Low elevation, about 90 feet
At roughly 90 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.

Hamilton, Washington Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Hamilton sits at about 95 feet beside the Skagit River off SR 20 in Skagit County. William Hamilton settled the area in 1877, and the town incorporated in 1891. It lies in the river's floodway and faces significant flooding every few years, including 2003, 2006, 2017, and 2021, which shapes most calls for food service or shelter.
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 Hamilton site.

Where a mobile kitchen helps in Hamilton
Evacuation and shelter meals
In November 2021, Skagit County declared an emergency for Hamilton, and a Red Cross shelter opened at a local church. Residents move furniture upstairs and leave when the river rises. A kitchen trailer can feed evacuees and responders at a shelter without a commercial kitchen.
Cleanup and recovery crews
After floods, cleanup crews and volunteers work in homes without power, water, or restrooms. In December 2023, residents were told to prepare to evacuate. Sleeper units, restrooms, showers, laundry, and a kitchen trailer can support recovery crews near the work.
Highway closure responders
SR 20 closed at Hamilton during the October 2003 flood, with the National Guard staged in town for evacuations. Highway closures leave responders and stranded travelers needing food and rest, which a staged kitchen trailer or sleeper unit can help provide until roads reopen.

- Cleanup and recovery crew support units

Delivery from our Olympia warehouse to Hamilton
We keep equipment in Olympia, the Washington capital, and plan every delivery from there. Hamilton is about 110 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 Hamilton
From Olympia, take I-5 north to SR 20 east into the Skagit Valley; Hamilton lies on SR 20. During river floods the highway has closed at Hamilton, and the North Cascades section farther east closes for winter, so check WSDOT and county alerts and confirm dry access to the site.
The closest towns we serve are Lyman (about 3 miles), Concrete (11 miles), and La Conner (25 miles).
We confirm the exact route and any seasonal limits for your address at quote.

Emergency deployment, any hour
Hamilton faces significant Skagit River flooding every few years. Emergencies were declared for the town in November 2021, and residents were told to prepare to evacuate in December 2023. A 24/7 deployment can feed evacuees and responders when local buildings flood or are cut off.

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
Where can a kitchen trailer be placed in a flood-prone town?
Place trailers on high, stable ground well away from the river, and ask Skagit County emergency management and the town where staging is allowed. Flood status changes quickly, so confirm site access and hookups right before delivery.
Who approves food service for a shelter?
Skagit County Public Health oversees food service in the county, and shelter feeding is often coordinated by emergency management or the Red Cross. Contact the county health department and emergency management to confirm approvals before serving.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Hamilton 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 Olympia warehouse, and we confirm availability and delivery time to Hamilton 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.
