Commercial kitchen trailers for Pecos

When a permanent kitchen in Pecos is closed for renovation, repairs or an equipment failure, a rented mobile commercial kitchen lets meal service continue from a trailer parked on site. Santa Fe is only 18 miles away, with about 90,551 residents, and Las Vegas about 26 miles, so a project that spans them can share one kitchen plan.

Common choices include the 28ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A), the 24ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200A) and the 38ft Mobile Kitchen (220V, single phase, 200 to 220A). Each model page lists the equipment and the electrical service.

San Miguel County covers 4,722 square miles and has 2 places on this site, about 14,083 residents between them; the largest is Las Vegas. That works out to about 773 residents per square mile.

Pecos: emergencies, projects, access and costs

Past emergencies and recovery needs in Pecos

OpenFEMA lists 19 disaster declarations that include San Miguel County, going back to 1965. The most frequent incident types were wildfire (10 declarations) and severe storms (4 declarations). Santa Fe has its own page, and its county, Santa Fe County, lists 8 federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.

The most recent is Las Tusas Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-5465), declared May 10, 2023. 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 Wildfires, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Mudflows, and Debris Flows (DR-4652), declared May 4, 2022. By incident type, the count is wildfire 10, severe storms 4, flooding 4 and hurricane 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 2, 2000s 8, 2010s 4 and 2020s 4. The records also list Calf Canyon Fire (FM-5438, April 30, 2022), Hermit's Peak Fire (FM-5431, April 12, 2022), Severe Storms and Flooding (DR-4199, October 29, 2014), Severe Storms and Flooding (DR-4197, October 6, 2014) and Severe Storms, Flooding, and Mudslides (DR-4152, October 29, 2013).

Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 72 county-based event records for San Miguel County; flood events account for 50 of them, high-wind and thunderstorm events for 22. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a flash flood in July 2022, with about $2 million in property damage. After a flood the pad matters as much as the unit: a rental kitchen needs firm, well-drained ground and a clear route in.

Since 2016, NIFC perimeter data lists 6 large wildfires beginning in San Miguel County, about 649,491 acres in all. Hermits Peak (2022, 341,735 acres) was the largest, and Leche (2026) the most recent. Fire weather means planned power cuts as well as fires, and a walk-in cooler does not keep product cold through a long shutoff.

FEMA declarations apply to designated areas and do not say which individual buildings were affected.

Major construction near Pecos

Since October 2021, 12 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named San Miguel County as the place of work. The Department of Defense committed $3.8 million to “Historic Building Repair - Conchas Dam, New Mexico” in San Miguel County, awarded May 2024 (award record). Another public record is “Advanced Measures for San Miguel and Mora Counties, San Miguel and Mora Counties, New Mexico,” a $3.8 million Department of Defense contract from July 2022 in San Miguel County (award record). In July 2024, the Department of the Interior awarded a $1.3 million contract for “Nm-Rio Mora Nwr-Bison Fencing Project” in San Miguel County, with work running to November 2026 (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 project in Las Vegas, about 12,711 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Renovation projects that close kitchens in Pecos

USASpending.gov shows a $539,000 Department of the Interior contract, “Peco-Hazmat Demolition and Removal, Hauling, and Site Remediation,” starting August 2021 in San Miguel County (award record). Española is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.

Getting emergency equipment into Pecos

In New Mexico, the New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM) 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. For work in Edgewood, look to the agencies covering Bernalillo County rather than assuming the same routes.

Christus ST Vincent Regional Medical Center is the nearest hospital CMS lists, in Santa Fe, about 18 miles from Pecos in a straight line.

Local rental costs in Pecos

A quote for Pecos is built from the trailer you choose, the length of the rental, delivery distance and the setup the site needs. Starting points: the 28ft Mobile Kitchen from $6,995, the 40ft Bulk Kitchen from $10,995 and the 40ft Mobile Kitchen from $9,995. Prices may vary. Moriarty is quoted on the same factors, but at 45 miles away a different address can change delivery and setup terms.

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 trailers and cold storage for Pecos

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. Edgewood, 43 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.

Emergency refrigeration for Pecos means cold storage that arrives as a trailer. The 20ft Cooler Trailer, 32°F is one of three 20ft temperature configurations, subject to availability for your location. Moriarty sits in Torrance County, which has 12 federal declarations on record; a walk-in that fails there starts the same clock on the stock inside.

Climate normals for San Miguel County run from an average January low of 21°F to an average July high of 88°F, with roughly 17 inches of precipitation yearly. A mixed climate means a kitchen trailer sees freezing mornings and hot afternoons in the same year, and the setup allows for both.

Customers we support in Pecos, NM
