Each kitchen includes a stove, oven, and essential cooking utensils. Additional equipment options are available through 24/7 support.

Cooking & preparation

For restaurant continuity during phased renovation, each kitchen includes a stove, oven, and essential cooking utensils to support phased kitchen renovation and section-by-section remodel. Additional equipment options are available through 24/7 support.

To support phased kitchen renovation and section-by-section remodel, preparation areas and requested equipment are reviewed before delivery for sanitation, functionality, site fit, and readiness. Additional equipment may be rented as needed for a site serving restaurants and hotels, including access items such as stairs and ramps. The same preparation, equipment, and sanitation checks are repeated during off-rent maintenance.

Sanitation & dishwashing

For restaurant continuity during phased renovation, every kitchen facility follows a sanitation plan before delivery, after the rental, and while the trailer is off rent for maintenance. The plan covers food-contact areas, sanitation-related connections, condition records, and readiness for the next dispatch.

Final sanitation, inspection, and maintenance records for restaurant continuity during phased renovation should be verified through company operations before delivery and before the next rental assignment.

Utilities & site access

For restaurant continuity during phased renovation, the site is reviewed before delivery for approved power capacity and connection type, potable water supply, wastewater or gray-water drainage, fuel or gas requirements where applicable, ventilation clearances, trailer placement, access, stairs or ramps, and any required permits or inspections. Requirements depend on the trailer configuration and site conditions and are verified with the company before dispatch.
