Local facts
Custer at a glance

- About 1,952

Local planning
Where Custer projects usually start
1.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.
2.You serve on reusable trays and plates
Pair the kitchen with a dishwashing trailer so warewashing keeps pace. Volume decides between push-through and conveyor machines.
3.The health department needs paperwork
Ask your local health office what it wants before the trailer arrives in Custer. We send the equipment list and electrical data for the unit assigned to you.
4.The walk-in cooler or freezer just failed
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.
Kitchens in Pringle and Hill City are on the same delivery route as Custer. Starting rates match; only delivery is priced by distance.

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
Delivery is scheduled around the day your kitchen closes, so there's no gap in service.
24/7 Emergency Service
Breakdowns don't keep office hours, and neither does our phone.
End-to-End Project Support
From the first call to the last day on site, you have one contact for the rental.
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
We coordinate access, setup timing, and pickup so the work around the trailer keeps moving.
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 Custer
Planning a kitchen rental in Custer
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
When a storm knocks out power across Custer and nearby Pringle, 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
Large building projects sometimes need to feed crews or keep an occupied building's cafeteria running. A project in Custer could place a mobile commercial kitchen on site for the duration.
3. Kitchen renovation
Summer is when schools redo cafeterias. A district in Custer 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 Custer, South Dakota, the South Dakota Department of Public Safety 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 Custer
In Custer, mobile kitchen trailers start from $4,995 a month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895, with weekly terms on request. 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 Custer
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 Custer
Do you deliver kitchen trailers in Custer?
Yes. We serve Custer 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 Custer; trailers are delivered to your site.
How much does a mobile kitchen rental cost in Custer?
The same starting prices apply in Custer 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 Custer are quoted for your address.
Can I get an emergency kitchen trailer in Custer?
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for Custer, 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.
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.
Are long-term rentals available?
Yes. Rentals are available by the week or by the month (1 week or monthly), and long-term leases can run for the length of a multi-month renovation or rebuild.
