Lake Arthur, New Mexico Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Lake Arthur is in the Pecos Valley in southern Chaves County, at about 3,383 feet and roughly one mile west of the Pecos River. NM 2 runs through town, with the road continuing about nine miles north and eleven miles south to neighboring communities. Farms and ranch land spread across the valley, and the river corridor shapes how people plan for flooding.
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 Lake Arthur site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Lake Arthur
Mild winters, lows near 32°F
January lows near 32°F rarely threaten water lines, so winter rentals are straightforward. Cold storage still needs a steady power supply.
July highs near 100°F
At 100°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.
Delivery from Santa Fe
Lake Arthur is roughly 205 miles from Santa Fe, within regional reach. The final road conditions and delivery window are confirmed with you before anything ships.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Lake Arthur
River flooding
The Pecos River near Lake Arthur has had flood warnings in recent years, and autumn 2024 flooding led the governor to declare a state of emergency for Chaves County. Flooding can displace residents and shut kitchens, so relief groups may need a temporary cooking line.
Cooler failure after a storm
Storms and power interruptions can spoil food in walk-in coolers. A restaurant, church kitchen, or care operation without cold storage can use an emergency refrigeration trailer while power returns or equipment is replaced. The trailer can hold food and keep a kitchen operating through a multi-day outage.
Project crews along NM 2
Road, utility, or farm projects along the Pecos Valley bring crews who work far from food service. A field kitchen with restroom units can serve a temporary job site near town. Because no large food-service facility is at hand, crews often need meals brought in.

Delivery from our Santa Fe warehouse to Lake Arthur
We keep equipment in Santa Fe, the New Mexico capital, and plan every delivery from there. Lake Arthur is about 205 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 Lake Arthur
NM 2 is the highway through Lake Arthur, running north and south along the Pecos Valley. The Santa Fe leg is not confirmed here, so check the route, width, and weight limits with NMDOT, and watch for flooding closures after heavy rain.
We confirm the exact route and any seasonal limits for your address at quote.

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 should I call about permits for a temporary kitchen?
In New Mexico, the Environment Department's Food Program handles food permits, including temporary ones. Chaves County emergency management can also advise during flood response. Confirm what applies to your situation before the trailer is set up.

Trailers need stable, level ground and safe access. Describe the site conditions when you call, and expect that delivery may wait until roads and the parking area are safe to use.
