Cheese Plant ADA Remodel

The Project

In rural St. Cloud, Wisconsin, a national cheese producer's processing plant was being remodeled while the facility stayed in operation. A regional general contractor was running the buildout, and the construction and operations workforce needed reliable, code-compliant restroom capacity on site for the full duration of the project — a multi-month spring–summer remodel window.

The general contractor brought the requirement to Stahla. It was not the first time the two companies had worked together, which set the tone for how the engagement came together.

The Challenge

The project bid was specific: it called for ADA-compliant restroom trailers with a defined stall count. That requirement is harder to satisfy than it sounds, especially at a rural plant outside St. Cloud, Wisconsin, where suitable ADA inventory is not locally abundant.

Standard restroom trailers wouldn't clear the bid. The contractor needed ADA-rated units, in the right configuration, delivered and serviced on a working construction site that sat alongside an active food-processing operation — a setting where cleanliness and dependable servicing aren't optional.

What Stahla Delivered

Stahla supplied two ADA-compliant restroom trailers sized to meet the bid's stall requirement: a 3-stall ADA unit paired with a 5-stall ADA unit. Together they delivered the accessible stall count the project called for, rather than forcing the contractor to compromise on the spec or wait on scarce single-unit inventory.

The scope went beyond drop-off. Stahla handled mobilization and demobilization for each trailer and ran a structured pump-out servicing program covering both weekday and weekend/holiday cadences — so the units stayed clean and functional across the entire remodel window with the contractor managing a single point of contact.

Execution

Meeting the ADA spec on a rural site took coordination, not just inventory. Stahla paired its own ADA restroom-trailer inventory with a vendor-sourced ADA unit to assemble the exact configuration the bid demanded, and lined up local pump-out servicing to keep the recurring schedule covered.

That combination — the right ADA pairing plus mobilization, demobilization, and a weekday/weekend service routine — turned a hard-to-source requirement into a turnkey package. The contractor handed Stahla a spec and got back a complete, serviced solution.

The Result

This engagement was deployed for the plant's remodel, so its real proof point is the execution itself and the relationship behind it. Stahla had already served this same general contractor on prior 2024 Wisconsin jobs. When a tougher, ADA-spec'd, food-processing remodel came up, the contractor came back to Stahla.

That repeat business is the signal. A contractor with options chose the partner who had delivered before — and trusted Stahla to solve a stricter requirement on a less convenient site. The work is structured to run cleanly across the full spring–summer window, with servicing built in from day one.

Why Stahla

Stahla wins this kind of work by solving the spec, not just filling an order. When the bid demanded a specific ADA stall count that local inventory couldn't easily meet, Stahla engineered the answer by pairing two ADA units and bundled mobilization, demobilization, and scheduled servicing into one package the contractor didn't have to manage piece by piece.

Underneath that is consistency. A general contractor that had worked with Stahla on earlier projects returned for a higher-stakes one — proof that reliable delivery and full-service follow-through earn the next job, even on rural sites where logistics are harder and the requirements are stricter.
