Custom-built mobile units · Gabane workshop

Mobile toilets, guard rooms & site units, built to order in Botswana.

Tshipiworks designs and builds custom mobile toilet trailers, portable toilet units, guard rooms and site offices for mining, construction, events, farms and security companies. Every unit is fabricated in our Gabane workshop to your cubicle count, layout and site, on a trailer or a skid.

  • ✓ Toilet trailers & portable units
  • ✓ Guard rooms & site offices
  • ✓ Trailer or skid-mounted

Why build to order

Units made for your site, not a catalogue.

Off-the-shelf portable toilets and containers rarely fit exactly what a mine, contractor or event needs. Because we design and weld the chassis, frame and fittings ourselves, we can set the number of cubicles, the plumbing, the steps, the windows and the towing setup around how the unit will actually be used and moved, and keep spares and repairs local.

01

Your layout

Number of cubicles, ladies/gents split, basins, rooms and doors to your brief.

02

Built to move

Galvanised trailer chassis with coupler and jockey wheel, or a skid base for crane or forklift.

03

Made for site use

Steel frame, durable panels, chequer-plate trims, rubber floor matting and reflective tape.

04

Local support

Fabricated in Gabane, so modifications, repairs and extra units are close by.

Options

What we can build into your unit.

Tell us how many people use the unit, how it gets water and power, and how often it moves. We will propose a layout and specification to quote.

Number of cubicles

Single, double or multi-cubicle mobile toilets, with separate ladies and gents, and basins inside or outside the cubicles. VIP / executive units can be fitted out with better finishes and more space.

Flush or chemical

Flush toilets with a waste outlet valve for connection or emptying, or chemical-style units where there is no water. We plan the plumbing around how the site handles waste.

Water tank and pump

An on-board water tank for flushing and hand-washing where there is no mains connection, sized to your use and refill schedule.

Lighting and solar

Interior lighting, with solar panel and battery options for remote sites without power.

Trailer or skid-mounted

Double-axle trailer with coupler and jockey wheel for units that move often; skid base for units placed by crane, forklift or truck.

Guard rooms and site offices

Mobile guard rooms (guard houses) with windows on the sides you need to watch, a lockable door and aircon prep; site offices with desk space, windows, power points prep and optional toilet. Containerised units can also be converted.

Recent project

Recent project: mobile toilet trailer for a mining client

We recently completed this trailer-mounted mobile toilet unit for a customer in the mining sector. It is built on a double-axle galvanised trailer with a jockey wheel and coupler, so the client can tow it between work areas.

The insulated white panel body has chequer-plate aluminium corner trims and chevron reflective tape for visibility on site. It has two cubicles marked ladies and gents. Each cubicle has a flush toilet, a pedestal basin with tap, a small aluminium window for light and ventilation, and rubber floor matting. Fold-down steel step ladders give access to each door and fold up for towing. A waste outlet valve at the rear handles emptying.

Need something similar, or a larger multi-cubicle version? Send us your requirements and we will adapt the design.

Where your project has specific health, safety, road or environmental requirements, send them with the brief and we will build to that specification and confirm what is included in the quote.

Buying a mobile unit

Mobile toilets for sale in Botswana: what to decide first.

These are the decisions that shape the design and the quote: how many people will use the unit each day; whether there is mains water, or it needs a tank; how waste will be handled; whether power is available, or solar is needed; how often it moves and on what roads; and whether it must match a tender specification.

We build units for sale to order; we do not currently run a hire fleet. Related work: steel carports and shade structures, aluminium windows and security fencing for site camps.

  4. STEP 4

Mobile Toilets & Site Units questions

Do you sell mobile toilets in Botswana?+

Yes. We build mobile toilet trailers and portable toilet units to order in our Gabane workshop and sell them to companies and individuals across Botswana.

Yes. Our recent mining unit is a two-cubicle toilet on a double-axle galvanised trailer with coupler, jockey wheel, fold-down steps and a waste outlet valve.

Both are possible. Flush units need water from mains or an on-board tank and a waste outlet; chemical-style units suit sites without water. We advise based on your site.

Can you build a mobile site office?+

Yes. Site offices can be sized for desks and storage, with windows, a door, electrical prep and an optional toilet cubicle.

How much does a mobile toilet unit cost?+

It depends on the number of cubicles, plumbing, water tank, solar, finishes and whether it is trailer or skid-mounted. We quote from your specification; we do not publish a price list.

Can you build to a tender specification?+

Yes. Send the tender specification or BOQ and we will price and build to it, and point out anything that needs clarification.
