The kitchen pod on its trailer, ready for delivery.

About

One operator.
One van, one pod.

No call centre, no sub-contractors, no dispatch team you have to negotiate through. The person who takes your call is the same person who delivers, connects and collects the kitchen.

Why this exists

Kitchen renovations don't have to mean six weeks of takeaway.

Most Melbourne kitchen renovations run four to eight weeks. Every one of those weeks is a family cooking on a camping stove in the laundry, or spending the equivalent of a small holiday on delivered dinners.

The Temporary Kitchen Co. is a working kitchen you park outside for the duration. Delivered on a trailer, connected in 45 minutes, collected the day the new kitchen goes in.

How it's run

Owner-operator, on purpose.

One pod, one operator means you get one point of contact for the whole hire and a quote that doesn't have to fund a sales team. It also means bookings are held — if I've committed to your dates, another job doesn't bump you out.

The trade-off: I run one pod. When it's on a job it's not available for another. Book early on peak weeks — Melbourne renovation season runs hard through spring and autumn.
