BUILDING STRUCTURES

We offer three pre-fab buildings: the Poobah (made in USA), the Wishbone (made in Canada) and the Pan Abode (made in USA cedar). Custom or site-built options exist, but these tend to be more expensive to build and maintain than our pre-fab and warrantied products.

THE POOBAH & GRAND POOBAH

The Poobah is Toilet Tech's strongest prefab metal frame building. We designed it to withstand the heavy-duty rubbing of buffalo at Antelope Island State Park, Utah. This building package is suitable for both toilet types (Decompose and Waste Away) and comes in two sizes (regular and ADA). We offer single stalls or joined blocks (wall-sharing) connecting up to 5 stalls. We offer a classic gable roof architecture or a shed roof. This building can withstand a high snow load.

Benefits: Heavy-duty; prefab; 4-season use, high snow load

Drawbacks: Not as light or easy to assemble as Wishbone John

Site Suitability: Winter use sites, high snow load, trail heads, back-country

WISHBONE - STANDARD AND ADA

We are all about reusing waste as much as we are about minimizing it. Our Wishbone prefab building frames are made from extruded aluminum and use recycled plastic or cedar wall boards. These buildings are available for both toilet types  (Decompose, and Waste Away) and come in two sizes (regular and ADA). We offer single stalls or joined blocks (wall-sharing) connecting up to 5 stalls. We offer a classic gable roof architecture or a shed roof. This building can withstand a low snow load.

Benefits: Long-lasting (40+ years), prefab, lightweight; erects in a few hours with basic hand tools; will not rot, corrode, fade; multiple color options

Drawbacks: Not made of concrete (but we think concrete toilets are pretty ugly), Not suitable for high snow load

Site Suitability: City parks, parking lots, trail heads, back-country

Warranty: Wall boards - 50 years;  Frame - 5 years

Drawbacks: Higher cost
