Who approves a temporary kitchen in Tombstone
The City of Tombstone's website lists permits, forms, ordinances, and City Hall's number, 520-457-2202 (City of Tombstone). Call City Hall first to ask which city permits apply to a temporary kitchen and which Cochise County office reviews temporary food service for your address, then send the trailer's equipment list and site plan with your application.
What reviewers usually ask for
- The trailer's equipment list: cooking line, sinks, handwashing, and refrigeration.
- Where the trailer parks, with distances to the building, the serving area, and utilities.
- Potable water source, wastewater handling, and grease handling.
- Electrical service; our standard and bulk kitchens list 220V single-phase service.
- Dates of operation and who operates the kitchen.
Our health approval guide covers the documents in more detail. If the dish room is also offline, include a dishwashing trailer; if handwashing is short, a handwashing sink trailer.
Access and placement in Tombstone
During events, Allen Street fills with entertainment (Helldorado Days). Plan delivery and pickup outside event hours, and confirm parking, turning room, and any street restrictions with the City (City of Tombstone).
What to send with a Tombstone inquiry
- The site address and ZIP code, with a photo or site plan of where the trailer would park.
- The last operating day of the permanent kitchen and the rental term you need.
- Meals per day, menu, dish volume, and whether cold storage is also offline.
- Available electrical service, potable water, and your wastewater plan.
- Your water source and wastewater plan, confirmed with the City.
- Event dates on your street, so delivery avoids festival hours.
Then request a quote from the Tombstone mobile kitchen trailer rental page. Permit rules change; confirm current requirements with each office before you book delivery.
