Mattawa, Washington Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Mattawa sits at about 755 feet along the Columbia River corridor, where Wahluke Slope vineyards and orchards set the rhythm of the year. Platted in 1909, it grew when crews arrived to build the Priest Rapids and Wanapum dams, and its port was formed in 1958. Harvest labor, seasonal housing and the Wahluke School District drive 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 Mattawa site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Mattawa

Where a mobile kitchen helps in Mattawa
Harvest crew housing
Federal H-2A job postings list Mattawa worksites for apple, cherry, grape and pear harvest, and a seasonal farmworker housing complex west of town opened in 2018 with 144 beds in its first phase. An operator housing a crew can use a kitchen trailer, shower units and sleeper units on site.
School kitchen out of service
The Wahluke School District runs the public schools for Mattawa and nearby communities, and it operates a migrant education program for farmworker families. If a school kitchen is closed for repair or a remodel during the year, a kitchen and dishwashing trailer can keep meals going on campus.
Cooler failure during harvest
Orchards and Wahluke Slope vineyards put fruit through the area in a compressed season. If a walk-in cooler or freezer at a packing, storage or food site fails in the middle of harvest, an emergency refrigeration trailer can hold product while repairs are made.

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
Do I need a permit to feed a harvest crew from a kitchen trailer in Grant County?
Food service in Washington is generally overseen by the local health jurisdiction, and mobile or temporary kitchens can carry their own conditions. Contact the Grant County health department before the trailer arrives to confirm what applies to a crew kitchen at your site.
What utilities does a trailer need at an orchard or housing site?
Trailers typically need electrical service, potable water and a plan for wastewater. Orchard and housing sites differ a lot, so describe your site when you call and confirm any requirements with the county health department before setup.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Mattawa 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 Mattawa 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.
