Akron, Colorado Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Platted in 1882 as a railroad camp, Akron is the Washington County seat, centered where US 34 meets CO 63 at 4,679 feet. The semi-arid plains bring cold, dry winters and hot, dry summers, with about 43 inches of snow in an average year. The Eastern Colorado Roundup fills the county's calendar every July.
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 Akron site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Akron
January lows near 18°F
Akron sees January lows near 18°F, cold enough to threaten exposed water lines. We confirm insulated connections and a freeze plan when we quote a winter term.
July highs near 89°F
Warm summers, with highs near 89°F, push refrigeration harder and make a hot cooking line uncomfortable. We plan ventilation and ask where the trailer can sit in shade.
Delivery from Denver
Akron is roughly 100 miles from Denver, within regional reach. The final road conditions and delivery window are confirmed with you before anything ships.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Akron
Roundup week crowds
The Eastern Colorado Roundup brings rodeos, rides, and livestock to Washington County each July. Organizers feeding volunteers, contestants, and visitors over several days can add a mobile kitchen and dishwashing trailer beside existing fairground facilities. Because the event repeats every year, a rented unit avoids buying equipment for one busy week.
Winter cold and snow
Average snowfall near 43 inches and cold, dry winters put steady load on heating and refrigeration. If a school, clinic, or care facility loses a walk-in cooler or freezer during a storm, a refrigeration trailer can hold inventory until repairs are done.
County seat institutions
As the county seat, Akron concentrates county government offices and public services that sometimes host meals, trainings, or emergency operations. A kitchen trailer gives them a full cooking line and sink setup when a building kitchen is undersized or being repaired.
- Feeding volunteers and contestants during Roundup week
- Walk-in cooler replacement after winter failures
- Temporary kitchen during public building repairs
Delivery from our Denver warehouse to Akron
We keep equipment in Denver, the Colorado capital, and plan every delivery from there. Akron is about 100 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 Akron
From Denver, trailers run northeast on I-76 across the plains, then finish on US 34 into town, where it meets CO 63. These are open highways, but winter blizzards can slow or close travel, so check CDOT road conditions before any cold-season dispatch.
The closest towns we serve are Otis (about 14 miles), Hillrose (19 miles), and Brush (23 miles).
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour
Winters here are cold and dry, with roughly 43 inches of snow in an average year. When severe weather or equipment trouble takes a cooler or kitchen offline, our 24/7 emergency deployment can place replacement trailers at the facility.

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 permits temporary food service at the Roundup?
Temporary food events in Colorado are generally handled through local or state public health authorities and the event organizer. Contact the Washington County public health contact and the Roundup organizers early to learn what license, inspection, and setup rules apply to your menu.
Can a trailer be delivered during a winter storm?
Winter storms can slow or close plains highways, so timing depends on conditions that day. Check CDOT travel information and call us. We operate 24/7, and emergency deployment is part of our service when a facility loses its kitchen or refrigeration.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Akron 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 Akron 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.
