Rathdrum, ID Mobile Commercial Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Cold Storage

Temporary modular kitchens are how Rathdrum facilities keep serving through a closure. A modular commercial kitchen rental brings the cooking line to the site, with kitchen setup for renovations planned around your schedule. If the work spills into Hayden, 5 miles from here, or into Post Falls, a kitchen rented here can be planned around both sites.

Common choices include the 38ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200 to 220A), the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200 to 220A) and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A). Each model page lists the equipment and the electrical service.

Dishwashing trailers cover the other half of the line for Rathdrum facilities: low-temperature and high-temperature machines, push-through and conveyor styles, in several lengths. Start with the 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer. Coeur d'Alene, 8 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 Cooler Trailer, 32°F, are rented to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and institutions around Rathdrum. A walk-in that fails in Spirit Lake starts the same clock on the stock inside.

NOAA's 1991 to 2020 county normals put the average January low in Kootenai County at 25°F and the average July high at 80°F, with about 33 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 7 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.

Kitchen requests in Rathdrum tend to fall into a few groups: manufacturers, golf clubs, municipal agencies and hospitals. Our industry pages explain what each group usually needs and how a rental is planned around it. Priest River (about 1,847 residents) and Plummer (about 1,125 residents) each have their own mix of hospitals, schools and plants, but the reasons they rent line up.

CMS lists 2 hospitals in Kootenai County: Kootenai Health and Northwest Specialty Hospital. Certified nursing care adds 7 homes and roughly 635 beds. The National Center for Education Statistics counts 54 public schools with about 23,218 students, in districts such as Coeur D'Alene District, Post Falls District and Lakeland District.

The checklist does not change for Dover or Pinehurst, but the pad, the power and the permit usually do.

• Supplies: mark a drop point for food and paper goods that keeps carts away from utility lines.
• People: decide who meets the driver, who signs off the setup and who calls us if something changes.
• Health review: ask Kootenai County environmental health or the local authority what a temporary kitchen needs to be approved.

The site planning guides cover each of these items in more depth.
