Commercial kitchen trailers for Union Gap

A mobile kitchen trailer rental in Union Gap puts a complete commercial cooking line beside the building that needs it, so a closed kitchen does not have to mean closed meal service. A project that crosses into Yakima (about 97,390 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 24ft Mobile Kitchen and 28ft Mobile Kitchen suit different kitchen volumes, and the 38ft Mobile Kitchen adds capacity for larger operations; compare their equipment lists and power needs before you choose.

Union Gap: emergencies, projects, access and costs

Past emergencies and recovery needs in Union Gap

OpenFEMA lists 37 disaster declarations that include Yakima County, going back to 1964. The most frequent incident types were wildfire (20 declarations) and flooding (10 declarations). Yakima has a page of its own with the federal declarations for its county, useful when one project crosses the line.

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 20, flooding 10, severe storms 3, coastal storm 1 and earthquake 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 5, 1980s 1, 1990s 4, 2000s 9, 2010s 5 and 2020s 12. Earlier declarations include Ransier Fire (FM-5651, July 26, 2026), Signal Peak Fire (FM-5649, July 26, 2026), Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (EM-3629, December 12, 2025), Retreat Fire (FM-5521, July 26, 2024) and West White Swan Fire (FM-5517, July 23, 2024).

Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 12 county-based event records in Yakima County, with flood events the most common at 11. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a flood in March 2016, with about $300,000 in property damage. Flooding fouls kitchen equipment and drainage first, and a kitchen cannot reopen until it has been cleaned and inspected.

Yakima County is the origin of 21 mapped wildfires of 1,000 acres or more since 2016, adding up to roughly 386,191 acres, according to NIFC. The biggest, Schneider Springs, burned 107,322 acres in 2021. Smoke, evacuations and power shutoffs can close kitchens and spoil stock even when the flames never reach the building.

A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.

Construction projects and crew meals near Union Gap

USASpending.gov lists 38 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more with work in Yakima County since October 2021, worth about $134 million together. Another public record is “Fish Screen Replacement - Roza Diversion Dam,” a $29 million Department of the Interior contract from January 2024 in Yakima County (award record). In October 2019, the Department of Defense awarded a $22 million contract for “Construct Fire Station at Yakima Training Center, Yakima, Washington” in Yakima County, with work running to March 2024 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $20 million Department of Defense contract, “D/B/B Yakima Equipment Concentration Site Warehouse,” starting February 2024 in Yakima County (award record). The Department of the Interior committed $6.4 million to “Wapato Headworks Rehabilitation” in Yakima County, awarded January 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 Moxee (about 4,791 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.

Major renovation in Union Gap

Another public record is “Air Handler Unit Replacement - Four Units,” a $7.2 million Department of Agriculture contract from May 2025 in Yakima County (award record). A remodel in Selah would start from the same closure date and the same temporary-kitchen question.

Getting emergency equipment into Union Gap

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 Wapato, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.

Yakima Valley Memorial is the nearest hospital CMS lists, in Yakima, about 4 miles from Union Gap in a straight line.

Pricing a mobile kitchen for Union Gap

Price depends on the model, the rental period, delivery and setup requirements and the utilities on site. Starting prices for kitchens near Union Gap include the 24ft Mobile Kitchen from $4,995, the 38ft Mobile Kitchen from $7,995 and the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen from $9,995, and prices may vary. See the equipment pages for dishwashing and refrigeration. Zillah is quoted on the same factors, but at 15 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.

Supporting rentals: warewashing and refrigeration in Union Gap

Pair the kitchen with dishwashing. The 38ft High-Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer lists conveyor-type high-temperature dishwasher, a three-compartment sink and a handwashing sink, on 220V, single phase, 300A. Warewashing needs the same hot water and drain plan in Wapato, 8 miles from here, as it does here.

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

A typical January night in Yakima County drops to 24°F, a typical July afternoon reaches 81°F, and the county gets about 26 inches of precipitation in a year (NOAA, 1991 to 2020). January lows run about 4 degrees colder than the average Washington county. Four distinct seasons mean the plan covers both ends: cold-weather water lines in winter and condenser airflow in summer.
