You can choose exactly what you want inside from our extensive range of kitchen equipment and we can help you decide. We have a some tried and tested kitchen formats that we can share with you and you can even come and visit us to map out your layout before delivery.

It is important that enough level space to accommodate the number of temporary kitchens is available. Heavy goods vehicles with cranes will be used to transport and deliver the units, so the area will need to be accessible. A site survey will usually be carried out before delivery. It is also necessary to think about power and services needed. Your temporary kitchen will need access to water, electricity and/or gas, and waste facilities or if these utilities are not within easy reach, Jongor Hire can connect to temporary facilities such as generators, water tanks and portable gas.

At Jongor Hire, we provide a full installation service as part of the supply package. Using our engineers, we can supply and connect to utilities, whether these be fixed or temporary supplies.

We will create a delivery and collection schedule for your temporary kitchen to suit requirements. At Jongor Hire, we have national coverage and can deliver 24/7. Units will be delivered on a HIAB lorry which is a flatbed truck with an in-built crane. 

Our experienced design team can offer guidance on effective temporary kitchen designs either bespoke to you or a previously tried and tested setup. We can connect to existing buildings, supply non-food cabin units and link them all together with weatherproof link corridors, including steps and access ramps. This is all designed on CAD and includes utility connections and requirements.

Yes, we can offer these and will be able to advise on what is required after a site inspection

  • Kitchen units can have either electric or gas as their core power supply for cooking, although all units need a minimum of a 63 amp single phase electrical supply to run the house services such as lighting, 13 amp sockets, extraction and hot water
  • If gas is the main power supply for cooking, this can be supplied from our LPG bottles or a connection to a Nat Gas mains supply
  • If electric is the main power supply for cooking, then this will require a 100 amp three phase supply, in addition to the 63 amp house supply. This can be supplied by Jongor or a third party
  • Water supply can be from mains or from a water bowser supplied by Jongor or a third party, with the minimum water pressure being 2.3 bar for the kitchen to be commissioned
  • Waste water can be ducted into a local mains drains or a waste water tank via pump, supplied by Jongor or third party

We can support you with all of these elements during the consultation and site survey process.

At Jongor Hire, we always have an engineer on-call to help you with an equipment breakdown. Just call us and we will work with you to turn around the issue as quickly as possible. We normally repair equipment on the same or next day.

The final cost of a temporary kitchen is dependent on several factors including:

  • The length of time, number and size of the units required
  • Delivery, installation and collection
  • Temporary power and water supplies
  • Linking, ramps and security

Speak to one of our kitchen experts for a quotation tailored to you. For large, complex setups, a site visit will usually be required before a full quote can be given.

Depending on availability and the complexity, we can usually have temporary kitchen delivered and up and running within 48 hours of the initial enquiry. However, most projects are a number of weeks in the planning.

This depends on many factors but there is no minimum or maximum hire period at Jongor Hire. Rental of a temporary solution spreads the cost and reduces risk and Jongor Hire undertake the maintenance of the units and internal equipment throughout the entire hire period. We will also collect the units on the desired date; meaning no need to look for a buyer, negotiate a sale or have the seller’s liability that the units are safe for sale. However, if you are looking for a long term solution, have your own engineers and are able to commit to significant up front costs, an outright purchase could be a sensible option for you.
 

There is no minimum hire period for a Jongor temporary kitchen.
