Shelley at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Idaho Falls Fanning Fld, ID station, about 10 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Bingham County in the Cold climate region (IECC 2021 zone 6B, PNNL county guide). Winters in this region are long enough that freezing, not heat, is usually the main limit on units that carry water.
Dry, Windy Sites
Only about 10 inches of precipitation falls in an average year, in the driest tenth of U.S. places in our data. Dry ground usually holds a truck and a wheelchair well, but open, dry sites can get windy and dusty: ask for units to be staked or tied down on exposed ground.
Freezing Nights
About 182 nights a year drop to 32°F or below, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so freezing weather covers a large part of the year. Anything that holds fresh water freezes first: hand-wash stations, deluxe flush tanks and trailer plumbing. For winter dates, ask for winterized units or a heated restroom trailer, or plan on sanitizer.
Summer Hot Spells
About 26 days a year reach 90°F, fewer than most U.S. places in our data; hot spells come and go rather than lasting all summer. If your dates land in a hot spell, ask for an extra service visit on multi-day rentals and keep hand-wash stations topped up.
Job Sites and Home Projects
Homes From the 1970s and 1980s
The median year built for Shelley's housing is 1976 (ACS 2020–2024), older than most U.S. places in our data. Housing from that era is now 35 to 55 years old; crews replacing roofs, windows or mechanical systems on it need a toilet on site like any other crew.
Housing Mix
The most common housing type is detached houses, about 68% of units (higher than most U.S. places in our data), followed by two- to four-unit buildings at about 13% (ACS 2020–2024). Detached houses usually have a driveway or yard where a crew's unit can stand within reach of the service truck. In small multi-unit buildings where tenants stay in place during work, put the crew's unit where it does not block a shared entrance. About 75% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (higher than most U.S. places in our data); for a rented home, the landlord's OK comes before the unit.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 sets the floor: one toilet for up to 20 workers, then a seat and a urinal per 40 (per 50 at 200 or more). More on sizing: construction rentals in Idaho.
Events, Weddings and Parties
An all-day festival for 5,000 people over six hours needs 38 units on the PSAI event chart, or 42 to 46 with alcohol (PSAI adds 10–20%). Every cluster of restrooms needs at least 5% accessible units, rounded up; hard, dry ground usually works as the route to the ADA unit, loose sand or gravel does not.
Cold, not heat, limits the outdoor season: from late fall into spring, ask for a heated restroom trailer or units that do not depend on running water. At open-field events on dry, exposed ground, ask for units to be staked. More: event rentals in Idaho and wedding restrooms in Idaho.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
Shelley is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land, or a unit that will stand on a street, sidewalk or in a park, ask the Shelley city government before you book what applies.
