Commercial kitchen trailers for Cashmere
A short-term kitchen rental after a failure and a long-term kitchen lease during a rebuild start the same way: a mobile kitchen for Cashmere is matched to the menu, the crew and the power available. A project that crosses into Wenatchee (about 35,401 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 28ft Mobile Kitchen for a focused cooking line, the 24ft 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.

Cashmere: emergencies, projects, access and costs
Past emergencies and recovery needs in Cashmere
OpenFEMA lists 51 disaster declarations that include Chelan County, going back to 1972. The most frequent incident types were wildfire (34 declarations) and severe storms (7 declarations). Wenatchee has its own page with its county's federal declarations, which helps when a project spans both.
The most recent is Wildfires (emergency declaration, EM-3650), declared August 3, 2026, with the incident beginning August 1, 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 Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4906), declared April 7, 2026. By incident type, the count is wildfire 34, severe storms 7, flooding 6, coastal storm 1 and earthquake 1. By decade: 1970s 2, 1980s 1, 1990s 3, 2000s 17, 2010s 20 and 2020s 8. Before that came Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (EM-3629, December 12, 2025), Lower Sugarloaf Fire (FM-5614, September 26, 2025), Severe Winter Storms, Snowstorms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding (DR-4650, March 29, 2022), Twentyfive Mile Fire (FM-5414, August 18, 2021) and Red Apple Fire (FM-5398, July 14, 2021).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 56 county-based event records for Chelan County; flood events account for 49 of them, high-wind and thunderstorm events for 7. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $200,000, from a flood in December 2025. Flooding fouls kitchen equipment and drainage first, and a kitchen cannot reopen until it has been cleaned and inspected.
The National Interagency Fire Center maps 18 wildfires of 1,000 acres or more that started in Chelan County since 2016, together covering about 342,488 acres. The largest was the Little Giant fire in 2026, at 172,912 acres. 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.
Major construction near Cashmere
Since October 2021, 17 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Chelan County as the place of work. Another public record is “Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery Surface Water Intake Fish Screen and Fish Passage Project Phase I,” a $17 million Department of the Interior contract from September 2021 in Chelan County (award record). In September 2020, the Department of the Interior awarded a $7.2 million contract for “Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery Pilot Circular Tank and Solids Handling Project Leavenworth, WA” in Chelan County, with work running to January 2022 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $3.1 million Department of the Interior contract, “Wa-Leavenworth Nfh-Pipeline Repair,” starting July 2026 in Chelan County (award record). The Department of Agriculture committed $1.6 million to “GAOA Selkirks to Surf Transportation Package 1” in Chelan County, awarded July 2025 (award record). Work like this puts crews on a site for months, often far from a restaurant, and the meals become a logistics question before the first shift starts. A project in Leavenworth, about 2,908 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.
Major renovation in Cashmere
No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Chelan County. The nearest is in Douglas County, about 44 miles away. The Department of Defense committed $5 million to “PH Hydraulic and Electric Elevators Replacement” in Douglas County, awarded May 2025 (award record). Renovations like this are the usual reason an institution leases a mobile kitchen, because the permanent one cannot run while the work is under way. The closure date drives the plan in East Wenatchee too.
Emergency access and staging near Cashmere
The Washington Emergency Management Division (EMD) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in Washington. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. For work in Entiat, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.
The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Confluence Health Hospital, in Wenatchee, about 9 miles from Cashmere in a straight line.
What a kitchen rental costs in Cashmere
Price depends on the model, the rental period, delivery and setup requirements and the utilities on site. Starting prices for kitchens near Cashmere include the 24ft Mobile Kitchen from $4,995, the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen from $9,995 and the 28ft Mobile Kitchen from $6,995, and prices may vary. See the equipment pages for dishwashing and refrigeration. A kitchen for Rock Island, 18 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.

Dishwashing and emergency refrigeration in Cashmere
If the dish room is closed too, add a warewashing trailer. The 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer needs 220V, single phase, 150A; plan a drain route sized for continuous washing. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Entiat, 16 miles from here, as it does here.
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 Cashmere. Rock Island sits in Douglas County, which has 17 federal declarations on record; a walk-in that fails there starts the same clock on the stock inside.
A typical January night in Chelan County drops to 22°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 75°F, and the county gets about 38 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 6 degrees colder than the average Washington county. A mixed climate means a kitchen trailer sees freezing mornings and hot afternoons in the same year, and the setup allows for both.

Before the trailer arrives in Cashmere
Sites in Cle Elum, 32 miles away, and Quincy use the same checklist; only the pad and the paperwork change.
- Supplies: mark a drop point for food and paper goods that keeps carts away from utility lines.
- Electrical: confirm the service matches the model, for example 220V single phase at 200 to 220A for the 40ft kitchens.
- Drainage: decide where wastewater goes, whether a sewer connection, a tank or scheduled pump-out.
See the site planning guides for power, water, wastewater and placement detail.
