Items marked RECORD come from public FEMA data; items marked SCENARIO are planning examples, not past jobs.
Record FEMA lists 13 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering Iowa County, which includes Parnell. The most recent is severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding (DR-4784), declared May 24, 2024. After a declared disaster, repair crews are booked for weeks. Renting a temporary kitchen and cold storage early keeps a facility serving while it waits its turn.
Record FEMA Public Assistance funded “Wooden Bridge (Bridge ID: M-2038) - I Avenue, South of 138th” (roads and bridges, $184,293) after the severe storm(s) declared March 23, 2019 (DR-4421). Public rebuilding projects also bring crews who need meals. A mobile kitchen with a dish trailer can feed them on site.
ScenarioA nursing home in North English renovating its kitchen still serves three meals a day. It could rent a kitchen trailer for the build and add a dish trailer to keep using real plates.
During a declared emergency in Parnell, Iowa, Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management and local officials direct public relief logistics, staging, and road access. Our deliveries are separate private arrangements: we confirm the route, site entrance, and placement with you and follow any access limits officials publish.
Three months in a standard kitchen trailer starts at $14,985 in equipment; add a dish trailer from $4,995 a month or cold storage from $1,895 a month. These starting rates apply in every location we serve. Delivery, setup, pickup, utilities, and permits are quoted for your address. See every unit's starting price.

T.5Terms
What every rental includes, wherever the site is. A quote covers equipment, delivery, setup, and pickup for your address. Starting rates are the same in Parnell as everywhere else; delivery is quoted by distance from Iowa City, about 25 straight-line miles away. We rent to commercial, institutional, and industrial sites only, not for residential use. An inquiry doesn't reserve equipment; availability is confirmed per project.
Weekly rentals or monthly leases.
Phones answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, emergencies included.
Allow about 5 hours for kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for other units; stair access usually takes 5 to 15 minutes when needed, while ramp setup takes 4 to 6 hours when needed.
Scheduled for your site and confirmed in the quote. GPS tracking possible on request.
T.6Why us
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
We plan the unit, route, and placement on the first call, which cuts the time from call to first meal.
02
Kitchen emergencies don't wait for business hours, and our line doesn't either.
03
Sizing, utilities, delivery, setup, and pickup run through one team.
04
Rent for a week or lease for as long as the renovation runs.
05
Commercial ranges, convection ovens, tilting skillets, and dish machines built for institutional volume.
06
Power, water, wastewater, and placement are planned before delivery day.
What we list is what we quote: a named unit, its equipment, a starting monthly rate, and a person on the phone any hour. We work with hospitals, nursing homes, schools and universities, correctional facilities, government and military sites, hotels, resorts, and caterers.
24/7 emergency line
A fire, flood, or failed hood can close a kitchen overnight. Call any hour with your address, meals per day, when the kitchen went down, and the power and water on site.
T.7FAQ
Yes. Parnell, IA is inside our nationwide service area. Delivery timing and cost depend on your exact address, the unit, and site access, and both are confirmed in your quote. We have no local office; trailers come to your site.
The same starting prices apply here as everywhere else we serve: kitchens from $4,995 per month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895. Delivery, setup, and pickup are quoted for your address.
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for your site, confirm your power and water, and give a delivery time once availability is confirmed. A refrigerated trailer can ride on the same delivery if your walk-in is down too.
Yes. Renovation is the most common reason to rent. The trailer parks next to your building, connects to power and water, and carries food service until the permanent kitchen reopens. Weekly and monthly terms let the rental follow your construction schedule.
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.
Mobile kitchen trailers from 24 ft to 40 ft, dishwashing trailers with push-through or conveyor machines, and refrigerated trailers and containers. For crews and long projects we also rent shower-restroom, laundry, and sleeper trailers.
