Guangzhou Movable Public Toilets

Admin October 10, 2026

Guangzhou has conducted multi-dimensional exploration and practice in movable public toilets, covering aspects such as tidal toilets, procurement projects, reference to smart public toilets, and market product supply.

Innovative Application of Tidal Toilets

A scenic spot in Guangdong has introduced tidal toilets, which dynamically adjust the space ratio between men's and women's toilets through movable partitions, effectively alleviating the problem of long queues for women's toilets during peak hours. For example, during the tourist season or large-scale events, part of the men's toilet area can be temporarily converted into women's toilets based on real-time foot traffic, improving resource utilization efficiency. However, initially, there was an issue where the partition signs could be easily moved, leading to confusion between areas and raising privacy and safety concerns. The scenic spot promptly rectified the situation by replacing the movable signs with fixed ones and standardizing the tidal switching process to ensure safe and orderly use.

Advancement of Government Procurement Projects

The Guangzhou Municipal Administration and Law Enforcement Bureau has launched a procurement project for elderly-friendly facilities and movable toilets in public toilets (project number: 202512 - 184098 - 0321), with a total budget of 777,000 yuan, of which the budget for the movable toilet procurement package is 485,000 yuan. The project requires the completion of installation, commissioning, and acceptance within 60 calendar days after contract signing, covering the entire process of design, transportation, and installation. This move reflects the government's emphasis on the large-scale and standardized deployment of movable toilets, aiming to improve the coverage and emergency response capabilities of public toilets.

Reference to Smart Public Toilet Technologies

Guangzhou Zhongqi Technology Co., Ltd., a benchmark enterprise in the field of smart public toilets, offers solutions covering transportation hubs, scenic parks, and other scenarios. Through technologies such as the Internet of Things and big data, it achieves functions like environmental monitoring, resource management, and user feedback. Although it does not directly involve movable toilets, its intelligent management system (such as toilet stall guidance, air quality control, and energy consumption optimization) can provide a technological path for the upgrading of movable toilets, for example, by using sensors to monitor usage status in real-time and dynamically adjusting resource allocation.

Diversified Supply of Market Products

The market for movable public toilets in Guangzhou offers a wide variety of types, with significant price differences based on configurations. For example, the simple dry toilet mobile public toilet from Guangzhou Haoyuan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. is priced at 2,300 yuan, suitable for temporary events or construction sites; the high-end outdoor scenic spot eco-friendly restroom (including shower function) is priced at 4,800 yuan, meeting the diverse needs of scenic spots and parks. The product materials include metal, plastic, etc., and the configurations include ventilation systems, lighting equipment, barrier-free facilities, etc. Users can choose according to their budget and usage scenarios.
