Hanksville, Utah Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Hanksville sits at 4,295 feet where State Routes 24 and 95 meet, in cold desert near the Fremont River and Muddy Creek. Settled in 1882, it supplied the Wild Bunch and later the uranium boom. Capitol Reef National Park, Goblin Valley State Park, the Henry Mountains, and the San Rafael Swell make tourism, along with mining and agriculture, central to local 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 Hanksville site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Hanksville
January lows near 24°F
Hanksville sees January lows near 24°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 99°F
Summer heat near 99°F is the stress test for cold storage and kitchen ventilation. If a cooler stops cooling, call right away: the temperature climbs quickly and we can start planning a replacement during the call.
Delivery from Salt Lake City
Hanksville is roughly 175 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 Hanksville
Spring and fall visitor peaks
Goblin Valley State Park, about 15 minutes north, lists spring and fall as the best seasons, and summer can top 100 degrees. A lodge or restaurant caught between peak-season crowds and limited kitchen capacity could rent a trailer kitchen for the busiest weeks.
Research and field crews
The Mars Society's Mars Desert Research Station sits about 7 miles northwest, and crews of researchers rotate through during the winter field season. Groups working at remote sites in this area may need meals, showers, and restrooms supplied on location.
Heat and a long way from help
The Goblin Valley State Park guidance warns that emergency services can be slow to arrive. A restaurant, lodge, or group camp that loses refrigeration in summer heat is far from alternatives, so an on-site refrigeration trailer limits spoilage while parts or repairs are arranged.
- Overflow kitchen in spring and fall
- Meals and showers for field crews
- Backup cooler in desert heat
Delivery from our Salt Lake City warehouse to Hanksville
We keep equipment in Salt Lake City, the Utah capital, and plan every delivery from there. Hanksville is about 175 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 Hanksville
State Routes 24 and 95 meet at Hanksville. SR 24 runs south from I-70 exit 149 to Hanksville, passing the Goblin Valley area, and continues west through Capitol Reef. From the Salt Lake City warehouse, plan for a long desert approach with limited services.
If your project spans more than one site, Torrey, about 39 miles from Hanksville, and Bicknell, about 45 miles, can be planned on the same delivery, as can Lyman at 47 miles.
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour
With about 6 inches of rain a year, the area is dry, but summers can top 100 degrees and flash floods are possible on desert roads. A 24/7 emergency deployment can bring refrigeration or a kitchen to a site that is a long way from backup.

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 covers Hanksville?
Wayne County is part of the Central Utah Public Health Department district. Call them to confirm what permit a trailer kitchen needs, especially if you plan to serve the public at an event.
Do I need to bring my own water and power?
Services in this area are limited, so plan for how the trailer will get water, wastewater handling, and power or a generator. Talk with the property owner, and let us know what the site has when you contact us.
How fast can a trailer get to Hanksville if our kitchen is down?
Call (888) 385-5513 at any hour and we begin planning on that call. Trailers leave from our Salt Lake City warehouse, and the delivery time to Hanksville depends on the equipment and the road, which we confirm in your quote.
Does an inquiry reserve equipment?
Not by itself. We reply with availability, timing, and terms first, and equipment is reserved only after you agree to them.
