Hillsboro, OR Mobile Commercial Kitchen Rentals and Emergency Cold Storage

When a permanent kitchen in Hillsboro is closed for renovation, repairs or an equipment failure, a rented mobile commercial kitchen lets meal service continue from a trailer parked on site. A project that crosses into Cornelius (about 15,369 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 40ft Bulk Kitchen for a focused cooking line, the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen for more production room, and the 40ft Mobile Kitchen where bulk cooking or a walk-in cooler matters. Power requirements are shown on every page.

If the dish room is closed too, add a warewashing trailer. The 38ft Low-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer needs 220V, single phase, 220A; plan a drain route sized for continuous washing. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Forest Grove, 8 miles from here, as it does here.

Refrigeration is an emergency. When a walk-in cooler or freezer breaks down in Hillsboro, stock starts to warm immediately, so an emergency refrigerated trailer such as the 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer gives product somewhere cold to go. A call about emergency refrigeration from Tigard starts with the same three questions: what failed, what is inside and where the trailer can sit.

Climate normals for Washington County run from an average January low of 35°F to an average July high of 78°F, with roughly 56 inches of precipitation yearly. January lows run about 6 degrees warmer than the average Oregon county. Frequent rain makes ground conditions the main delivery question, more than distance or trailer length.

Moving the job to Sherwood or Durham changes the pad and the paperwork; the list below stays the same.

• Timing: share your start date and rental period so the quote reflects the real schedule.
• Electrical: confirm the service matches the model, for example 220V single phase at 200 to 220A for the 40ft kitchens.
• Supplies: mark a drop point for food and paper goods that keeps carts away from utility lines.

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