Trailer Kitchen Hire for Care Home Village

Bupa Care, a leading provider of care home services, embarked on a major refurbishment of their primary kitchen facilities at their care village. The refurbishment was necessary to upgrade their equipment, enhance food preparation processes, and improve the overall service experience for their residents.

However, this presented a significant challenge: how to continue providing high-quality meals to residents while the kitchen was out of operation.

To address this, Bupa via their main contractor engaged On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd, a specialist in temporary kitchen solutions. Our team provided a tailored, temporary kitchen setup that allowed Bupa to maintain uninterrupted meal service for their residents throughout the refurbishment period.

Challenges

  • Restricted Access:
    The location of the Bupa Care Village kitchen made it difficult to bring in large, temporary kitchen units. Traditional container kitchens were not feasible due to space and access limitations.
  • Continuous Meal Service:
    The Bupa Care Village needed to ensure that there was no disruption to their meal service during the refurbishment. This required a solution that could handle the production and preparation of meals for a large number of residents without compromising on quality or efficiency.
  • Complex Dietary Requirements:
    The residents at Bupa Care Village have a wide range of dietary needs, requiring a temporary kitchen solution that could support complex and varied meal preparation.
We pride ourselves on meeting every client's specific requirements. Each of our kitchen installations is a bespoke solution designed around your needs.

Bespoke Design

Solution

On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd provided two of their specialised Sprinter trailer kitchens, carefully selected and configured with catering equipment to meet Bupa's unique needs:

  • Production Kitchen Trailer:
    This trailer was fully equipped to handle high-volume meal production. It included commercial-grade cooking appliances, refrigeration, and ample workspace, ensuring that the Bupa team could prepare meals efficiently and safely.
  • Preparation Kitchen Trailer:
    The second trailer was dedicated to meal preparation. It featured extensive counter space, refrigeration, and storage facilities as well as small dishwash facilities and a back-up Rational combination oven enabling the kitchen staff to manage food preparation, including special dietary requirements, with ease.

Execution

  • Delivery and Setup
    The two trailer kitchens were delivered and positioned with precision in the limited space available at the site. Our team coordinated with Bupa's facilities management to ensure a seamless installation, minimising disruption to the care home's daily operations.
  • Custom Configuration
    Each trailer was configured to match Bupa's kitchen workflow, with the layout tailored to optimise efficiency and maintain the high standards of food safety required in a care home environment.
  • Support and Maintenance
    Throughout the 4-week project, On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd provided ongoing support, including regular performance checks to ensure the kitchens operated smoothly. We also remained on standby to address any issues promptly, ensuring continuous operation.
