They cover sudden equipment failures and planned renovations alike, on short-term rentals by the week or long-term leases by the month. Our customers include hospitals, care homes, colleges, jails, military dining halls, and restaurants that need meals on schedule.

Local planning
Where Arlington projects usually start
1.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.
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.Your kitchen is closing for renovation
Tell us the closing date and meals per day. We'll size a kitchen trailer for Arlington and schedule delivery before the last day in the old kitchen.
Projects in Arlington often share delivery planning with nearby Seven Corners and Bailey's Crossroads; the terms and starting prices are the same in each.

Why choose us
Why food service teams choose Family Entertainment Group USA
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.
Accelerated Deployment
Delivery is scheduled around the day your kitchen closes, so there's no gap in service.
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
Extend if the renovation slips; terms are set by week or month.
Heavy-Duty Commercial Equipment
Stainless interiors and commercial appliances sized for real meal counts, not events.
Experienced Logistics Coordination
Delivery windows, stairs or ramps, and utility hookups are agreed in advance.
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 Arlington
Planning a kitchen rental in Arlington
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
A long power outage can spoil a walk-in's contents and damage compressors. For a school district in Arlington, an emergency refrigeration trailer rental could hold product while the permanent unit is repaired.
2. Major construction
Large building projects sometimes need to feed crews or keep an occupied building's cafeteria running. A project in Arlington could place a mobile commercial kitchen on site for the duration.
3. Kitchen renovation
Correctional kitchens can't pause meal service for a remodel. A facility serving Arlington could run a 40 ft bulk kitchen trailer inside its secure perimeter for the length of the job.
4. Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Arlington, Virginia, state and local emergency management direct public relief logistics, staging areas, and road access; the state's page on USA.gov lists its agencies. Our deliveries are separate private arrangements: we confirm the route, site entrance, and placement with you.
5. What a rental costs in Arlington
In Arlington, 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 Arlington
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 Arlington
Do you deliver kitchen trailers in Arlington?
Yes. We serve Arlington 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 Arlington; trailers are delivered to your site.
How much does a mobile kitchen rental cost in Arlington?
The same starting prices apply in Arlington 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 Arlington are quoted for your address.
Can I get an emergency kitchen trailer in Arlington?
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for Arlington, 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.
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.
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.
