The Most Reasonable Size of Mobile Toilets

Admin October 05, 2026

The most reasonable size of mobile toilets should be determined based on the usage scenario and functional requirements. The following are common specifications and design points:

I. Common Sizes Classified by the Number of Users

  1. Single-User Type The regular size is 1.1 meters in length, 1.1 meters in width, and 2.3 meters in height, suitable for ordinary parks, temporary sites on construction sites, or small event venues. The mini size is 1.0 meter in length, 1.0 meter in width, and 2.2 meters in height, often used in small exhibitions or commercial streets with heavy foot traffic. In addition, the standard size range is 1.2-1.5 meters in length, 1.0-1.2 meters in width, and 2.2-2.5 meters in height, which can meet the needs of construction sites, small events, and other scenarios.

  2. Double-User Type The regular size is 1.8 meters in length, 1.1 meters in width, and 2.3 meters in height, which can accommodate two people simultaneously and is suitable for team-building venues or outdoor camping areas. The standard size range is 2.4-3.0 meters in length, 1.2-1.5 meters in width, and 2.2-2.5 meters in height, applicable to high-traffic scenarios such as large events or tourist attractions.

  3. Barrier-Free Type The size is usually 1.8 meters in length, 1.5 meters in width, and 2.4 meters in height. It requires reserved space for wheelchair rotation to facilitate use by people with mobility impairments and is commonly found in public areas such as large parks or entrance areas of scenic spots.

  4. Multi-Functional Type The size range is 3.0-4.5 meters in length, 2.0-2.5 meters in width, and 2.5-3.0 meters in height, suitable for high-end events or long-term fixed venues. It can integrate additional functions such as sinks and storage cabinets.

II. Key Design Parameters

  1. Toilet Cubicle Width: According to the Urban Public Toilet Design Standard (CJJ 14-2016), the internal net width of a toilet cubicle should be no less than 0.9 meters to ensure sufficient space for users.
  2. Sink Height: It is recommended to be set at 0.8-0.9 meters to accommodate both adults and children.
  3. Height Design: The height of regular mobile toilets is 2.2-2.5 meters, and multi-functional types can be extended to 3.0 meters. Ventilation, lighting, and equipment installation requirements need to be considered.

III. Selection Basis

  1. Usage Scenario: For temporary events, modular and easy-to-disassemble single-user or double-user types are preferred; for long-term fixed venues, multi-functional types can be selected.
  2. Foot Traffic: Larger spaces need to be reserved in high-traffic areas to avoid queuing congestion; barrier-free facilities should be configured proportionally.
  3. Functional Requirements: Whether there is a need to integrate sinks, baby-changing tables, or smart devices directly affects the size design.

IV. Compliance Requirements All size designs should comply with the Urban Public Toilet Design Standard (CJJ 14-2016) to ensure the completeness of supporting facilities such as barrier-free access and safety signs.
