Temporary kitchen rental for Francis facilities

Temporary modular kitchens are how Francis facilities keep serving through a closure. A modular commercial kitchen rental brings the cooking line to the site, with kitchen setup for renovations planned around your schedule. A project that crosses into Kamas (about 2,145 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.

Sizing starts with how many meals you serve. The 38ft Mobile Kitchen and 24ft Mobile Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.

What shapes kitchen rentals in Francis, UT

Past emergencies and recovery needs in Francis

Since 1977, Summit County has been named in 8 FEMA declarations; wildfire (3 declarations) and flooding (3 declarations) lead the list. A project that reaches Kamas should read that page too; it lists the declarations for its county.

The most recent is Rocky Canyon Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-5665), declared August 9, 2026. 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 Flooding (DR-4011), declared August 8, 2011. By incident type, the count is wildfire 3, flooding 3, coastal storm 1 and drought 1. By decade: 1970s 1, 1980s 2, 2000s 1, 2010s 2 and 2020s 2. Earlier declarations include Parleys Canyon Fire (FM-5408, August 14, 2021), Rockport Five Fire (FM-5044, August 13, 2013), Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3223, September 5, 2005), Severe Storms, Mudslides, Landslides & Flooding (DR-720, August 17, 1984) and Severe Storms, Landslides & Flooding (DR-680, April 30, 1983).

Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 15 county-based event records in Summit County, with high-wind and thunderstorm events the most common at 14. Wind events bring down lines and trees, and a kitchen that loses power cannot keep stock cold for more than a few hours.

The National Interagency Fire Center maps 2 wildfires of 1,000 acres or more that started in Summit County since 2016, together covering about 7,390 acres. The largest was the Beulah fire in 2025, at 5,719 acres. A fire that never touches a kitchen can still close it: evacuation orders, smoke and utility shutoffs come first.

Declarations are federal designations for an area, not a record of damage at a particular site.

Infrastructure work around Francis

No federal construction contract of $500,000 or more lists Summit County as its place of work in USASpending.gov since October 2021. The nearest is in Uinta County, about 36 miles away. The Department of Agriculture committed $574,000 to “0419 Const Lower Middle Beaver Bridge Replacement” in Uinta County, awarded August 2023 (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 job in Hideout (about 1,489 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.

Rebuilds and remodels around Francis

A remodel of school kitchens, community halls and care facilities near Francis is a typical reason to lease a kitchen trailer. The planning questions are the same each time: meals per day, available power, and when the permanent kitchen is due back. Heber is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.

This is a planning example, not a past customer.

Getting emergency equipment into Francis

The Utah Division of Emergency Management (DEM) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in Utah. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. For work in Oakley, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.

By CMS's hospital list, the closest to Francis is Park City Hospital, in Park City, about 12 miles from Francis in a straight line.

What a kitchen rental costs in Francis

A quote for Francis 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 38ft Mobile Kitchen from $7,995 and the 40ft Bulk Kitchen from $10,995. Prices may vary. A kitchen for Park City, 12 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.

Sources: OpenFEMA (retrieved October 30, 2026); NOAA Storm Events, NIFC fire perimeters, NOAA nClimDiv normals, CMS provider data and NCES school data (retrieved October 31, 2026). Public records for an area or a project, not damage reports or work we did.

Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Francis

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 Oakley, 9 miles from here, as it does here.

A failed walk-in freezer is a race against thawing. Call the 24-hour line for an emergency refrigerated trailer; the 20ft MT Refrigerated Trailer lists 220V, single phase, 40 to 60A and a standard receptacle. In Park City, where Wasatch County has 9 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 Summit County at 12°F and the average July high at 75°F, with about 26 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 5 degrees colder than the average Utah county. With nights that cold, a kitchen trailer needs heated or insulated water lines, and a refrigerated trailer should not be asked to hold product warm against freezing air.

Industries we serve around Francis

Expect requests in Francis from nursing homes, municipal agencies, construction crews and school districts. A nursing home kitchen rental is a typical first conversation, followed by questions about power, water and placement. Care homes in Midway and school kitchens in Coalville, places of about 6,064 residents and about 1,541 residents, lose their lines for different reasons, but the rental that answers them is the same.

CMS lists one hospital in Summit County: Park City Hospital. Public schools here number 24, enrolling about 7,735 students, with Park City District, South Summit District and North Summit District among the larger districts (NCES).
