Emergency meal service for breakdowns, fires and floods is available alongside planned renovation and construction rentals. Terms are flexible, from short-term emergency rentals to long-term leasing. Disaster-response teams, nursing homes and manufacturers are among the customers we rent to. Delivery, placement and setup are planned with your site team, including power and water.

Commercial kitchen trailers for Texico
For Texico, 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 Clovis (about 37,555 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.
Match the trailer to the menu: the 24ft Mobile Kitchen for a focused cooking line, the 28ft Mobile Kitchen for more production room, and the 38ft Mobile Kitchen where bulk cooking or a walk-in cooler matters. Power requirements are shown on every page.
Dishwashing trailers and cold storage for Texico
A kitchen is only half of food service. A dishwashing trailer such as the 30ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer (220V, 3 phase, 200A) handles trays, plates and pans so Texico kitchens do not fall back on disposables. Santa Rosa, 100 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 LT Refrigerated Trailer, are rented to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and institutions around Texico. Lovington sits in Lea County, which has 5 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 Curry County at 24°F and the average July high at 91°F, with about 17 inches of precipitation a year. A mixed climate means a kitchen trailer sees freezing mornings and hot afternoons in the same year, and the setup allows for both.
Industries we serve around Texico
Rental customers in Texico are commercial, institutional and public: disaster-response teams, nursing homes, manufacturers and municipal agencies.

Roswell (about 47,176 residents) and Dexter (about 1,055 residents) each have their own mix of hospitals, schools and plants, but the reasons they rent line up.

Local conditions and rental planning in Texico
Emergencies that shaped recovery needs near Texico
Federal records show Curry County designated in 4 declarations since 2000, led by wildfire (2 declarations) and severe storms (1 declaration). Clovis has its own page with its county's federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.
The most recent is Tire Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-2897), declared April 17, 2011. 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 Severe Storms and Tornadoes (DR-1690), declared April 2, 2007. By incident type, the count is wildfire 2, severe storms 1 and hurricane 1. The records also list Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3229, September 7, 2005) and Severe Fire Threats (EM-3154, May 10, 2000).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 95 county-based event records for Curry County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 77 of them, flood events for 18. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a thunderstorm wind in May 2023, with about $1 million in property damage. Storm winds mean outages measured in days in some places, so the generator question belongs in the plan from the start.
NIFC lists no wildfire of 1,000 acres or more starting in Curry County since 2016. Smoke and power shutoffs travel farther than fires do, though: the nearest large fire on record began in Quay County, about 39 miles away, where the Line fire burned 29,200 acres in 2026.
A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.
Infrastructure work around Texico
Since October 2021, 53 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Curry County as the place of work. The Department of Defense committed $16 million to “Repair Fuel Tanks at Multiple Locations Cannon Afb, NM Ellsworth Afb, SD” in Curry County, awarded September 2022 (award record). Crews on projects like this rarely have a restaurant nearby, which is the case for cooking on site with a rented kitchen and a dishwashing trailer. A job in Portales (about 11,789 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.
Major renovation in Texico
In September 2020, the Department of Defense awarded a $6.1 million contract for “Modernize Electrical and HVAC Redundancy Building 848” in Curry County, with work running to January 2024 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $5.3 million Department of Defense contract, “Basic Ordering Agreement (Boa) for B116 Repair Regulators in Airfield Lightning Vault,” starting July 2025 in Curry County (award record). The closure date drives the plan in Tucumcari too.
Emergency access and staging near Texico
The New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in New Mexico.

Staging and access details differ again in Santa Rosa, in Guadalupe County, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.
The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Plains Regional Medical Center, in Clovis, about 9 miles from Texico in a straight line.
