Livingston, CA Mobile Commercial Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Cold Storage

Dishwashing trailers cover the other half of the line for Livingston facilities: low-temperature and high-temperature machines, push-through and conveyor styles, in several lengths. Start with the 30ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer. Hughson, 17 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.

Refrigeration is an emergency. When a walk-in cooler or freezer breaks down in Livingston, stock starts to warm immediately, so an emergency refrigerated trailer such as the 20ft Cooler Trailer, 32°F gives product somewhere cold to go. In Newman, where Stanislaus County has 18 federal declarations on record, the call for emergency refrigeration begins the same way.

A typical January night in Merced County drops to 39°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 94°F, and the county gets about 12 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 3 degrees warmer than the average California county. Little rain does not make site planning simple; water in and wastewater out still decide whether a temporary kitchen can open.

Sites in Ceres, 20 miles away, and Modesto use the same checklist; only the pad and the paperwork change.

• People: decide who meets the driver, who signs off the setup and who calls us if something changes.
• Entry: tell us if the door needs a ramp or stairs; the setup times differ.
• Food deliveries: plan where suppliers will unload so they do not block the trailer door.

Read the site planning section before you fix a delivery date.
