Ballard, Utah Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Ballard, at 5,049 feet in Uintah County, was settled around 1905 and named for Melvin J. Ballard. The county's economy centers on oil, natural gas, phosphate, and gilsonite, and US 40 and US 191 are the main highways. Energy crews, travelers, schools, and county services account for most food-service demand.
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 Ballard site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Ballard
January lows near 12°F
Ballard sees January lows near 12°F, cold enough to threaten exposed water lines. We confirm insulated connections and a freeze plan when we quote a winter term.
July highs near 96°F
Typical July highs reach about 96°F. Kitchen trailers need shade or ventilation help, and refrigeration units run longer cycles, so we size the power supply for the heat and not just the nameplate.
Delivery from Salt Lake City
Ballard is roughly 105 miles from Salt Lake City, within regional reach. The final road conditions and delivery window are confirmed with you before anything ships.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Ballard
Energy field crews
Uintah County's economy centers on oil, natural gas, phosphate, and gilsonite, and it was Utah's largest natural gas producer in 2008. Work crews can need meals, showers, restrooms, and sleeper units when housing is short, as in past booms when campers and trailers filled the basin.
Dinosaur National Monument visitor season
Dinosaur National Monument and the Utah Field House of Natural History draw visitors to the county. Group tours, reunions, and conferences can fill local restaurants, and a caterer or lodge with a kitchen out of service can use a temporary kitchen trailer to keep serving groups.
School district kitchen out of service
The Uintah School District serves the whole county. A kitchen shut for inspection, remodel, or equipment failure during the school year can use a temporary kitchen and dishwashing trailer to keep meals going. The setup also suits district summer programs or staff training days when regular kitchens are closed for work.
- Crew meals and showers at energy work sites
- Replacement kitchen for tour-season lodges
- School meal service during kitchen repairs
Delivery from our Salt Lake City warehouse to Ballard
We keep equipment in Salt Lake City, the Utah capital, and plan every delivery from there. Ballard is about 105 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 Ballard
From Salt Lake City, trailers head east into the Uinta Basin on US 40, which with US 191 is a main highway through Uintah County. Sources did not confirm the winter conditions on the full haul, so check UDOT before departure and confirm site access on oil-field and county roads.
The closest towns we serve are Roosevelt (about 3 miles), Myton (9 miles), and Altamont (18 miles).
We confirm the exact route and any seasonal limits for your address at quote.
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour
Cold winters in the Uinta Basin make heating and refrigeration reliability important at energy sites, schools, and care facilities. If a cooler or kitchen fails during a cold snap, a 24/7 emergency deployment can bring a kitchen or refrigeration trailer.

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
Which health department handles food permits in Ballard?
Uintah County is served by the Tri-County Health Department, with offices in the Uinta Basin and food service and permits pages under environmental health. Ask its staff what a temporary or trailer kitchen needs before setup.
Can a camp or kitchen trailer go on a lease site?
Siting a camp or kitchen trailer depends on landowner approval, local zoning, and health department rules for food and sanitation. Ask the county and the Tri-County Health Department what they require before you schedule delivery.
