Iowa Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Leasing in Marcus
A full cooking line on wheels is the core of what we rent in Marcus: mobile commercial kitchens backed by dish machine trailers and refrigerated trailers. Short-term rentals handle the urgent call after a failure; long-term leases carry a planned kitchen rebuild from demolition to reopening. Healthcare kitchens, school districts, universities, government sites, correctional facilities, and caterers rely on them to keep meals going. We handle delivery coordination and setup, and our phone is staffed around the clock. Check availability and request a quote for your Marcus dates.

Local planning
Where Marcus projects usually start
1.The site entrance is tight
Send photos or a site plan. Long trailers need a clear turning path; we'll confirm the route and placement before the delivery date.
2.Power at the site is limited
Our kitchens list 220V single-phase service at 200 to 220 amps. Have an electrician confirm what's available near the parking spot before you pick a size.
3.You need a quote for a budget request
Send the location, dates, and equipment list. We'll quote equipment, delivery, setup, and pickup as separate lines so you can budget them.
4.Crews will stay on site
Add shower and restroom trailers, a laundry trailer, or sleeper containers to the kitchen delivery so the whole site is planned at once.
Facilities in Cleghorn or Remsen get the same equipment list and starting prices as Marcus.

Why choose us
Why food service teams choose Family Entertainment Group USA
Renovations run long, compressors fail on holidays, and inspections don't wait. The point of a rental kitchen is that your food service keeps running on its normal timetable while the real kitchen is torn out, fixed, or replaced.
Accelerated Deployment
We plan the trailer, route, and placement up front, which shortens the time from call to first meal.
24/7 Emergency Service
Our line is answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so a failed walk-in at 2 a.m. gets a real answer.
End-to-End Project Support
One team handles sizing, utilities planning, delivery, setup, and pickup.
Flexible Rental Solutions
Short-term rentals for emergencies and long-term leases for rebuilds, on the same terms.
Heavy-Duty Commercial Equipment
Commercial ranges, convection ovens, tilting skillets, and dish machines built for institutional volume.
Experienced Logistics Coordination
Delivery windows, stairs or ramps, and utility hookups are agreed in advance.
Why clients trust us
We don't hide the details. Every trailer page lists its equipment and electrical needs where we have them, every unit shows a starting monthly price, and our line is staffed around the clock. We serve hospitals, nursing homes, schools and universities, correctional facilities, government and military sites, hotels, resorts, and caterers.
In Marcus
Planning a kitchen rental in Marcus
These are the situations that usually lead to a call. Each one is a scenario to plan around, not a description of a specific customer.
1. After a storm, flood, or outage
When a storm knocks out power across Marcus and nearby Cleghorn, kitchens that lost their walk-ins compete for the same repair crews. Booking refrigerated trailers early keeps product cold while you wait your turn.
2. Major construction
New construction on a campus often closes the old kitchen before the new one opens. A university in Marcus building a new dining hall could bridge the gap with a kitchen trailer rental and a dishwashing trailer.
3. Kitchen renovation
Summer is when schools redo cafeterias. A district in Marcus with summer meal programs could lease a mobile kitchen so the renovation doesn't stop service.
4. Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Marcus, Iowa, the Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management and local emergency managers direct public relief logistics, staging areas, 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.
5. What a rental costs in Marcus
A standard kitchen trailer for three months starts at $14,985 in equipment in Marcus; 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. Compare every unit's price or build an estimate in the rental calculator.
24/7 emergency line
Emergency kitchen rentals in Marcus
A fire, flood, or failed hood can close a kitchen overnight. Call any hour and have ready: your address, meals per day, the date the kitchen went down, and the power and water available on site.
FAQ
Kitchen rental questions in Marcus
Do you deliver kitchen trailers in Marcus?
Yes. We serve Marcus as part of our nationwide service area. Delivery timing and cost depend on your exact address, the trailer, and site access, and we confirm both in your quote. We have no office in Marcus; trailers are delivered to your site.
How much does a mobile kitchen rental cost in Marcus?
The same starting prices apply in Marcus as everywhere we serve: kitchens from $4,995 per month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895. Delivery, setup, and pickup for Marcus are quoted for your address.
Can I get an emergency kitchen trailer in Marcus?
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for Marcus, confirm your power and water, and give you a delivery time once availability is confirmed. A refrigerated trailer can come on the same delivery if your walk-in is down too.
Can multiple trailers be set up at one site?
Yes. A common setup pairs a kitchen trailer with a dishwashing trailer and a refrigerated trailer, placed so staff can move between them. We plan the layout, power, and water for all of them together.
Can I rent a temporary kitchen during a renovation?
Yes. Renovation is the most common reason for a kitchen rental. The trailer parks near your building, connects to power and water, and carries food service until the permanent kitchen reopens. Rentals run by the week or month, so the term can follow your construction schedule.
What kitchen equipment can I rent?
Mobile kitchen trailers from 24 ft to 40 ft, dishwashing trailers with push-through or conveyor machines, and refrigerated trailers and containers. Kitchens range from standard cooking lines to bulk kitchens with tilting skillets and walk-in coolers.
