Low elevation, about 1,470 feet
At roughly 1,470 feet there is no altitude adjustment for burners, ovens, or dish-machine water. Humidity and heat matter more, and we plan refrigeration and ventilation around them.

Lexington, Oregon Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Lexington is in central Morrow County on OR 74, along Willow Creek. OR 74 is part of the 130-mile Blue Mountain Scenic Byway linking I-84 with the North Fork John Day River. Wheat farming and cattle ranching anchor the economy, and the Morrow County School District has its headquarters here.
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 Lexington site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Lexington
Mild winters, lows near 29°F
Winter here is mild, with typical January lows around 29°F. Freeze protection is a light-touch item, and we keep it on the checklist for the occasional cold snap.
July highs near 93°F
Lexington's July highs average about 93°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 Salem
About 165 miles in a straight line from our Salem 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 Lexington
Fair and rodeo season
Each August the Morrow County Fair and Oregon Trail Pro Rodeo draws crowds to the county fairgrounds on OR 74, and in 2025 Lexington hosted the rodeo's kickoff dance. Event operators and vendors can add kitchen, dishwashing, and refrigeration trailers for the busy weekend.
Harvest crew meals
Wheat farming and cattle ranching are significant here, and the local airport sees seasonal agricultural flights. During harvest or other busy stretches, a farm operation, co-op, or contractor housing crews on site can use a mobile kitchen and sleeper units rather than trucking meals in each day.
School district kitchen outage
The school district's headquarters is in Lexington, though the nearest public schools are elsewhere in the county. If a school kitchen or walk-in cooler fails, a kitchen or refrigeration trailer can keep meals going until repairs finish.

- Harvest crew meals and housing
- School cooler or kitchen backup
Delivery from our Salem warehouse to Lexington
We keep equipment in Salem, the Oregon capital, and plan every delivery from there. Lexington is about 165 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 Lexington
Trailers can reach Lexington by taking I-84 to OR 74, which is part of the 130-mile Blue Mountain Scenic Byway and passes through town. Winter weather on the Columbia Plateau and in the Blue Mountains can affect timing, so check ODOT TripCheck before departing.
The closest towns we serve are Ione (about 8 miles), Heppner (9 miles), and Boardman (27 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 issues food permits in Morrow County?
Check with Morrow County Public Health or the Oregon Department of Agriculture, depending on your type of operation. Event vendors may need a temporary restaurant license, and a facility using a trailer may need its own approval. Ask early.
Can a trailer set up at the fairgrounds?
The Morrow County Fair office handles grounds rentals year-round. Call them about space, electricity, and water for the fair week, and let us know your layout so we can discuss trailer size and placement.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Lexington 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 Salem warehouse, and we confirm availability and delivery time to Lexington 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.
