Lyons, Oregon Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Lyons, in Linn County, sits at about 633 feet in the Willamette Valley and was incorporated in 1958. Some homes in town were destroyed in the 2020 Santiam Fire, which also hit the canyon communities along the North Santiam River. Rebuilding and community recovery still shape local needs.
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 Lyons site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Lyons
Mild winters, lows near 37°F
January lows near 37°F rarely threaten water lines, so winter rentals are straightforward. Cold storage still needs a steady power supply.
July highs near 86°F
Warm summers, with highs near 86°F, push refrigeration harder and make a hot cooking line uncomfortable. We plan ventilation and ask where the trailer can sit in shade.
Close to our Salem warehouse
Lyons is only about 25 miles in a straight line from our Salem warehouse, one of the shorter deliveries we make. We still confirm the route, access, and your delivery window at quote.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Lyons
Wildfire recovery work
The Santiam Fire of Labor Day 2020 destroyed some homes in Lyons and many more in the canyon. Rebuilding crews, volunteer groups, and relief organizations working in the area can bring in a kitchen trailer and sleeper units to feed and house workers near their job sites.
Disaster relief feeding
Santiam Disaster Services assisted 1,221 families after the 2020 fires, according to Linn County. Relief centers and aid groups preparing for the next wildfire or flood can plan to use kitchen and dishwashing trailers as a base for community meals.
Care facility cooler failure
Summers here are warm and dry, with no month averaging above 71.6 degrees. Even so, a failed walk-in cooler at a restaurant, school, or care facility can threaten a large food stock. A refrigeration trailer can protect it while repairs are made.
- Rebuilding crew meals and housing
- Community disaster relief feeding
- Cooler failure cover for food service
Delivery from our Salem warehouse to Lyons
We keep equipment in Salem, the Oregon capital, and plan every delivery from there. Lyons is about 25 miles from the warehouse as the crow flies; the actual road route, timing, and any permits are confirmed when we quote.

We confirm the exact route and any seasonal limits for your address at quote.

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 handles temporary food permits in Linn County?
Check with Linn County public health or the Oregon Department of Agriculture, depending on your operation. Ask whether disaster-relief feeding falls under a different process, and apply well before the event if possible.
Can a trailer be placed at a church or relief center?
Often yes, if there is a level, accessible area with room for the trailer and utility access. Check with the property owner and the county about site approval, and tell us the layout so we can match a unit to the space.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Lyons 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 Lyons 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.
