Kitchen trailers for rent in Sheridan, WY
Temporary commercial kitchen rental in Sheridan covers a wide range of jobs, from a cafeteria rebuild to a crew that needs hot meals every shift. A project that crosses into Ranchester (about 1,176 residents) usually keeps one menu, one crew and one power plan, which is why the kitchen is chosen first.
Kitchens in the fleet run from the 24ft Mobile Kitchen up to the 40ft Bulk Combo Kitchen. For a site like this one, the 40ft Mobile Combo Kitchen, 38ft Mobile Kitchen and 28ft Mobile Kitchen are the models to compare first, each with its listed equipment and electrical requirements.
Dishwashing trailers and cold storage for Sheridan
Dishwashing trailers cover the other half of the line for Sheridan facilities: low-temperature and high-temperature machines, push-through and conveyor styles, in several lengths. Start with the 22 to 26ft Low-Temp Dishwashing Trailer. Basin, 61 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 Sheridan, stock starts to warm immediately, so an emergency refrigerated trailer such as the 20ft LT Refrigerated Trailer gives product somewhere cold to go. Lovell sits in Big Horn County, which has 2 federal declarations on record; a walk-in that fails there starts the same clock on the stock inside.
Climate normals for Sheridan County run from an average January low of 12°F to an average July high of 82°F, with roughly 18 inches of precipitation yearly. 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 Sheridan
Who rents a mobile kitchen near Sheridan? Mostly hospitals, manufacturers, school districts and hotels, along with contractors and public agencies. The need is usually the same: a working kitchen while the permanent one is unavailable. Care homes in Worland and school kitchens in Gillette, places of about 4,765 residents and about 33,846 residents, lose their lines for different reasons, but the rental that answers them is the same.

What shapes kitchen rentals in Sheridan, WY
Emergencies that shaped recovery needs near Sheridan
Since 1978, Sheridan County has been named in 5 FEMA declarations; wildfire (3 declarations) and severe storms (1 declaration) lead the list. Ranchester has a page of its own with the federal declarations for its county, useful when one project crosses the line.
The most recent is Elk Fire (fire management assistance declaration, FM-5539), declared September 30, 2024, with the incident beginning September 28, 2024. 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, Flooding, and Landslides (DR-4007), declared July 22, 2011. By incident type, the count is wildfire 3, severe storms 1 and flooding 1. By decade: 1970s 1, 2000s 2, 2010s 1 and 2020s 1. The records also list Little Goose Fire (FM-2719, August 12, 2007), Wy - Tongue River Wildfire - 11/19/2003 (FM-2512, November 20, 2003) and Severe Storms, Flooding & Mudslides (DR-557, May 29, 1978).
Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 37 county-based event records for Sheridan County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 33 of them, flood events for 4. NOAA's largest reported property loss there is $125,000, from a flood in May 2019. 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 7 wildfires of 1,000 acres or more that started in Sheridan County since 2016, together covering about 320,477 acres. The largest was the Remington fire in 2024, at 196,368 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 Sheridan
Since October 2021, 43 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Sheridan County as the place of work. The Department of Defense committed $9.1 million to “Big Goose, Little Goose & Goose Creek, Section 1135, Sheridan WY” in Sheridan County, awarded October 2021 (award record). Another public record is “Resurface Roads and Parking Lots Phase 3,” a $5.8 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract from April 2023 in Sheridan County (award record). In September 2020, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $5.6 million contract for “Road Repair and Paving” in Sheridan County, with work running to December 2023 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $4.2 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “666-22-104 Replace Sanitary Sewers,” starting July 2026 in Sheridan County (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 job in Buffalo (about 4,655 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.
Renovation projects that close kitchens in Sheridan
In May 2022, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $13 million contract for “Coal Boiler Replacement and Plant Improvements” in Sheridan County, with work running to May 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $9.6 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Building 64 Renovation This Is a Medical Space,” starting December 2022 in Sheridan County (award record). A remodel in Greybull, in Big Horn County, would start from the same closure date and the same temporary-kitchen question.
Getting emergency equipment into Sheridan
The Wyoming Office of Homeland Security (WOHS) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in Wyoming. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. Staging and access details differ again in Basin, in Big Horn County, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.
The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Sheridan Memorial Hospital, in Sheridan itself.
