Where a mobile kitchen helps in Pe Ell
River Run and festival days
The Pe Ell River Run began in 1978 and floats the Chehalis from town to Rainbow Falls State Park. Organizers who need to feed participants and volunteers, with washing capacity for serving ware, can add a mobile kitchen and dishwashing trailer.
Flood and landslide isolation
The December 2007 storm raised the Chehalis about 50 feet near Pe Ell, destroyed the town water main, and shut an 8-mile stretch of SR 6 for months. A mobile kitchen and restrooms can support residents and repair crews when road access and water service are lost.
School meals during repairs
The Pe Ell School District serves students from preschool through 12th grade, including those from outlying areas. If the school kitchen is out of service after a flood, outage, or equipment loss, a mobile kitchen can continue meal service until it is restored.

- Flood recovery crew meals and restrooms
- School kitchen backup during repairs
Delivery from our Olympia warehouse to Pe Ell
We keep equipment in Olympia, the Washington capital, and plan every delivery from there. Pe Ell is about 35 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 Pe Ell
From Olympia, take I-5 south to the SR 6 interchange and follow SR 6 west into Pe Ell. The road follows the Chehalis River, and a landslide closed an 8-mile stretch after the December 2007 storm. Check WSDOT for current closures before dispatch.
The closest towns we serve are Chehalis (about 17 miles), Winlock (18 miles), and Oakville (19 miles).

Emergency deployment, any hour
The December 2007 coastal gale flooded the Chehalis near Pe Ell, took out the water main, and shut SR 6 for months. Heavy-rain flooding, slides, and outages are when 24/7 deployment of kitchens, restrooms, and refrigeration applies.

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 agency issues food permits in Lewis County?
Lewis County Public Health and Social Services runs the food safety program and offers a temporary food establishment application, due about two weeks before the event. Contact the county to confirm what a trailer-based kitchen needs. Online food permit applications were set to begin in March 2026.
Is the route reliable in winter storms?
SR 6 follows the Chehalis River and has been closed by flooding and slides, including after the 2007 storm. Check WSDOT before dispatch and expect that heavy rain can close or slow the route on short notice.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Pe Ell 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 Pe Ell 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.
