Local facts
State Center is within about 35 straight-line miles of Des Moines. Metro traffic and site access usually set the delivery window more than distance does, so we confirm both with your quote. The same route covers nearby Clemons and St. Anthony.
Local planning
Add shower and restroom trailers, a laundry trailer, or sleeper containers to the kitchen delivery so the whole site is planned at once.
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.
Call the 24/7 line first. Have the temperature you need and the power near your back door ready, and we'll check refrigerated trailers available for your address.
Send the location, dates, and equipment list. We'll quote equipment, delivery, setup, and pickup as separate lines so you can budget them.

Why choose us
When a kitchen goes offline, the meals don't stop. Patients still eat at noon, students still line up, and crews still need dinner. A working temporary kitchen, dish line, and cold storage keep that schedule intact while the permanent space is rebuilt or repaired.
Trailers arrive ready for hookup, so setup takes hours rather than days.
Breakdowns don't keep office hours, and neither does our phone.
From the first call to the last day on site, you have one contact for the rental.
Short-term rentals for emergencies and long-term leases for rebuilds, on the same terms.
Equipment lists are published for each trailer, so you know what's inside before it arrives.
We coordinate access, setup timing, and pickup so the work around the trailer keeps moving.
Straight answers build trust: published equipment lists, starting monthly prices on every unit, setup times stated up front, and a 24/7 phone line. We serve hospitals, nursing homes, schools and universities, correctional facilities, government and military sites, hotels, resorts, and caterers.
In State Center
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.
Water damage from a burst line can close a commercial kitchen without warning. A facility in State Center could keep serving from a temporary kitchen trailer while the floor and walls are opened up.
Utility upgrades in an older building can cut gas or power to the kitchen for days at a time. A facility in State Center facing scheduled shutoffs could run meals from a leased kitchen trailer wired to temporary service.
A nursing home renovating its kitchen still serves three meals a day. In State Center, a facility like that could rent a kitchen trailer for the build and add a dish trailer to keep using reusable plates.
During a declared emergency in State Center, 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.
In State Center, mobile kitchen trailers start from $4,995 a month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895, with weekly terms on request.

24/7 emergency line

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.
No. An inquiry starts the conversation. A person reviews your request, confirms availability for your dates and location, and sends a quote. Equipment is reserved once you accept the quote.
