Cripple Creek, Colorado Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Cripple Creek is the Teller County seat, a historic gold camp at about 9,456 feet on the west slope of Pikes Peak. Bob Womack's 1890 discovery set off Colorado's last great gold rush, and voters legalized gambling in 1991. Casinos now fill many of the historic buildings, and a narrow gauge railroad runs scenic trips.
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 Cripple Creek site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Cripple Creek
January lows near 5°F
Deep winter cold is the main planning item. Water lines, grease traps, and hand sinks can freeze overnight, so we plan heated, insulated connections and a propane or electric heat source, and we ask about heat tape and a covered hookup on site.
Cool summers, highs near 73°F
Summer highs near 73°F keep refrigeration loads light and kitchens comfortable. Wind, rain, and cool nights are the bigger planning items for an outdoor setup.
Close to our Denver warehouse
Our Denver warehouse is about 70 miles away, so equipment does not travel far. That helps in an emergency, and we plan placement and hookups with you before the trailer rolls.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Cripple Creek
Casino and restaurant outages
With casinos operating in historic buildings, kitchens are often tucked into older structures with tight service access. A failed range, hood, or walk-in cooler can halt dining for a full property, and a trailer parked behind or beside the building can restore food service.
Donkey Derby Days and holiday crowds
The town hosts Donkey Derby Days, an ice festival, July 4 celebrations, and a Gold Camp Christmas. Street events pack the historic district, and organizers or vendors can use a kitchen trailer for extra cooking and dishwashing capacity beyond what permanent kitchens can handle.
Highway 67 winter closures
SH 67 is a main route into town, and in February 2024 the sheriff closed it from mile marker 53 to 69 for severe weather; another closure lasted nearly a week after a sinkhole. When the road closes, deliveries stall, and a refrigeration trailer helps protect inventory.

Delivery from our Denver warehouse to Cripple Creek
We keep equipment in Denver, the Colorado capital, and plan every delivery from there. Cripple Creek is about 70 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 Cripple Creek
SH 67 is the main road to Cripple Creek and climbs from the US 24 corridor on the Pikes Peak side. Winter storms have closed it, including a full closure in February 2024. Expect steep grades, curves, and tight historic streets, and check CDOT conditions before dispatch.
If your project spans more than one site, Victor, about 4 miles from Cripple Creek, and Green Mountain Falls, about 16 miles, can be planned on the same delivery, as can Manitou Springs at 17 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
Can a kitchen trailer operate near the historic district or a casino?
It may be possible, but placement near historic buildings is usually reviewed by the city, and food service needs health department approval. Contact the city and county early, and ask about parking, fire access, and temporary use rules for your site.
How does altitude affect cooking equipment here?
At about 9,500 feet, boiling points drop and some gas appliances need adjustment, so tell us your menu and equipment preferences. Cold weather also requires freeze protection. Ask about high-altitude setups when booking so the right equipment is staged.
How fast can a trailer get to Cripple Creek if our kitchen is down?
Call (888) 385-5513 at any hour and we begin planning on that call. Trailers leave from our Denver warehouse, and the delivery time to Cripple Creek depends on the equipment and the road, which we confirm in your quote.
Does an inquiry reserve equipment?
Not by itself. We reply with availability, timing, and terms first, and equipment is reserved only after you agree to them.
