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
Trailers arrive ready for hookup, so setup takes hours rather than days.
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
Rent for a week, a month, or a long-term lease that follows your construction schedule.
Heavy-Duty Commercial Equipment
Equipment lists are published for each trailer, so you know what's inside before it arrives.
Experienced Logistics Coordination
We coordinate access, setup timing, and pickup so the work around the trailer keeps moving.
Why clients trust us
What you see is what we quote: a named trailer, its listed equipment, a starting monthly price, and a person on the phone any hour. We serve hospitals, nursing homes, schools and universities, correctional facilities, government and military sites, hotels, resorts, and caterers.
In Elizabethtown
Planning a kitchen rental in Elizabethtown
The examples below are planning scenarios, not past jobs. They show how a rental fits the situations facilities run into most.
1. After a storm, flood, or outage
If severe weather floods a hospital basement kitchen in Elizabethtown, the cooking line may be out for weeks while it's dried, inspected, and rebuilt. A mobile kitchen trailer parked near the loading dock could carry meal service through the repair.
2. Major construction
Remote job sites near Rheems often have no restaurant within a short drive. A contractor there could feed crews from a mobile kitchen trailer, with shower and restroom trailers on the same delivery.
3. Kitchen renovation
Hotel kitchen remodels collide with banquet calendars. A hotel in Elizabethtown could keep its events booked by running them from a rented commercial kitchen beside the building.
4. Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency 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 Elizabethtown
Budget from $1,895 a month for emergency cold storage in Elizabethtown, $4,995 for a dish trailer, and $4,995 for a full kitchen trailer, by the month or the week. 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 Elizabethtown
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.

Kitchen rental questions in Elizabethtown
Do you deliver kitchen trailers in Elizabethtown?
Yes. We serve Elizabethtown 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 Elizabethtown; trailers are delivered to your site.

Can I get an emergency kitchen trailer in Elizabethtown?
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for Elizabethtown, 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.
What size kitchen trailer do I need?
It depends on meals per day, menu, and staff. A 24 or 28 ft standard kitchen suits conventional meal service; a 38 or 40 ft kitchen adds fryers, double-stack ovens, and tilting skillets; a 40 ft bulk kitchen is built for institutional volume. Tell us your meal count and menu and we'll recommend a size.
Do temporary kitchen trailers need permits?
Often, yes, but it varies. Health, building, fire, and temporary-use approvals depend on your city or county, your facility, and how the kitchen will be used. Check with your local authorities early; we can share equipment details they ask for.
How long does setup take?
Overall setup is about 5 hours for kitchen and dishwashing trailers and about 1 hour for other units. Stairs take 5 to 15 minutes to place; a ramp, when needed, takes 4 to 6 hours.
