Gridley, California Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Gridley has been a city since 1905 and sits on State Route 99 in the Sacramento Valley. Hunting, fishing, and wildlife viewing at the nearby Gray Lodge Wildlife Area bring seasonal visitors, while Orchard Hospital and Gridley Unified anchor the institutional side. After the 2018 Camp Fire, the city also hosted hundreds of temporary housing units.
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 Gridley site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Gridley
Mild winters, lows near 41°F
January lows near 41°F rarely threaten water lines, so winter rentals are straightforward. Cold storage still needs a steady power supply.
July highs near 105°F
At 105°F a cooking line and a refrigeration unit compete for the same power and the same cool air. Refrigerated trailers work hardest in these months, and a failed walk-in can lose a day of stock fast, which is why we treat cooler failures as emergencies.
Close to our Sacramento warehouse
Gridley is only about 55 miles in a straight line from our Sacramento warehouse, one of the shorter deliveries we make. We still confirm the route, access, and your delivery window at quote.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Gridley
Wildfire evacuee support
Gridley hosted about 400 temporary housing units after the 2018 Camp Fire, a reminder of how quickly the area can be asked to support displaced households. In a future wildfire or flood, a kitchen trailer, restroom units, and showers could support a relief site or shelter.
Waterfowl season gatherings
Hunting, fishing, and wildlife viewing around the Gray Lodge Wildlife Area bring visitors to the area in season. A lodge, club, or event organizer hosting a large group may need a kitchen and dishwashing trailer when an existing kitchen cannot keep up or is out of service.
Hospital or school equipment loss
Orchard Hospital provides emergency care, and Gridley Unified runs the local schools. If a walk-in cooler, freezer, or range fails in either kind of facility, an emergency refrigeration trailer or temporary kitchen can protect food inventory and keep patient or student meals moving.

- Hunting lodge and club event catering

Delivery from our Sacramento warehouse to Gridley
We keep equipment in Sacramento, the California capital, and plan every delivery from there. Gridley is about 55 miles from the warehouse as the crow flies; the actual road route, timing, and any permits are confirmed when we quote.
Getting a trailer to Gridley
Gridley sits on State Route 99, roughly 56 miles north of Sacramento, so trailers travel up the Sacramento Valley on one highway. SR 99 changes from freeway to two-lane in places north of Sacramento, and Interstate 5 and SR 70 are both about 20 miles away. Confirm site clearances before dispatch.
The closest towns we serve are Biggs (about 3 miles), Live Oak (6 miles), and Colusa (20 miles).
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour
The Camp Fire started November 8, 2018, and displaced roughly 52,000 people across the region. When wildfire or flooding sends people toward this area, a 24/7 emergency deployment can put a kitchen, refrigeration, or sanitation trailer at a relief site.

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 kitchen trailer feed people at an emergency shelter in Gridley?
Shelter feeding is usually coordinated with the county and relief organizations, so contact Butte County emergency services and the county health department early. They can tell you what approvals, food-safety rules, and site placement apply before a trailer is set up.
What should we expect on the drive in from the south?
Expect State Route 99, which mixes freeway and two-lane stretches north of Sacramento. In winter, valley tule fog can sharply reduce visibility from November through March, so allow extra margin for access and setup if you are scheduling around fog.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Gridley 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 Gridley 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.
