Mobile Kitchen Trailer / Container
Gunnison hosts Cattlemen's Days, a ten-day July rodeo, and a university campus, and event meals are the work a kitchen does. Mobile kitchen trailers lead our Gunnison rentals.

Gunnison sits at 7,710 feet where U.S. 50 and State Highway 135 meet, and winter storms, hard cold, wildfire, and long outages can disrupt a city of 6,560. A mobile kitchen trailer keeps meals going, and restrooms and sleepers support crews that respond.
24/7 Emergency Remote Man Camp Basecamp leasing in Gunnison provides sleepers, showers, laundry, and restroom trailers on generator power.
Major History: A Railroad, a Flu, and a University
The railroad reached Gunnison in 1880, and in 1918 and 1919 the city isolated itself during the flu pandemic. Western Colorado University anchors the economy, and Hartman Rocks draws riders. Highway, utility, and campus contractors rent sleepers, combos, and laundry near the work.

Emergency Equipment Access in Gunnison
U.S. 50 and State Highway 135 serve Gunnison, with mountain passes on several sides. Winter weather and altitude shape delivery planning, so we carry chains. These are public routes; our deliveries are scheduled around current conditions.
Cattlemen's Days and Trail Season
Cattlemen's Days, a ten-day July rodeo, fills the city, and Hartman Rocks brings mountain bikers through the season. Hosts rent kitchens, restroom trailers, and refrigerated trailers for rent in Gunnison.
Gunnison Weather and Site Planning
Gunnison has long, cold winters and mild summers. Winter sites need heat, tie-downs, and plowed access. A Remote Workforce Housing Shower Laundry Bunkbed Sleeper trailer in Gunnison setup for crews can share water and wastewater.

Planning a Trailer Site in Gunnison
Send us the address, dates, guest or meal count, and a photo of the pad. For a kitchen we confirm water, drain, gas or electric, and a clear pad before delivery. Our Portland, Oregon hub delivers into Colorado on request, and delivery is listed separately on the written quote. A written quote lists each unit and the delivery and setup.
Short-Term and Long-Term Leasing in Gunnison
Most Gunnison customers start with a week or a month and extend as the work runs. Longer terms are cheaper per unit: a 20ft accommodation unit is an estimated $2,995 for 1 to 6 days and an estimated $2,195 to $2,495 for three months or more. If your Gunnison County project slips, tell us and we adjust the lease rather than pulling units. Delivery, setup, and pickup are quoted on their own line.
Permits and Site Considerations in Gunnison
Temporary trailers in Gunnison may need review by the city or Gunnison County. University property has its own rules, and food-service units are reviewed by county public health. We help you identify what your site needs before delivery.
Delivery, Setup, and Pickup in Gunnison
Our crew plans each Gunnison delivery around U.S. 50 and State Highway 135. Plan on about an hour to set most units, about five hours for a kitchen or dish trailer, 5 to 15 minutes for stairs, and four to six hours for ramps. You get one schedule covering delivery, setup, servicing, and pickup in Gunnison County. Worth knowing: snow and passes can change timing, so we carry chains.
Power, Water, and Wastewater Planning in Gunnison
Tell us what is on site in Gunnison and we match the plan to it. Shower containers need 120V/240V at 200 amps, laundry trailers 240V single phase at 200 amps, kitchens 220V single phase at 200 to 220 amps, and refrigerated trailers 220V at 40 to 60 amps. Where there are no hookups, generator trailers, water tanks, and greywater bladders with scheduled pump-outs make the camp self-sufficient.
Ten Days of Rodeo
Cattlemen's Days runs ten days each July and brings thousands of visitors to the city. Organizers need restrooms at the arena and a kitchen for volunteer meals. We place units where they serve the crowd, service them midday, and remove them when the rodeo ends.
Isolation in the Flu Year
In 1918 and 1919 Gunnison isolated itself during the flu pandemic, a reminder that a mountain town can be cut off for reasons other than snow. Today, the lesson for planning is the same: a basecamp stocked with beds, showers, a kitchen, and cold storage keeps a response going when a town is isolated. We build the camp to the incident commander's plan.
Scenario: A Rodeo Week
Imagine a ten-day rodeo with several thousand visitors on peak days. A 28ft mobile kitchen for the volunteer groups, restroom trailers near the arena and midway, and a refrigerated trailer for vendors, serviced daily, would support the event. That is the mobile kitchen trailer lease in Gunnison we can plan from the organizer's estimate.
