Low elevation, about 190 feet
At roughly 190 feet there is no altitude adjustment for burners, ovens, or dish-machine water. Humidity and heat matter more, and we plan refrigeration and ventilation around them.

Colma, California Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Colma was founded as a necropolis, and cemeteries still cover about 73 percent of its land. Since the 1980s, retail and auto dealerships have become major sales tax sources, anchored by a power center built on a former landfill in 1986. El Camino Real runs through town, I-280 skirts its edge, and BART and SamTrans buses serve it.
We rent mobile kitchen trailers, dishwashing trailers, and emergency refrigeration trailers as short-term rentals or long-term leases. Call any hour or request availability and a quote for your Colma site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Colma
Mild winters, lows near 46°F
Winter here is mild, with typical January lows around 46°F. Freeze protection is a light-touch item, and we keep it on the checklist for the occasional cold snap.
Cool summers, highs near 68°F
Summer highs near 68°F keep refrigeration loads light and kitchens comfortable. Wind, rain, and cool nights are the bigger planning items for an outdoor setup.
Delivery from Sacramento

Where a mobile kitchen helps in Colma
Memorial and cemetery events
With cemeteries covering most of the land, services, memorial gatherings and an annual cemetery walk bring groups to town. Families and organizers who need hot food and cleanup after services can use a mobile kitchen and dish trailer staged on a parking lot.
School and parish kitchens
The town hosts a private Catholic school for preschool through eighth grade. When a school kitchen or parish hall kitchen is closed for repairs, a trailer with a cooking line and sinks keeps meals available through the school year without moving students.
Retail center events and downtime
The power center and dealerships host promotions and staff events across large parking lots. Restaurants in the retail area that lose a cooler or range can use a refrigeration or kitchen trailer to stay open while repairs are made, with parking space to spare.
- Post-service reception catering capacity
- School cafeteria coverage during repairs
- Refrigeration backup for retail-area restaurants

How a rental works
Rentals run by the month, with short-term and long-term options. Delivery, setup, and pickup are coordinated for your site. An inquiry does not reserve equipment; a person confirms availability, delivery time, and terms with you. Hours: open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Setup usually takes about five hours for kitchens and dishwashing trailers and about one hour for refrigeration units, and an inquiry is the first step, not a reservation.

Frequently asked questions
Can a trailer be staged at a cemetery or church?
Often, with the owner's permission. Ask about space, access rules and hours, and ask the town about temporary-use rules, and the county environmental health office about food facility permits. Services may restrict noise and traffic around the grounds.
What about parking a long trailer on El Camino Real?
Busy arterials make curbside parking impractical. Use a private lot with room to turn, and check with the town about any street-use permits and with the fire authority about propane and generator placement.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Colma in an emergency?
Yes. We answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and emergency deployment starts with a phone call to (888) 385-5513. Equipment ships from our Sacramento warehouse, and we confirm availability and delivery time to Colma when we quote.
Does an inquiry reserve equipment?
No. An inquiry starts the conversation only. Nothing is held until we have confirmed availability, delivery time, and terms with you.
