1
Past emergencies in Thornton, IL

The most recent is severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and floodng (DR-4819), declared September 20, 2024.

An emergency refrigeration trailer holds product while a mobile kitchen trailer keeps meals going.

Kitchen renovation
ScenarioA hotel in South Holland remodeling its kitchen could keep banquets booked by cooking in a rented commercial kitchen beside the building.

T.6Why us
Why kitchens call Commercial Kitchen Emergency 101
A closed kitchen doesn't cancel lunch. Patients, students, residents, and crews still expect meals on time, so the temporary setup has to cook, wash, and keep food cold from day one.
01
Accelerated Deployment
Units arrive ready to connect, so setup is measured in hours.
02
24/7 Emergency Service
Kitchen emergencies don't wait for business hours, and our line doesn't either.
03
End-to-End Project Support
Sizing, utilities, delivery, setup, and pickup run through one team.
04
Flexible Rental Solutions
Short-term and long-term terms on the same simple basis: by the week or by the month.
05
Heavy-Duty Commercial Equipment
Every unit page lists its equipment, so you know what's inside before delivery.
06
Experienced Logistics Coordination
Access routes, stairs or ramps, and hookups are agreed in advance.
Why clients trust us
We show the details before you call: each trailer's equipment, its power needs where we have them, and its starting monthly price. We work with hospitals, nursing homes, schools and universities, correctional facilities, government and military sites, hotels, resorts, and caterers.
24/7 emergency line

Often, but it depends on the jurisdiction. Health, building, fire, and temporary-use approvals vary by city and county and by how the kitchen will be used. Contact your local authorities early; we'll provide the equipment details they ask for.
