FAQ

Find information about our mobile temporary kitchens, utility connection requirements, permits, add-ons, and more.
Can I modify the equipment list?

Yes, it is possible to modify the equipment schedule based on available inventory.

What is the minimum lease term?

The minimum lease term is 1 month.

Who is responsible for utility connection?

Our mobile kitchen trailers are delivered with all electrical, plumbing, and gas connections pre-installed. It is the client’s responsibility to bring the power source, water source, and gas source (if applicable) to the unit and connect. It is also the client’s responsibility to provide a waste source with a grease trap if necessary. All utility costs during the lease are the responsibility of the client.

What permits are required to install a mobile kitchen trailer and who is responsible for permitting?

The permit requirements vary across states, counties, and localities. You should get in touch with your Local Health Department, Fire Marshal, and Building Department, inform them about your project so they can guide you on any particular requirements you need to fulfill. In most cases, it is required that you obtain a permit and expect an inspection once the kitchen trailer has been set up.
