was thinking about getting an enclosed car hauler and converting it by putting cabinets sinks and the works inside. Not sure if it will pass the health inspection people.

First step is to talk to your Health Department to understand their requirements.

If the trailer has a water closet, that is probably not going to fly, just so you know.

Except in Connecticut where they loved the idea. I went to them when I was gutting mine because I could use the extra space for all sosrts fo things. The guy doing the inspection said "why? I always get worried about trailers concessionaires wondering where they are going to the bathroom. In a pickle jar?" He had one requirement, that the black water and gray water had separate tanks, which they did already. Afterward in the inspection I had to switch the trailer dump to the service side and keep the water inlet on the opposite side.

My unit has a shower as well.

BUT CHECK WITH YOUR hd FIRST.
