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
You get help matching the trailer to your menu, staff, and site before anything ships.
Flexible Rental Solutions
Rent for a week, a month, or a long-term lease that follows your construction schedule.
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
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 Lancaster
Planning a kitchen rental in Lancaster
Read these as what-if planning notes. They describe common situations, not customer stories.
1. After a storm, flood, or outage
Water damage from a burst line can close a commercial kitchen without warning. A facility in Lancaster could keep serving from a temporary kitchen trailer while the floor and walls are opened up.
2. Major construction
New construction on a campus often closes the old kitchen before the new one opens. A university in Lancaster building a new dining hall could bridge the gap with a kitchen trailer rental and a dishwashing trailer.
3. Kitchen renovation
Replacing a dish room is a renovation too. A hospital near Kilmarnock could keep trays moving with a dishwashing trailer while the new machine is installed.
4. Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Lancaster, 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 Lancaster
In Lancaster, mobile kitchen trailers start from $4,995 a month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895, with weekly terms on request.

Kitchen rental questions in Lancaster

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.
