Temporary kitchen rental for Plummer facilities
For Plummer, 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 St. Maries (about 2,487 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.
Sizing starts with how many meals you serve. The 24ft Mobile Kitchen and 38ft Mobile Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.
Supporting rentals: warewashing and refrigeration in Plummer
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. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Dalton Gardens, 28 miles from here, as it does here.
A failed walk-in freezer is a race against thawing. Call the 24-hour line for an emergency refrigerated trailer; the 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer lists 220V, single phase, 40 to 60A and a standard receptacle. In Hayden, where Kootenai County has 16 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 Benewah County at 24°F and the average July high at 81°F, with about 32 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 6 degrees warmer than the average Idaho county. A mixed climate means a kitchen trailer sees freezing mornings and hot afternoons in the same year, and the setup allows for both.
Plummer: emergencies, projects, access and costs
What past disasters mean for kitchens in Plummer
Since 1964, Benewah County has been named in 14 FEMA declarations; severe storms (7 declarations) and flooding (3 declarations) lead the list. If you plan across towns, check the page for St. Maries as well; its own declaration history is listed there.
The most recent is Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4917), declared June 30, 2026, with the incident beginning March 11, 2026. Storm damage and long power outages can shut kitchens and warm the contents of walk-in coolers within hours. By incident type, the count is severe storms 7, flooding 3, straight-line winds 1, hurricane 1 and volcanic eruption 1. By decade: 1960s 2, 1970s 1, 1980s 1, 1990s 3, 2000s 1, 2010s 3 and 2020s 3. Earlier declarations include Straight-Line Winds (DR-4905, April 7, 2026), Straight-Line Winds (DR-4589, March 4, 2021), Severe Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4313, May 18, 2017), Severe Winter Storms (DR-4252, February 1, 2016) and Severe Storm and Straight-Line Wind (DR-4246, December 23, 2015).
Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 12 county-based event records in Benewah County, with flood events the most common at 7. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $500,000, from a flood in March 2017. Flooding fouls kitchen equipment and drainage first, and a kitchen cannot reopen until it has been cleaned and inspected.
No wildfire of 1,000 acres or more has a mapped origin in Benewah County in NIFC's records since 2016. Smoke and power shutoffs travel farther than fires do, though: the nearest large fire on record began in Latah County, about 28 miles away, where the Texas fire burned 1,582 acres in 2024.
Declarations are federal designations for an area, not a record of damage at a particular site.
Infrastructure work around Plummer
Since October 2021, 1 federal construction contract of $500,000 or more has named Benewah County as the place of work. The Department of the Interior committed $510,000 to “Huckleberry Campground Electrical Phase 2” in Benewah County, awarded April 2023 (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 Coeur d'Alene (about 57,355 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.
Major renovation in Plummer
No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Benewah County. The nearest is in Latah County, about 28 miles away. The Department of Agriculture committed $639,000 to “Remove and Replace Existing Chiller” in Latah County, awarded October 2024 (award record). Building repair and modernization work often closes a kitchen for part of the project, which is when a temporary kitchen on a lease keeps meals going. Whoever remodels in Post Falls starts from the same two questions: when does the kitchen close, and what feeds people until it reopens?
Emergency equipment access around Plummer
Public emergency operations in Idaho are coordinated by the Idaho Office of Emergency Management (IOEM), with county emergency managers handling local response. Staging areas and access routes for disaster response are published by those agencies and can change, so this page does not draw a route. Staging and access details differ again in Dalton Gardens, in Kootenai County, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.
By CMS's hospital list, the closest to Plummer is Benewah Community Hospital, a critical access hospital, in St. Maries, about 15 miles from Plummer in a straight line.

Before the trailer arrives in Plummer
The checklist does not change for Kellogg or Moscow, but the pad, the power and the permit usually do.
- Potable water: kitchens and dishwashing trailers need a clean supply close to where they sit.
- Placement: pick a level spot with turning room, and keep fire lanes and entrances clear.
- Contacts: name the person who will meet the delivery and the person who will approve the setup.
Read the site planning section before you fix a delivery date.

Rent only what the project needs.
