Common situations in Norfolk
1.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.
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 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.
4.Crews will stay on site
Add shower and restroom trailers, a laundry trailer, or sleeper containers to the kitchen delivery so the whole site is planned at once.

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
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
From the first call to the last day on site, you have one contact for the rental.
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
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 Norfolk
Planning a kitchen rental in Norfolk
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 Norfolk, an emergency refrigeration trailer rental could hold product while the permanent unit is repaired.
2. Major construction
New construction on a campus often closes the old kitchen before the new one opens. A university in Norfolk 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 Chesapeake could keep trays moving with a dishwashing trailer while the new machine is installed.
4. Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Norfolk, 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 Norfolk
Budget from $1,895 a month for emergency cold storage in Norfolk, $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 Norfolk
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 Norfolk
Do you deliver kitchen trailers in Norfolk?
Yes. We serve Norfolk 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 Norfolk; trailers are delivered to your site.

The same starting prices apply in Norfolk 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 Norfolk are quoted for your address.
Can I get an emergency kitchen trailer in Norfolk?
Call (888) 385-5513, 24/7. We'll check which kitchen trailers are available for Norfolk, 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.
Does an inquiry reserve equipment?
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.
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.
