How Oberlin projects use a mobile commercial kitchen trailer
A Oberlin general contractor weighing a construction site lunch truck against onsite construction catering can compare it with a trailer on the pad, which also holds up in weather.
Onsite construction near Oberlin
Oberlin 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.
Where a Oberlin crew stays and eats
With Lexington about 78 miles northeast, a Oberlin project has nearby lodging but a long lunch break. Renting a kitchen, cold storage and restrooms for the onsite construction crew keeps people on the job.
