Lake Elsinore, CA Mobile Commercial Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Cold Storage

Emergency food service in Lake Elsinore often starts with one question: where will the next meal be cooked? A commercial kitchen trailer on a level pad gives the answer while the permanent kitchen is out of action. If the work spills into Canyon Lake, 4 miles from here, or into Wildomar, a kitchen rented here can be planned around both sites.

Kitchens in the fleet run from the 24ft Mobile Kitchen up to the 40ft Bulk Combo Kitchen. For a site like this one, the 40ft Mobile Kitchen, 28ft Mobile Kitchen and 40ft Bulk Kitchen are the models to compare first, each with its listed equipment and electrical requirements.

Warewashing is easy to overlook until the dish room is the thing that is down. Dishwashing trailers like the 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer and the 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer can be rented with a kitchen or on their own for Lake Elsinore sites. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Perris, 10 miles from here, as it does here.

When a compressor quits, product loss follows within hours. Emergency refrigerated trailers, such as the 20ft Cooler Trailer, 32°F, are rented to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and institutions around Lake Elsinore. A walk-in that fails in Murrieta starts the same clock on the stock inside.

Climate normals for Riverside County run from an average January low of 42°F to an average July high of 101°F, with roughly 8 inches of precipitation yearly. January lows run about 6 degrees warmer than the average California county. At those temperatures a refrigerated trailer's condenser needs clear airflow, and shade or a short pad near a building helps both cooling and the crews working beside it.

Moving the job to Temecula or Corona changes the pad and the paperwork; the list below stays the same.

• Power: check the panel and service against the trailer's listed requirement before anything is scheduled.
• People: decide who meets the driver, who signs off the setup and who calls us if something changes.
• Pad and access: a level area, a clear approach for the trailer length and room for food deliveries.
