Specifications by quote
Standard kitchens, the 24ft, 28ft, 38ft, and 40ft, cover conventional meal production with a 6-burner range and oven, a griddle and oven combination, convection ovens, and reach-in refrigeration. Combo kitchens add a walk-in cooler, which matters when the building's walk-in is part of the renovation. Bulk kitchens bring the tilting skillet and double-stack ovens institutional cooks use for hundreds of meals at once.
Need warewashing too? Most kitchens using reusable trays pair the kitchen with one of our dishwashing trailer rentals.
Start with how many meals you serve in each period, your menu, and your staff. A cafeteria program in Marion serving one lunch period works well from a 28ft kitchen; a campus dining program like those in Lexington or Williamsburg usually needs a 40ft kitchen with a dish trailer. We will recommend a size once we know your numbers.
A quote covers the equipment, rental period, delivery, setup, and pickup for your location. An inquiry does not reserve equipment; availability is confirmed when you accept a quote.
A temporary kitchen only works if it can cook your menu at your volume from the first day. We size the trailer to your meal periods and plan its power, water, and placement before delivery.
Placement and utilities are confirmed in advance, so cooking can start as soon as setup is done.
Kitchen fires and failures do not wait for business hours, and neither does our 24/7 line.
We help you plan the kitchen, dish trailer, and cold storage as one food service layout.
Rent by the week for an emergency or lease by the month for a long rebuild.
Commercial ranges, convection ovens, fryers, and tilting skillets built for institutional cooking.
We coordinate delivery windows, stairs or ramps, and pickup around your construction schedule.
Local conditions
Past emergency
From January 6 to 11, 2025, Richmond and parts of Henrico, Hanover, and Goochland were under a boil water advisory after a storm knocked out power at the city's water plant. In a crisis like that, a mobile kitchen trailer running on tanked potable water could have kept patient and student meals cooking.
Major construction
VDOT's Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel expansion is scheduled for substantial completion in February 2027, and school projects such as the W.C. Taylor Middle School addition in Warrenton run through 2026. On long projects, crews and nearby institutional kitchens can be fed from a mobile kitchen trailer.
Major renovation
Emergency equipment access
Statewide emergency operations are coordinated from the Virginia Emergency Operations Center (VEOC) at 7700 Midlothian Turnpike, North Chesterfield, VA 23235, with county and city emergency managers coordinating locally. Our deliveries are separate from public emergency logistics and travel the I-81, I-64, I-95, and I-66 corridors; we confirm your site access before dispatch.
Local rental costs
Kitchen trailers start at $4,995 / month on our current price list, one list for every Virginia location. Your quote adds delivery, setup, and pickup. See all rental prices.
Kitchen fire, flooded dish room, or a walk-in freezer that quit overnight? Call our 24/7 line and have your Virginia site address, the meals or storage you need to cover, and the power and water available on site. We will help you match a mobile kitchen, dishwashing, or refrigerated trailer to the problem.
Setup takes about 5 hours for kitchen trailers once the unit is on site and utilities are ready. Stairs add 5 to 15 minutes; a ramp adds about 4 to 6 hours.
Our 24ft and 28ft kitchens list 220V single-phase at 200 amps; the 38ft and 40ft kitchens list 200 to 220 amps. The all-electric kitchen's requirements are confirmed with each quote.
Yes. Rentals start at weekly terms for emergencies and short projects, and monthly leases cover longer renovations.
Every listed kitchen includes reach-in refrigeration and freezer space; combo and bulk kitchens add a walk-in cooler. For more cold storage, add a refrigerated trailer.
