Platteville, Colorado Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Platteville was founded in 1871 and incorporated in 1887, and it sits at about 4,803 feet where US 85 meets Colorado Highway 66. Fort Vasquez, a historic trading post, stands next to town, and a harvest festival has been held each August since 1910, now called Harvest Daze. The Fort St. Vrain Generating Station lies about a quarter mile northwest.
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 Platteville site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Platteville
January lows near 15°F
Winter nights regularly drop below freezing, with lows around 15°F. We check water-line protection and heater capacity for rentals through the cold months.
July highs near 90°F
Platteville's July highs average about 90°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.
Close to our Denver warehouse
Our Denver warehouse is about 35 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 Platteville
Harvest Daze weekend
Platteville has held a harvest festival every August since 1910, now called Harvest Daze. Organizers and vendors feeding crowds in August heat can use a kitchen trailer and dishwashing unit for volume cooking and cleanup, plus refrigeration for ingredients. Confirm placement and approvals with the organizers.
South Platte flooding
The South Platte River and local ditches run near town, and the 2013 Colorado floods reached Weld County, where a flood-damaged tank spilled 5,250 gallons of oil. After a flood, relief crews and displaced residents may depend on temporary kitchens, handwashing, and refrigeration.
Energy and plant-site crews
Weld County has the state's highest number of active oil and gas wells, and a natural gas plant sits a quarter mile from town. Maintenance outages and well-site work bring crews who need hot meals and dishwashing near the job.

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
When is Harvest Daze?
Reports say Platteville has held a harvest festival every August since 1910, now called Harvest Daze. Dates and format change from year to year, so confirm the schedule with the town and organizers before booking a trailer.
Does floodplain location affect where a trailer can be placed?
FEMA maps show the South Platte and several ditches near town. Ask the town and county floodplain staff whether your site is in a mapped flood area and what limits apply before choosing a placement spot.
