Where a portable kitchen trailer fits in Pawcatuck
Construction is a steady source of rentals in Pawcatuck: an onsite construction crew far from a restaurant, a construction site with no permanent kitchen yet, or a renovation that has closed the one that was there.
Onsite construction near Pawcatuck
Pawcatuck is a small town, and a large onsite construction crew can outnumber what its restaurants serve in a day. A portable kitchen trailer parked at the construction site solves lunch, with a shower trailer for longer jobs.
