Stratton, CO Mobile Commercial Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Cold Storage

For Stratton, a modular kitchen trailer brings griddles, ranges, ovens, sinks and refrigeration in one unit instead of rebuilding them piece by piece. If the work spills into Burlington, 18 miles from here, or into Yuma, a kitchen rented here can be planned around both sites.

Match the trailer to the menu: the 24ft Mobile Kitchen for a focused cooking line, the 38ft Mobile Kitchen for more production room, and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen where bulk cooking or a walk-in cooler matters. Power requirements are shown on every page.

If the dish room is closed too, add a warewashing trailer. The 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer needs 220V, single phase, 220A; plan a drain route sized for continuous washing. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Limon, 58 miles from here, as it does here.

When a compressor quits, product loss follows within hours. Emergency refrigerated trailers, such as the 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer, are rented to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and institutions around Stratton. In Akron, where Washington County has 11 federal declarations on record, the call for emergency refrigeration begins the same way.

A typical January night in Kit Carson County drops to 17°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 90°F, and the county gets about 17 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 4 degrees warmer 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.

Our industry pages explain what each group usually needs and how a rental is planned around it. Care homes in Deer Trail and school kitchens in Lamar, places of about 1,624 residents and about 7,641 residents, lose their lines for different reasons, but the rental that answers them is the same.
