Del Norte, CO Commercial Kitchen Trailers for Rent

A mobile kitchen trailer rental in Del Norte puts a complete commercial cooking line beside the building that needs it, so a closed kitchen does not have to mean closed meal service. Monte Vista is only 13 miles away, with about 4,030 residents, and Center about 14 miles, so a project that spans them can share one kitchen plan.

Common choices include the 24ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A), the 38ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200 to 220A) and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A). Each model page lists the equipment and the electrical service.

Warewashing is easy to overlook until the dish room is the thing that is down. Dishwashing trailers like the 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer and the 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer can be rented with a kitchen or on their own for Del Norte sites. Pagosa Springs, 46 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.

When a compressor quits, product loss follows within hours. Emergency refrigerated trailers, such as the 20ft LT Refrigerated Trailer, are rented to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and institutions around Del Norte. Poncha Springs sits in Chaffee County, which has 3 federal declarations on record; a walk-in that fails there starts the same clock on the stock inside.
