Lewiston, ID Commercial Kitchen Trailers for Rent

For Lewiston, a modular kitchen trailer brings griddles, ranges, ovens, sinks and refrigeration in one unit instead of rebuilding them piece by piece. Lapwai is only 9 miles away, with about 1,249 residents, and Genesee about 11 miles, so a project that spans them can share one kitchen plan.

Kitchens in the fleet run from the 24ft Mobile Kitchen up to the 40ft Bulk Combo Kitchen. For a site like this one, the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen, 28ft Mobile Kitchen and 40ft Mobile Kitchen are the models to compare first, each with its listed equipment and electrical requirements.

Pair the kitchen with dishwashing. The 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer lists conveyor-type low-temperature dishwasher, a three-compartment sink and a handwashing sink, on 220V, single phase, 220A. Orofino, 36 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 Lewiston. In Kamiah, where Lewis County has 10 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 Nez Perce County at 26°F and the average July high at 86°F, with about 22 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 8 degrees warmer than the average Idaho county. Four distinct seasons mean the plan covers both ends: cold-weather water lines in winter and condenser airflow in summer.
