Commercial kitchen trailers for North Salt Lake

Temporary commercial kitchen rental in North Salt Lake covers a wide range of jobs, from a cafeteria rebuild to a crew that needs hot meals every shift. If the work spills into Woods Cross, 2 miles from here, or into Bountiful, a kitchen rented here can be planned around both sites.

Sizing starts with how many meals you serve. The 40ft Mobile Kitchen and 38ft 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.

About North Salt Lake, UT

Census estimates put North Salt Lake at 23,593 people in 2024, 44th of 194 Utah places covered here. It covers about 8.6 square miles of Davis County. Davis County covers 325 square miles and has 15 places on this site, about 376,044 residents between them; the largest is Layton. Spread over that area, the estimate gives about 2,732 residents per square mile. Salt Lake City, the Utah capital, is about 5 miles away in a straight line, which matters for state-level emergency coordination. Bountiful is the closest larger covered place, roughly 3 straight-line miles from North Salt Lake.

What shapes kitchen rentals in North Salt Lake, UT

Past emergencies and recovery needs in North Salt Lake

OpenFEMA lists 9 disaster declarations that include Davis County, going back to 1977. The most frequent incident types were severe storms (2 declarations) and wildfire (2 declarations). Woods Cross has a page of its own with the federal declarations for its county, useful when one project crosses the line.

The most recent is Straight-Line Winds (major disaster declaration, DR-4578), declared January 12, 2021, with the incident beginning September 7, 2020. Severe storms interrupt power, roads and deliveries together, which is hard on any operation that serves meals on a schedule. By incident type, the count is severe storms 2, wildfire 2, flooding 2, earthquake 1 and coastal storm 1. By decade: 1970s 1, 1980s 2, 2000s 1, 2010s 3 and 2020s 2. The records also list Earthquake and Aftershocks (DR-4548, July 9, 2020), Gun Range Fire (FM-5292, August 30, 2019), Uintah Fire (FM-5206, September 5, 2017), Severe Storm (DR-4053, February 1, 2012) and Hurricane Katrina Evacuation (EM-3223, September 5, 2005).

Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 52 county-based event records for Davis County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 46 of them, flood events for 6. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $1 million, from a flood in April 2023. High wind rarely wrecks a kitchen directly. It cuts the power to it, and the walk-in cooler is the first thing to suffer.

Since 2016, NIFC perimeter data lists 1 large wildfire beginning in Davis County, about 1,467 acres in all. Legacy (2021, 1,467 acres) was the largest. After a fire, inspections, smoke cleanup and power restoration decide when a kitchen reopens, and the meals have to come from somewhere in between.

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

Major construction near North Salt Lake

Since October 2021, 100 or more federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Davis County as the place of work. In July 2022, the Department of Defense awarded a $111 million contract for “Ground Based Strategic Defense (Gbsd) Software Sustainment Center (SSC), Hill Afb” in Davis County, with work running to May 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $49 million Department of Defense contract, “Design Build Construction Contract to Provide 388TH East Apron Repairs Located at Hill Afb Utah,” starting September 2023 in Davis County (award record). The Department of Defense committed $42 million to “F-35 T-7a East Campus Infrastructure, Hill Afb DBB Task Order 02 City Light and Power” in Davis County, awarded September 2025 (award record). Another public record is “Navy Operations Support Center,” a $25 million Department of Defense contract from November 2021 in Davis County (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 project in Bountiful, about 45,024 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Renovation projects that close kitchens in North Salt Lake

USASpending.gov shows a $79 million Department of Defense contract, “Hill Air Force Base Building 225 Area D Roof Replacement and Office Space Renovation,” starting August 2023 in Davis County (award record). The Department of Defense committed $36 million to “Design Build Construction Services to Repair the West 388TH Apron at Hill Air Force Base” in Davis County, awarded October 2022 (award record). Whoever remodels in West Bountiful starts from the same two questions: when does the kitchen close, and what feeds people until it reopens?

Getting emergency equipment into North Salt Lake

Public emergency operations in Utah are coordinated by the Utah Division of Emergency Management (DEM), with county emergency managers handling local response. Staging areas and access routes for disaster response are published by those agencies and can change, so this page does not draw a route. For work in Salt Lake City, look to the agencies covering Salt Lake County rather than assuming the same routes.

The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Lakeview Hospital, in Bountiful, about 3 miles from North Salt Lake in a straight line.

Local rental costs in North Salt Lake

A quote for North Salt Lake is built from the trailer you choose, the length of the rental, delivery distance and the setup the site needs. Starting points: the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen from $9,995, the 28ft Mobile Kitchen from $6,995 and the 40ft Bulk Kitchen from $10,995. Prices may vary. Centerville is quoted on the same factors, but at 6 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 North Salt Lake

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 North Salt Lake kitchens do not fall back on disposables. Salt Lake City, 5 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.

A failed walk-in freezer is a race against thawing. Call the 24-hour line for an emergency refrigerated trailer; the 20ft Cooler Trailer, 32°F lists 220V, single phase, 40 to 60A and a standard receptacle. A call about emergency refrigeration from Centerville starts with the same three questions: what failed, what is inside and where the trailer can sit.

NOAA's 1991 to 2020 county normals put the average January low in Davis County at 21°F and the average July high at 88°F, with about 26 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 4 degrees warmer than the average Utah county. Four distinct seasons mean the plan covers both ends: cold-weather water lines in winter and condenser airflow in summer.

Customers we support in North Salt Lake, UT

The county also has 6 nursing homes certified by Medicare or Medicaid, with about 555 beds.
