MOBILE KITCHEN TRAILER (MKT)
OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS
PREPARING THE MKT FOR OPERATION
SITING REQUIREMENTS
This section outlines the siting requirements of the MKT, as well as the installation, preparation, and
operation of the MKT under usual conditions.
The site for the installation of the kitchen should be as level as possible, clear of large rocks and trees,
and located on firm ground with good water drainage. The desirable area for normal operation is 30 feet
by 30 feet with an overhead clearance of at least 11 feet. A minimum of 4 feet should be allowed between
the kitchen (when it is packed up for travel) and any large obstacles in order to have enough room to
expand the unit and install the ramps.
Be sure to orient the kitchen so that the rear entry will be on the side away from the wind.
