Temporary kitchen rental for Camas facilities
When a permanent kitchen in Camas 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 Washougal (about 17,944 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 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen and 38ft Mobile Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 40ft Mobile Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.
Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Camas
A kitchen is only half of food service. A dishwashing trailer such as the 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer (220V, single phase, 300A) handles trays, plates and pans so Camas kitchens do not fall back on disposables. Yacolt, 18 miles away, has the same problem when the dish room closes before the cooking line does.
Refrigeration is an emergency. When a walk-in cooler or freezer breaks down in Camas, 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 Ridgefield 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 Clark County at 35°F and the average July high at 79°F, with about 67 inches of precipitation a year. January lows run about 7 degrees warmer than the average Washington county. Frequent rain makes ground conditions the main delivery question, more than distance or trailer length.
Local conditions and rental planning in Camas
Emergencies that shaped recovery needs near Camas
Since 1964, Clark County has been named in 15 FEMA declarations; severe storms (6 declarations) and flooding (5 declarations) lead the list. If you plan across towns, check the page for Washougal as well; its own declaration history is listed there.
The most recent is Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4906), declared April 7, 2026, with the incident beginning December 5, 2025. Flooding tends to knock out power and drainage first, leaving kitchens unable to cook or keep food cold even when the building is standing. By incident type, the count is severe storms 6, flooding 5, wildfire 1, coastal storm 1 and earthquake 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 1, 1980s 1, 1990s 3, 2000s 5, 2010s 1 and 2020s 3. The records also list Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4775, April 28, 2024), Nakia Creek Fire (FM-5456, October 17, 2022), Severe Winter Storm, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, Mudslides, and a T (DR-4253, February 2, 2016), Severe Winter Storm and Record and Near Record Snow (DR-1825, March 2, 2009) and Severe Winter Storm, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-1682, February 14, 2007).
Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 22 county-based event records in Clark County, with high-wind and thunderstorm events the most common at 15. 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 Clark County, about 1,930 acres in all. Nakia Creek (2022, 1,930 acres) was the largest. 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.
Construction projects and crew meals near Camas
Since October 2021, 34 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Clark County as the place of work. Another public record is “WA Ridgefield NWR Visitor Center,” a $8.1 million Department of the Interior contract from December 2023 in Clark County (award record). In March 2024, the Department of Defense awarded a $7.7 million contract for “Mna Levee Pump Station Upgrade Task Order 0001” in Clark County, with work running to July 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $6.7 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Con Project 648-20-116 Correct Electrical Def. Portland Vamc,” starting June 2026 in Clark County (award record). The Department of Veterans Affairs committed $6.3 million to “Construct Campus Security Fence and Access Control Con Project” in Clark County, awarded August 2026 (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 Vancouver (about 198,992 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.
Rebuilds and remodels around Camas
The Department of Veterans Affairs committed $7.4 million to “Minor Project 648-345 Repair Seismic Shear Walls, Community Living Center, Vancouver, WA” in Clark County, awarded September 2018 (award record). Another public record is “648-20-117 Correct Fca HVAC Deficiencies Building 2,” a $5.4 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract from August 2025 in Clark County (award record). In June 2021, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $5.2 million contract for “Ehrm Vancouver Infrastructure Upgrade 648-20-106” in Clark County, with work running to December 2023 (award record). The closure date drives the plan in Battle Ground too.
Emergency access and staging near Camas
Public emergency operations in Washington are coordinated by the Washington Emergency Management Division (EMD), 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 Yacolt, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.
By CMS's hospital list, the closest to Camas is Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center, in Vancouver, about 8 miles from Camas in a straight line.
