Minesite Ablution Trailer

Facilities That Respect Your Whole Workforce

On many Australian mine sites, even the basics still get overlooked. One of the most common causes of non-productive downtime is crews queuing for toilets or, worse, female workers not having proper ablution facilities at all.

With women now making up around 25% of the mining workforce, these gaps stand out more than ever. It’s not just about comfort — it’s about dignity, fairness, and safety. When mine site toilets are inadequate, time is wasted, morale drops, and overall productivity takes a hit.

Keeping Your Crews Working, Not Waiting

A workforce only performs at full strength when every member has access to private, hygienic, and safe ablution facilities.   

Without them, you risk creating barriers for a quarter of your team. Long queues slow down operations, women are excluded from certain tasks, and workers step back from roles because they don’t feel respected or safe.   

The result is not only lost productivity but also higher staff turnover and greater difficulty in attracting and retaining skilled people.  

That’s where Minesite Ablution Trailers provide a practical solution. These relocatable ablution units — once known as mobile restrooms — are purpose-built for mine conditions

Available in both single and double cubicles, they are air-conditioned, private, and designed to handle high traffic.

For female workers, they provide dignity, privacy, and a safer, more welcoming environment.

For managers, they deliver fewer delays, better morale, and a stronger, more reliable workforce.

Deployment is rapid, often up to 50% faster than permanent ablution blocks, and units can be positioned exactly where they are needed most across the site.

To get the best results from your mobile ablution trailers, it’s important to plan early.

Match trailer numbers to crew size, position them close to active work zones, and decide in advance whether leasing or purchasing best suits your project. With the right setup, crews spend less time waiting and more time working.

Ablution gaps create unnecessary barriers that cost both time and trust. By providing Minesite Ablution Trailers, you give your workforce safe, private, and accessible facilities that ensure no one is left out.   

Every hour saved in queues and every barrier removed for women on site adds up to higher productivity, stronger safety outcomes, and a better team culture overall.
