When a storm, flood, fire or long outage closes a kitchen, meals still have to be served. An emergency mobile kitchen restores hot food service for hospitals, nursing homes, schools, hotels and emergency crews while permanent facilities are repaired. Mobile Kitchen 123 takes emergency calls 24/7 at (888) 385-5513. This page is about emergency situations: the kinds of events that trigger a rental, what to do first and which add-ons keep food safe. For equipment details, see the mobile commercial kitchen trailer page. Planned projects, such as a construction site or renovation, are covered on our temporary mobile kitchen page.
Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, wildfires, winter storms and grid failures all interrupt food service. Gulf and Atlantic coast states plan for hurricanes, the central plains for tornadoes, and western states for wildfire. Equipment failures and kitchen fires cause the same interruption on a smaller scale, and a failed walk-in cooler is its own emergency.
Read how hurricane and severe-storm states plan on our Florida, Louisiana, Oklahoma and North Carolina pages.
Call (888) 385-5513 and tell us where you are, how many meals you need to serve and what is damaged. Confirm that power and water on site are safe to use, and keep a clear route for the trailer.
Food safety depends on cold storage. A failed walk-in is an emergency of its own, so ask about an emergency refrigeration trailer and a dishwashing trailer with the kitchen.
