, the turn into the site and any overhead lines before delivery, because a long trailer cannot back out of a tight lot. Mark the intended spot with cones or flags, and tell the driver about soft ground, ditches or buried lines, so the unit goes in once and stays level.
Climate and seasonal rental needs
Wind and flash floods set the summer in Ellendale, as the June 2022 wind and the July 2018 rain show. FEMA lists Dickey County for flooding in 2020 and 2023 and for winter storms in 2022 and December 2023. The statewide winter described on our North Dakota page, with a January average near 10.6 degrees Fahrenheit and cold snaps far below zero, applies here too. In cold weather a shower trailer or restroom trailer needs heat, freeze protection and a plowed approach, and in summer it should be set up with storms in mind. Give us your dates, and we will say what a combination unit needs. Ask early, because repair work often needs a unit on short notice. Frozen ground and snow change how a trailer is set up, and heavy rain can soften a gravel pad that was firm last week. Plan the approach for the weather you expect rather than the weather you hope for, and keep a plow or loader on call.
Planning a rental
A short checklist saves time. Say how many people will use the unit and whether they need showers, toilets or both, so we can match a shower trailer, a restroom trailer or a luxury combination trailer. Say whether anyone needs an accessible suite, because only our ADA combination trailers include one. Describe the site: ground, slope, nearest road and how close water and power are. Give the start date and how long you need the unit, because rates change by rental length. Tell us about flood risk and winter access. Tell us whether you are a contractor, a school, a public agency or an industrial site, because we rent to commercial and industrial customers only. With those answers we return a quote that shows the unit, the rate, delivery, setup and pickup. If a detail is not known yet, say so and we will ask what we need. We do not promise a response time before the quote.
