Temporary kitchen rental for Blaine County
For Blaine County, a modular kitchen trailer brings griddles, ranges, ovens, sinks and refrigeration in one unit instead of rebuilding them piece by piece. A project that crosses into Hailey (about 9,976 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.
Common choices include the 28ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A), the 38ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200 to 220A) and the 24ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A). Each model page lists the equipment and the electrical service.
Before delivery, confirm the pad, the electrical service, potable water and a wastewater route. Blaine County environmental health or the local health authority usually reviews a temporary kitchen, and their requirements vary, so involve them early. Rental terms run from one week to monthly, so the same trailer can cover a two-week repair or a six-month rebuild. Health rules are set locally, so a kitchen in Bellevue or Sun Valley may face different steps than one here.
Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Blaine County
Dishwashing trailers cover the other half of the line for Blaine County facilities: low-temperature and high-temperature machines, push-through and conveyor styles, in several lengths. Start with the 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer. Kitchens in Sun Valley hit the same wall 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 Blaine County. A call about emergency refrigeration from Carey starts with the same three questions: what failed, what is inside and where the trailer can sit.
A typical January night in Blaine County drops to 13°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 82°F, and the county gets about 18 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 5 degrees colder than the average Idaho 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.
Customers we support in Blaine County
Rental customers in Blaine County are commercial, institutional and public: construction crews, nursing homes, jails and manufacturers. Each has its own pressure points, from a temporary kitchen for construction during a remodel to keeping staff fed through a long project. Care homes in Hailey and school kitchens in Ketchum, places of about 9,976 residents and about 3,609 residents, lose their lines for different reasons, but the rental that answers them is the same.
CMS lists one hospital in Blaine County: ST Luke'S Wood River Medical Center, a critical access hospital. Certified nursing care adds 1 home and roughly 32 beds. Public schools here number 9, enrolling about 3,343 students, with Blaine County District and Syringa Mountain School Inc among the larger districts (NCES).

Local conditions and rental planning in Blaine County
Emergencies that shaped recovery needs near Blaine County
OpenFEMA lists 8 disaster declarations that include Blaine County, going back to 1964. The most frequent incident types were wildfire (4 declarations) and flooding (2 declarations). A project that reaches Hailey should read that page too; it lists the declarations for its county.
The most recent is Ross Fork Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-5452), declared September 5, 2022. Evacuations, smoke damage and power shutoffs can close commercial kitchens and spoil refrigerated stock, while crews and displaced staff still need hot meals. The latest major disaster declaration is Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4333), declared August 27, 2017. By incident type, the count is wildfire 4, flooding 2, hurricane 1 and drought 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 1, 2000s 3, 2010s 2 and 2020s 1. Before that came Beaver Creek Fire (FM-5045, August 15, 2013), Castle Rock Fire (FM-2724, August 28, 2007), Hurricane Katrina (EM-3244, September 13, 2005), Wildfires (DR-1341, September 1, 2000) and Drought (EM-3040, May 5, 1977).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 43 county-based event records for Blaine County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 26 of them, flood events for 17. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $10 million, from a flood in May 2017. High wind rarely wrecks a kitchen directly. It cuts the power to it, and the walk-in cooler is the first thing to suffer.
Blaine County is the origin of 5 mapped wildfires of 1,000 acres or more since 2016, adding up to roughly 17,240 acres, according to NIFC. The biggest, Glendale Fire, burned 7,543 acres in 2024. Crews fighting and rebuilding after a fire eat on site for weeks, and the kitchens that fed the town may be the ones that lost power.
A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.
Major construction near Blaine County
No federal construction contract of $500,000 or more lists Blaine County as its place of work in USASpending.gov since October 2021. The nearest is in Lincoln County, about 30 miles away. In September 2025, the Department of the Interior awarded a $11 million contract for “Shoshone Wildland Fire Operations and Field Office” in Lincoln County, with work running to January 2028 (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 job in Ketchum (about 3,609 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.
Major renovation in Blaine County
A remodel of school cafeterias, senior centers and municipal buildings near Blaine County is a typical reason to lease a kitchen trailer. The planning questions are the same each time: meals per day, available power, and when the permanent kitchen is due back. The closure date drives the plan in Bellevue too.
This is a planning example, not a past customer.
Emergency access and staging near Blaine County
In Idaho, the Idaho Office of Emergency Management (IOEM) works with counties on emergency operations. Official staging areas and the roads that connect them to local emergency-management hubs are published by those agencies and should be checked there. For work in Sun Valley, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.
