Fair week at McHenry
The Garrett County Agriculture Fair has run from late July into early August, for example July 29 to August 5 in 2023. The grounds are in McHenry, so this is a county-wide delivery rather than an Accident one.

Restrooms and showers for sites in Accident that have none
Accident, on U.S. 219 in Garrett County, is known first for its name, which traces to a survey mix-up told in more than one version. The town was patented in 1786 and incorporated in 1916, and two of its buildings are on the National Register: the James Drane House and Kaese Mill. Friends Stockyard, a long-running livestock auction on Stockyard Road, was damaged by fire in January 2025, and the county fair at the McHenry fairgrounds draws rural visitors every summer.
A shower trailer rental here means private stalls with hot water; a restroom trailer rental means flush toilets and sinks. Combination trailers put all three in each stall, with an ADA stall when you need one.
Local sites near Accident
Friends Stockyard (livestock auction hit by a January 2025 fire; confirm current sale status), Garrett County Agriculture Fair (held at the McHenry fairgrounds in late July or early August), Accident Fourth of July festival (fire department parade and games reported since 1989; confirm current format), and James Drane House and Kaese Mill (national Register sites that bring heritage visitors to town).
Permits and rules in Accident
Accident is incorporated, yet the county does much of the zoning work. Garrett County's Accident zoning page says most structures or changes of use need a zoning permit reviewed by county Planning and Land Management staff, most also need a building permit from the county's Permits and Inspection Services, and approved zoning permits go to Town Hall for fee payment. How a temporary trailer is treated was not stated, so confirm with Town Hall. Portable-toilet rules from the Garrett County Health Department were not verified.
- Zoning permits are reviewed by county staff, then handled at Town Hall.
- Building permits come from county Permits and Inspection Services.
- Temporary food events go through the county health department's Environmental Health Services.
Make one call to Town Hall first and ask which office, town or county, needs your site details, then follow with the health department if food service is involved.
Permit office: Town of Accident Town Hall (zoning reviewed by Garrett County)
County office: Garrett County Department of Planning & Land Management, Permits & Inspections Division, Oakland
County health: Garrett County Health Department, Environmental Health Services, Oakland.
Permit rules and event dates change, so confirm current requirements with the office before you order. Water and power hookups are confirmed in your quote. For federal and state basics (OSHA, ADA, wastewater) read the Maryland rules guide.
Two-step town and county review
In Accident the paperwork path is split. The county's published summary says zoning permits for structures and changes of use are reviewed by Planning and Land Management staff, that a building permit from the county's Permits and Inspection Services usually follows, and that fees for approved zoning permits are paid at Town Hall. A temporary trailer may fall outside all of that, but nothing published says so. One call to Town Hall, with the lot location and rental dates ready, should show which office wants details.
Fair week and county-wide traffic
The Garrett County Agriculture Fair is a week-long event in late July or early August, held in McHenry. Exhibitors, livestock families and day visitors come from across the county, including from the Accident area. If your gathering is tied to fair week, plan with the fair organizers, not the town, and confirm the year's dates early, because 2026 listings gave conflicting week ranges.

Jobs and events in Accident that call for a trailer
Independence Day homecoming
Accident's volunteer fire department has long held a July 4 festival with a parade, games and rescue demonstrations. Packed afternoons around the fire hall are the kind of setting where a trailer relieves pressure.
Stockyard sale days and repairs
A livestock auction brings truck and trailer traffic on sale days, and a fire-damaged site can bring construction crews. Either situation can call for washrooms where permanent plumbing is limited, depending on its current status.

Renting in Accident: common questions
Is the Garrett County fair in Accident, and who permits a trailer there?
The fair is held at the Garrett County Fairgrounds in McHenry, not in Accident, so Accident Town Hall is not the contact for it. Ask the fair organizers about trailer placement; the 2023 fair ran July 29 to August 5, and 2026 listings disagreed on dates.
Do We need an Accident permit to place a trailer for a private event on our property?
The county's zoning summary for Accident says most structures and changes of use need a zoning permit, but it does not say how a short-term trailer is handled. Call Town Hall, say whether the lot is inside town limits, and ask whether the county zoning staff need to see it.
Do you offer long-term restroom trailer rental or leasing in Accident?
Yes. Construction sites, renovations and seasonal operations use long-term rental and leasing. Monthly rates are on the rental prices page and the final price is set in your quote.
Do you deliver restroom and shower trailers to Accident, MD?
Yes. ADA-accessible restroom trailers, shower trailers and shower and restroom combination trailers go to Accident and the rest of Garrett County. Send the address and dates and the quote confirms trailer, delivery and price.
