Kiowa, CO Temporary Commercial Kitchen Rental and Lease Options

Operations around Kiowa that cannot pause food service can lease a mobile commercial kitchen for a week, a month or the length of a long renovation. A project that crosses into Elizabeth (about 2,773 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.

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.

Dishwashing trailers cover the other half of the line for Kiowa facilities: low-temperature and high-temperature machines, push-through and conveyor styles, in several lengths. Start with the 30ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer. Castle Pines, 24 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 Lone Tree, where Douglas County has 11 federal declarations on record, the call for emergency refrigeration begins the same way.

NOAA's 1991 to 2020 county normals put the average January low in Elbert County at 14°F and the average July high at 87°F, with about 17 inches of precipitation a year. July highs run about 5 degrees hotter than the average Colorado county. Hard freezes are routine, so the water hookup is planned with heat tape or an insulated hose, and wastewater lines are kept from freezing between uses.

Rental customers in Kiowa are commercial, institutional and public: disaster-response teams, construction crews, municipal agencies and nursing homes. Each has its own pressure points, from a emergency commercial kitchen rental during a remodel to keeping staff fed through a long project. Bennett (about 3,916 residents) and Centennial (about 108,853 residents) each have their own mix of hospitals, schools and plants, but the reasons they rent line up.

CMS lists no hospital in Elbert County; the nearest county with one is Arapahoe County, about 26 miles away.

• Water: arrange a potable water supply and a hookup point within reach of the trailer.
• Access steps: ramp setup takes about 4 to 6 hours and stairs 5 to 15 minutes, so say early if the door needs either.
