Commercial kitchen trailers for Henderson
For Henderson, a modular kitchen trailer brings griddles, ranges, ovens, sinks and refrigeration in one unit instead of rebuilding them piece by piece. If the work spills into Boulder City, 13 miles from here, or into North Las Vegas, a kitchen rented here can be planned around both sites.
Sizing starts with how many meals you serve. The 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen and 40ft Bulk Combo Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 40ft Bulk Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.

Local conditions and rental planning in Henderson
What past disasters mean for kitchens in Henderson
Since 1981, Clark County has been named in 12 FEMA declarations; wildfire (5 declarations) and severe storms (2 declarations) lead the list. Boulder City has its own page with its county's federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.
The most recent is Carpenter 1 Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-5034), declared July 5, 2013, with the incident beginning July 4, 2013. Wildfire response brings long shifts for responders and rebuilding crews, and smoke or utility loss can take permanent kitchens out of service. The latest major disaster declaration is Heavy Rains and Flooding (DR-1583), declared March 7, 2005. By incident type, the count is wildfire 5, severe storms 2, snowstorm 2, flooding 2 and hurricane 1. By decade: 1980s 2, 1990s 1, 2000s 7 and 2010s 2. The records also list Cathedral Fire (FM-2847, July 1, 2010), Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3243, September 13, 2005), Good Springs Fire (FM-2563, June 24, 2005), Snow (EM-3204, February 23, 2005) and Record And/Or Near Record Snow (EM-3202, February 17, 2005).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 266 county-based event records for Clark County; flood events account for 140 of them, high-wind and thunderstorm events for 126. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $25 million, from a flash flood in August 2023. Floodwater leaves a building standing but unusable, so cooking, dishwashing and cold storage have to run from a trailer on higher, firm ground.
Since 2016, NIFC perimeter data lists 4 large wildfires beginning in Clark County, about 8,517 acres in all. Cottonwood (2020, 2,817 acres) was the largest, and Sandy Valley (2021) the most recent. A fire that never touches a kitchen can still close it: evacuation orders, smoke and utility shutoffs come first.
A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.
Major construction near Henderson
USASpending.gov lists 100 or more federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more with work in Clark County since October 2021. The Department of Defense committed $149 million to “Disaster Resiliency Program (DRP) Phase 1” in Clark County, awarded October 2024 (award record). Another public record is “Disaster Resiliency Program (DRP) Phase 2 Creech Afb Nevada,” a $106 million Department of Defense contract from October 2025 in Clark County (award record). In September 2020, the Department of Defense awarded a $88 million contract for “Design Build Initial Outfitting (Dbio), Nellis Adb, NV” in Clark County, with work running to September 2025 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $55 million Department of Defense contract, “Design Build Initial Outfitting Project,” starting August 2018 in Clark 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 North Las Vegas, about 294,034 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.
Major renovation in Henderson
No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Clark County. The nearest is in Mohave County, about 79 miles away. In August 2023, the Department of Health and Human Services awarded a $3.1 million contract for “PS Sprinkler System, HVAC, and Communication Cabling” in Mohave County, with work running to March 2025 (award record). Renovations like this are the usual reason an institution leases a mobile kitchen, because the permanent one cannot run while the work is under way. Whoever remodels in Las Vegas starts from the same two questions: when does the kitchen close, and what feeds people until it reopens?
Getting emergency equipment into Henderson
The Nevada Division of Emergency Management (NDEM) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in Nevada. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. Staging and access details differ again in Mesquite, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.

What a kitchen rental costs in Henderson
There is no single price for every job in Henderson. Equipment, rental term, delivery and site conditions all change it. As a guide, prices start at the 38ft Mobile Kitchen from $7,995, the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen from $9,995 and the 40ft Bulk Kitchen from $10,995, and they may vary. A kitchen for Ely, 225 miles from here, is built from the same quote, with delivery adjusted for the address.
Starting prices are guides, and prices may vary with location, rental length, delivery, setup and utilities. A written quote states the equipment, the rental period and what is included.

Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Henderson
Warewashing is easy to overlook until the dish room is the thing that is down. Dishwashing trailers like the 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer and the 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer can be rented with a kitchen or on their own for Henderson sites. Mesquite, 75 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.
Emergency refrigeration for Henderson means cold storage that arrives as a trailer. The 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer is one of three 20ft temperature configurations, subject to availability for your location. In Ely, where White Pine County has 5 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 Clark County at 36°F and the average July high at 100°F, with about 7 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 14 degrees warmer than the average Nevada county. At those temperatures a refrigerated trailer's condenser needs clear airflow, and shade or a short pad near a building helps both cooling and the crews working beside it.
