Sheridan, CO Mobile Commercial Kitchen Trailer Rentals
A closed kitchen in Sheridan does not have to close meal service: we rent mobile commercial kitchens, with commercial dishwashing and emergency refrigerated trailers to back them up. Use us for emergency meal service during sudden outages as well as planned kitchen renovations and construction projects. Short-term and long-term rentals run from one week to monthly terms. Construction crews, municipal agencies and disaster-response teams are among the customers we rent to. Delivery, placement and setup are planned with your site team, including power and water. Ask for availability and a quote for Sheridan, or for a project in Englewood.

Commercial kitchen trailers for Sheridan
Emergency food service in Sheridan 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. Englewood is only 1 mile away, with about 35,238 residents, and Columbine Valley about 3 miles, so a project that spans them can share one kitchen plan.
Sizing starts with how many meals you serve. The 28ft Mobile Kitchen and 38ft Mobile Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 24ft Mobile Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.

Local conditions and rental planning in Sheridan
Past emergencies and recovery needs in Sheridan
Since 1965, Arapahoe County has been named in 10 FEMA declarations; flooding (5 declarations) and snowstorm (2 declarations) lead the list. Englewood has its own page with its county's federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.
The most recent is Severe Storms, Flooding, and Tornadoes (major disaster declaration, DR-4731), declared August 25, 2023, with the incident beginning June 8, 2023. Floodwater can contaminate kitchen equipment and force closures until cleanup and inspection are finished, which is when replacement cooking, dishwashing and cold storage matter. By incident type, the count is flooding 5, snowstorm 2, coastal storm 1, wildfire 1 and tornado 1. By decade: 1960s 2, 1970s 1, 2000s 4, 2010s 2 and 2020s 1. Earlier declarations include Severe Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4145, September 14, 2013), Severe Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (EM-3365, September 12, 2013), Snow (EM-3270, January 7, 2007), Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3224, September 5, 2005) and Snow (EM-3185, April 9, 2003).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 71 county-based event records for Arapahoe County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 64 of them, flood events for 7. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a flash flood in July 2018, with about $500,000 in property damage. Storm winds mean outages measured in days in some places, so the generator question belongs in the plan from the start.
NIFC lists no wildfire of 1,000 acres or more starting in Arapahoe County since 2016. Smoke and power shutoffs travel farther than fires do, though: the nearest large fire on record began in Adams County, about 16 miles away, where the Shamrock fire burned 1,526 acres in 2020.
FEMA declarations apply to designated areas and do not say which individual buildings were affected.
Construction projects and crew meals near Sheridan
USASpending.gov lists 67 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more with work in Arapahoe County since October 2021, worth about $130 million together. The Department of Defense committed $31 million to “Construction Joint Cryptologic Center” in Arapahoe County, awarded May 2023 (award record). Another public record is “Construct Corrosion Control Facility Crwu 13-3039,” a $13 million Department of Defense contract from October 2024 in Arapahoe County (award record). In July 2025, the Department of Defense awarded a $9.7 million contract for “Redundant Electrical Supply, Buckley SFB, Colorado” in Arapahoe County, with work running to July 2027 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $6.6 million Department of Defense contract, “Mill and Overlay Basewide II,” starting November 2023 in Arapahoe County (award record). Work like this puts crews on a site for months, often far from a restaurant, and the meals become a logistics question before the first shift starts. A project in Columbine Valley, about 1,683 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.
Major renovation in Sheridan
The Department of the Interior committed $15 million to “Green Mountain Powerplant Penstock Rehabilitation Colorado-Big Thompson Project, Colorado” in Arapahoe County, awarded January 2022 (award record). Another public record is “Repair by Replace Power Plant Controls,” a $7.6 million Department of Defense contract from November 2020 in Arapahoe County (award record). In February 2024, the Department of Defense awarded a $7.4 million contract for “Replace HVAC in Bldg. 430 - Buckley SFB, CO” in Arapahoe County, with work running to April 2026 (award record). Cherry Hills Village is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.
Emergency equipment access around Sheridan
The Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in Colorado. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. For work in Littleton, look to the agencies covering Jefferson County rather than assuming the same routes.
Denver Springs is the nearest hospital CMS lists, in Englewood, about 1 mile from Sheridan in a straight line.
What a kitchen rental costs in Sheridan
There is no single price for every job in Sheridan. Equipment, rental term, delivery and site conditions all change it. As a guide, prices start at the 40ft Bulk Kitchen from $10,995, the 38ft Mobile Kitchen from $7,995 and the 24ft Mobile Kitchen from $4,995, and they may vary. A kitchen for Glendale, 6 miles from here, is built from the same quote, with delivery adjusted for the address.
Starting prices are guides, and prices may vary with location, rental length, delivery, setup and utilities. A written quote states the equipment, the rental period and what is included.

Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Sheridan
Warewashing is easy to overlook until the dish room is the thing that is down. Dishwashing trailers like the 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer and the 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer can be rented with a kitchen or on their own for Sheridan sites. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Littleton, 4 miles from here, as it does here.
Emergency refrigeration for Sheridan means cold storage that arrives as a trailer. The 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer is one of three 20ft temperature configurations, subject to availability for your location. A walk-in that fails in Glendale starts the same clock on the stock inside.
NOAA's 1991 to 2020 county normals put the average January low in Arapahoe County at 16°F and the average July high at 89°F, with about 16 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 3 degrees warmer 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.
