Mobile Self-Service Toilet

A mobile self-service toilet, also known as a mobile toilet, is a facility that can be moved as a whole and provides toilet services to the public. The following is an introduction from the aspects of composition, classification, characteristics, usage methods, and prices:

Composition: It generally consists of a fecal sewage storage tank (or fecal sewage treatment device), floor slab, sanitary ware, walls, washing equipment, water tank, roof, and mobile device, etc.

Classification:

• By structural form: It can be divided into single-structure mobile toilets and composite-structure mobile toilets. The single-structure type is relatively independent and simple, while the composite-structure type may be composed of multiple parts and has richer functions.
• By moving method: There are lifting and handling-type mobile toilets, which rely on lifting equipment or manual handling for movement; and powered and trailer-type mobile toilets, which are moved with the help of power devices or vehicles.
• By sewage treatment method: It includes water-flushing and non-water-flushing suction-type mobile toilets. The former uses water for flushing, while the latter treats feces through suction; the circulating water-flushing type mobile toilet recycles water; and the dry-packing type mobile toilet packs feces for treatment.

Characteristics: It can be conveniently transported to any place where a toilet needs to be set up and can be used repeatedly. It has the advantages of being movable, combinable, and easy to transport. It originated from people's temporary and phased needs for toilets in specific situations. The government often sets it up in areas where it is relatively difficult to build fixed public toilets to make up for the insufficient supply and unreasonable layout of public toilets.

Usage methods: After entering the toilet, which has a small space of about one square meter, there is a squatting pan and a hand-washing faucet. There are two black balls below. After using the toilet, step on one of them, and the squatting pan will be flushed automatically; step on the other, and water will come out from the faucet for hand-washing. The toilet door has a bolt. When the bolt is pulled up, it shows that someone is inside; when it is pulled open, it shows that it is unoccupied.

Prices: The prices of mobile toilets vary depending on the type and manufacturer. For example, the price of the unmanned LED display intelligent restroom guidance management system for scenic spots and service areas from Xunpeng Smart Public Toilets is 5200.0 yuan; the price of the smart outdoor mobile toilet from Yueda Environmental Protection Equipment Manufacturing Factory in Dezhou Economic and Technological Development Zone is 788.5 yuan; and the price of the scenic spot mobile restroom, public toilet renovation, hand-washing room, smart outdoor park scenic spot environmental protection public restroom from Ganzhiju Integrated Housing (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd. is 1140.0 yuan, etc.
