Temporary kitchen rental for Plentywood facilities
For Plentywood, a modular kitchen trailer brings griddles, ranges, ovens, sinks and refrigeration in one unit instead of rebuilding them piece by piece. Requests from Wolf Point (69 miles away) and Sidney start from the same questions about menu, crew and power, even though the places are far apart.
Match the trailer to the menu: the 28ft Mobile Kitchen for a focused cooking line, the 38ft Mobile Kitchen for more production room, and the 24ft Mobile Kitchen where bulk cooking or a walk-in cooler matters. Power requirements are shown on every page.

What shapes kitchen rentals in Plentywood, MT
What past disasters mean for kitchens in Plentywood
OpenFEMA lists 4 disaster declarations that include Sheridan County, going back to 2000. The most frequent incident types were severe storms (2 declarations) and flooding (1 declaration). Wolf Point has its own page, and its county, Roosevelt County, lists 6 federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.
The most recent is Flooding (major disaster declaration, DR-4726), declared August 12, 2023, with the incident beginning April 10, 2023. Flooding tends to knock out power and drainage first, leaving kitchens unable to cook or keep food cold even when the building is standing. By incident type, the count is severe storms 2, flooding 1 and hurricane 1. By decade: 2000s 2, 2010s 1 and 2020s 1. Before that came Severe Storms and Flooding (DR-1996, June 17, 2011), Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3253, September 13, 2005) and Severe Winter Storms (DR-1350, December 6, 2000).
NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 46 county-based severe-weather event records for Sheridan County between 2016 and 2025, led by high-wind and thunderstorm events (43) and flood events (3). Wind events bring down lines and trees, and a kitchen that loses power cannot keep stock cold for more than a few hours.
Since 2016, NIFC perimeter data lists 1 large wildfire beginning in Sheridan County, about 1,000 acres in all. Homestead (2024, 1,000 acres) was the largest. Smoke, evacuations and power shutoffs can close kitchens and spoil stock even when the flames never reach the building.
A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.
Infrastructure work around Plentywood
No federal construction contract of $500,000 or more lists Sheridan County as its place of work in USASpending.gov since October 2021. The nearest is in Richland County, about 64 miles away. USASpending.gov shows a $1.2 million Department of Agriculture contract, “Roof Replacement, Building #18, Asset # 543600b018,” starting September 2022 in Richland County (award record). A contract of that size means a crew that eats on site: hot food for many people on odd shifts, with water and wastewater to plan for the kitchen. A project in Sidney, about 6,031 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.
Renovation projects that close kitchens in Plentywood
Building work on record nearby: Another public record is “Roof Replacement, Building #18, Asset # 543600b018,” a $1.2 million Department of Agriculture contract from September 2022 in Richland County (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. The closure date drives the plan in Glasgow too.
Emergency equipment access around Plentywood
In Montana, the Montana Disaster and Emergency Services (DES) 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. Staging and access details differ again in Glendive, in Dawson County, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.
By CMS's hospital list, the closest to Plentywood is Sheridan Memorial Hosptial, a critical access hospital, in Plentywood itself.
Pricing a mobile kitchen for Plentywood

See the equipment pages for dishwashing and refrigeration. Malta is quoted on the same factors, but at 154 miles away a different address can change delivery and setup terms.

Supporting rentals: warewashing and refrigeration in Plentywood
A kitchen is only half of food service. A dishwashing trailer such as the 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer (220V, single phase, 150A) handles trays, plates and pans so Plentywood kitchens do not fall back on disposables. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Glendive, 116 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 Plentywood. Malta sits in Phillips County, which has 8 federal declarations on record; a walk-in that fails there starts the same clock on the stock inside.
NOAA's 1991 to 2020 county normals put the average January low in Sheridan County at 1°F and the average July high at 82°F, with about 15 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 11 degrees colder than the average Montana 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.
Who rents kitchen trailers in Plentywood
