Local knowledge and rental situations in Colo, Iowa

Local facilities that rely on Colo kitchens

The city depends on a handful of anchor buildings, from the school cafeteria to a nursing home to the municipal hall, and each one needs a working kitchen or cold room to stay open. Hospitals and clinics serving Colo and Baxter must hold food and medications at safe temperatures, and refrigerated containers for lease in Colo gives them cold storage while a walk-in cooler is repaired. Churches, lodges and community centers in the city that host large meals can bring in portable commercial kitchen trailer rentals for the weeks a hall is closed for repairs. Share the address and what is being renovated, and Emergency Relief Services will help match the equipment to the site.

Getting a trailer to your Colo site

Reaching Colo with a long trailer usually means planning around I-80 or I-35, then the final approach on local streets that may be narrower than they look on a map. Soft ground after rain, overhanging branches and parked cars are the three things that most often change a placement plan in a city like Colo. A quick call from the the city site contact saves hours on delivery day, so we ask for a name and a number up front.

When something fails in Colo: emergency rentals

Emergencies rarely announce themselves. In Colo, a single failed breaker or a flooded basement can close a kitchen, and a regional event such as blizzards can close many at once. After a loss, the first questions are always where to cook, where to keep food cold and where to wash dishes, and trailers answer all three without waiting for construction. If it is after hours, call anyway: emergency requests for Colo are taken around the clock.

Winter planning for Colo

Refrigeration comes as 12 and 20 foot trailers and 20 and 40 foot containers, and which fits depends on the volume you must protect and the ground available. Showers and restrooms are sized by stalls: 3, 6 or 8 individual stalls on the combination trailers, and a 20 ft container with 5 individual stalls. Tell us the date you need the unit and we will confirm what can be arranged for Colo.
