Upton, Wyoming Mobile Kitchen Trailer Rentals and Dishwashing Trailers
Upton began in the late 1880s as a ranching supply stop called Irontown and took its current name in 1901. At 4,239 feet on US 16 in Weston County, it has long relied on the BNSF railroad, along with the school district and a family clinic. Many residents commute about 75 miles to coal mines.
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 Upton site.

What the conditions mean for a rental in Upton
Delivery from Cheyenne
About 205 miles in a straight line from our Cheyenne warehouse. That is a regional delivery: we confirm the road route, any seasonal limits, and the timing when we quote.
Where a mobile kitchen helps in Upton
Wildfire evacuations and response
In late July 2026 the Ponderosa Fire east of Upton destroyed a home, put residents within a mile under a GO order, and closed US 16 for a night, with the Upton Community Center as the gathering point. Evacuees and responders need meals, which a mobile kitchen can supply at a central site.
Rail and line crews
BNSF has been the main employer here since the early days, and fires along the railroad corridor have drawn local response. Contractors and maintenance crews working the line for days at a time could use a kitchen trailer, showers, or sleeper units when no lodging or restaurant fits the shift.
School kitchen downtime
Weston County School District #7 runs three campuses in Upton, from elementary through high school. During a kitchen renovation or an equipment failure, a temporary kitchen trailer and a dishwashing unit can keep school meal service running on site until the permanent kitchen is back in use.
- Wildfire evacuee and responder meal service
- Railroad and contractor crew feeding
- School kitchen backup during repairs
Delivery from our Cheyenne warehouse to Upton
We keep equipment in Cheyenne, the Wyoming capital, and plan every delivery from there. Upton is about 205 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 Upton
From Cheyenne, drive I-25 north to WYO 59, follow WYO 59 north to I-90, then take US 16 east to Upton. US 16 near Upton was closed during the July 2026 fire, and winter weather can slow I-90, so check Wyoming 511 before the trailer moves.
If your project spans more than one site, Moorcroft, about 19 miles from Upton, and Pine Haven, about 19 miles, can be planned on the same delivery, as can Sundance at 25 miles.
Open 24/7
Emergency deployment, any hour
Grass and brush fires have forced evacuations around Upton more than once, including in 2012 and again in July 2026, when US 16 was shut. Our 24/7 emergency deployment can support evacuee and responder meals or replace a failed cooler.

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
Who permits a mobile kitchen in Weston County?
Wyoming Department of Agriculture Consumer Health Services generally licenses food establishments and temporary events. Check with them and with Weston County emergency management or the town if the trailer will support an emergency response, since local approval and site rules may apply.
What if a fire closes US 16 during delivery?
WYDOT closes highways when fire behavior makes them unsafe, as happened on US 16 near Upton in July 2026. Check Wyoming 511 for current closures and tell us your site address, and we will plan around which roads are open.
Can you deploy a kitchen to Upton in an emergency?
Call (888) 385-5513 at any hour and we begin planning on that call. Trailers leave from our Cheyenne warehouse, and the delivery time to Upton 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.
