When a hospital kitchen closes for renovation, a storm takes out a school cafeteria or a construction site needs hot meals, a Mobile Commercial Kitchen Trailer keeps people fed. Mobile Kitchen 123 rents and leases mobile commercial kitchen trailers and portable kitchen trailers across the United States, with delivery coordination and a 24/7 Emergency Line at (888) 385-5513. We deliver nationwide, from Texas near Houston, Dallas and San Antonio, to Florida around Miami and Jacksonville, California in Los Angeles and San Diego, Louisiana at New Orleans, and North Carolina at Charlotte. Add a dishwashing or refrigeration trailer to any rental, then call for a quote at your construction site.
A mobile commercial kitchen trailer is a temporary food-production facility used when an existing commercial or institutional kitchen is unavailable because of renovation, construction, equipment failure, emergency response or a temporary jump in capacity. It arrives as a complete cooking line: ranges, griddles, convection ovens, fryers in the larger sizes, three-compartment and handwashing sinks, prep tables and reach-in refrigeration.
Our portable kitchen trailer rentals come in 24ft, 28ft, 38ft and 40ft layouts, plus combo kitchens with a walk-in cooler and bulk kitchens for high-volume production. Each mobile commercial kitchen trailer lists the equipment and electrical service for that model, so your electrician and your health inspector know what to expect before delivery. Browse every unit on the mobile commercial kitchen trailer rental page.
Renting beats waiting. A portable kitchen trailer for rent lets a restaurant, hotel, school or hospital keep serving while the permanent kitchen is rebuilt, and it lets an onsite construction crew eat a hot meal without a long drive. Short-term and long-term portable kitchen trailer leasing are both available, with rental periods of 1 week and monthly.
A mobile commercial kitchen trailer rarely works alone. Dishes need washing, cold food needs cold storage, and crews at a construction site or remote camp need showers, laundry and a place to sleep. Choose any service below, or call (888) 385-5513 and we will assemble the set.

Hospitals, nursing homes and assisted living facilities rent a mobile commercial kitchen trailer when a kitchen renovation, a flood or an equipment failure takes the permanent kitchen offline. Patient meals must continue, so the portable kitchen trailer is usually paired with a dishwashing trailer.
Schools and universities schedule kitchen upgrades for summer. A portable kitchen trailer for rent keeps the cafeteria or dining hall open when construction runs long, and a refrigeration trailer holds the cold food.
Prison and jail kitchens run on a fixed schedule with institutional volumes. Bulk mobile commercial kitchen trailers with tilting skillets and double-stack ovens are used for temporary kitchens during repairs and renovations.
Municipal buildings, military bases and public institutions rent a mobile kitchen for emergency response, field operations and facility projects, often with showers and laundry for crews.
Hotels, resorts and banquet halls lease a portable kitchen trailer when the main kitchen is under construction, so catering and room service continue through the busy season.
Golf courses, country clubs and caterers use a mobile commercial kitchen trailer as extra capacity for tournaments, weddings and large functions.
A temporary kitchen is only as useful as its dish room. Our dishwashing trailer options include push-through low-temperature machines and conveyor-type high-temperature machines, each with a soil tray, a three-compartment sink and a handwashing sink. A handwashing trailer adds multi-station hand sinks to a kitchen or camp.
A dishwashing trailer parks beside the mobile commercial kitchen trailer so soiled ware has a short route. Customers often rent both trailers together, with one power and water plan for the pair.
Every refrigeration call is an emergency. When a commercial walk-in cooler or freezer stops, a refrigeration trailer or refrigerated container puts cold storage back on site while repairs happen. The 20ft units are described as cooler, medium-temperature and freezer units, and the 12ft trailer fits tight sites.
The same refrigeration trailer works as planned cold storage next to a portable kitchen trailer during a renovation. Call the 24/7 Emergency Line when a unit fails, and we will match the right refrigerated container or trailer to your site.
The two names describe the same idea, a kitchen on wheels, and customers use them interchangeably. A mobile commercial kitchen trailer is the term you will see on plan reviews and purchase orders, while a portable kitchen trailer is how many crews and facility managers ask for it on the phone. Whichever name your project uses, the rental starts with the same questions: meals per day, menu, power, water and start date.
For a small renovation, a 24ft or 28ft portable kitchen trailer may be enough. For a hospital or a construction site with hundreds of workers, a 38ft or 40ft mobile commercial kitchen trailer, a combo kitchen with a walk-in cooler, or a bulk kitchen gives more production. Pair any portable kitchen trailer with a dishwashing trailer and a refrigeration trailer and the full line is covered. Tell us your numbers, and we will recommend a mobile commercial kitchen trailer for rent or lease that fits.
Crews at a construction site or remote camp need more than meals. A shower trailer, a laundry trailer, bunk bed sleeper trailers and a restroom trailer complete Life Support Service for a remote man camp or remote workforce housing site. The portable kitchen trailer, dishwashing trailer and refrigeration trailer sit at the center of that camp.

A portable kitchen trailer rental goes smoothly when five things are settled early. Electricity: requirements vary by unit; the 24ft and 28ft mobile commercial kitchen trailers list 220V single phase at 200A, and the 38ft and 40ft units list 200 to 220A. Water: a kitchen and dishwashing trailer need a potable supply. Wastewater: plan a sewer connection, or holding tanks with scheduled pump-out and grease removal.
Placement and access: a level pad, a clear route for a trailer up to 40ft, and a short walking path from the kitchen to the dining area. Approvals: health, building, fire and temporary-use approvals vary by location, facility and intended use, so ask your authority early. We supply equipment lists and layouts for plan review.
Setup for a kitchen or dishwashing trailer is about 5 hours, other units take about 1 hour, and ramps can add 4 to 6 hours. Delivery time to your location is confirmed by phone.
