Aguilar, Colorado Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Aguilar sits at 6,388 feet in Las Animas County, about a mile west of I-25 in the foothills below the Spanish Peaks. Coal built the town, from the Peerless mine of 1888 to the labor conflicts of the Colorado Coalfield War. The Aguilar school district runs an elementary school and a junior-senior high school.
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 Aguilar site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Aguilar
January lows near 20°F
Winter nights regularly drop below freezing, with lows around 20°F. We check water-line protection and heater capacity for rentals through the cold months.
July highs near 88°F
Aguilar's July highs average about 88°F. That is a normal load for our equipment, but it is enough to expose an aging walk-in cooler, which is a common reason people call us.
Delivery from Denver
About 160 miles in a straight line from our Denver warehouse. That is a regional delivery: we confirm the road route, any seasonal limits, and the timing when we quote.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Aguilar
Wildfire evacuation support
A wildfire reported on April 10, 2023, a few miles southwest of town led the sheriff's office to order evacuations in Mauricio Canyon and along Trujillo Creek, with resources gathered at the community center. A mobile kitchen can feed displaced residents and responders when a gathering site has no cooking line.
School kitchen out of service
The district operates just two schools, so a failed range, dish machine, or walk-in cooler affects every student meal at once. A kitchen trailer with a three-compartment sink and a dishwashing trailer can keep service running during repairs or a renovation.
Summer heat and food storage
July is the warmest month, with a mean daily high near 88.7 degrees. When a cooler fails at a restaurant, care facility, or event site during hot weather, an emergency refrigeration trailer protects stored food while the permanent unit is repaired.
- Emergency kitchen for wildfire evacuees and responders
- School meal service during kitchen repairs
- Backup refrigeration during summer heat failures
Delivery from our Denver warehouse to Aguilar
We keep equipment in Denver, the Colorado capital, and plan every delivery from there. Aguilar is about 160 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 Aguilar
Trailers head south from the Denver warehouse on I-25, which passes about a mile east of Aguilar, and leave at the exit serving the town's business loop. The final approach is short, but confirm turning room and site access before dispatch, since canyon roads west of town are narrower.
The closest towns we serve are Walsenburg (about 17 miles), Cokedale (18 miles), and Trinidad (18 miles).
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour

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
Who do I call about permits for a mobile kitchen in Las Animas County?
Mobile and temporary food service is regulated through local and state public health channels in Colorado. Contact the Las Animas County public health office early, describe your menu and setup, and ask which license, inspection, or plan review applies before the trailer arrives.
Does elevation matter for trailer cooking equipment at 6,388 feet?
Gas burners and ovens can behave differently at altitude, depending on how they are rated. Give us your site elevation when you call, and check the appliance specifications for altitude limits so cooking performance matches what your menu needs.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Aguilar 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 Denver warehouse, and we confirm availability and delivery time to Aguilar 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.
