Center, CO Temporary Commercial Kitchen Rental and Lease Options

Temporary modular kitchens are how Center facilities keep serving through a closure. A modular commercial kitchen rental brings the cooking line to the site, with kitchen setup for renovations planned around your schedule. If the work spills into Monte Vista, 12 miles from here, or into Del Norte, 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 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 24ft Mobile Kitchen and 38ft Mobile Kitchen are the models to compare first, each with its listed equipment and electrical requirements.

Expect requests in Center from nursing homes, municipal agencies, disaster-response teams and manufacturers. A nursing home kitchen rental is a typical first conversation, followed by questions about power, water and placement. Pagosa Springs (about 1,793 residents) and Cañon City (about 17,193 residents) each have their own mix of hospitals, schools and plants, but the reasons they rent line up.

CMS lists no hospital in Saguache County; the nearest county with one is Rio Grande County, about 40 miles away. The National Center for Education Statistics counts 8 public schools with about 942 students, in districts such as Center Consolidated School District No. 26 Jt. Of The Count, Moffat School District No. 2 In The County Of Saguache And and Mountain Valley School District No. Re 1.

• Disaster Response Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Food Service: feeding responders, crews and displaced staff after an incident
• Manufacturing Plant Cafeteria Kitchen Rentals: cafeteria renovation across multiple shifts

If the dish room is closed too, add a warewashing trailer. The 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer needs 220V, single phase, 150A; plan a drain route sized for continuous washing. Poncha Springs, 53 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.

A failed walk-in freezer is a race against thawing. Call the 24-hour line for an emergency refrigerated trailer; the 20ft Cooler Trailer, 32°F lists 220V, single phase, 40 to 60A and a standard receptacle. In Salida, where Chaffee County has 3 federal declarations on record, the call for emergency refrigeration begins the same way.

A typical January night in Saguache County drops to 7°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 75°F, and the county gets about 16 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 6 degrees colder than the average Colorado county. With nights that cold, a kitchen trailer needs heated or insulated water lines, and a refrigerated trailer should not be asked to hold product warm against freezing air.

Sites near Florence and Gunnison start from this same list, then adjust for their own pad, power and permits.

• Contacts: name the person who will meet the delivery and the person who will approve the setup.
• Supplies: mark a drop point for food and paper goods that keeps carts away from utility lines.
• Access steps: ramp setup takes about 4 to 6 hours and stairs 5 to 15 minutes, so say early if the door needs either.

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