CONTAINERIZED KITCHEN (WITH TRAILER)
OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS
KITCHEN PACKOUT AND PREPARATION FOR TRANSPORT
Introduction
The ISO expandable shelter serves as the primary container for the CK. Upon completion of an
operational deployment, the CK is packed for transport within the shelter. All components must be
packed in the order and locations specified in the following paragraphs to ensure that everything
will fit and to prevent damage during transport.
The packout procedures which follow assume that all foodstuffs and other items not part of the
CK's inventory are removed before initiating packout. In specific tactical situations, however, the
Unit Commander or Unit Standard Operating Procedures may direct that the CK be packed out
and moved with food or other items on board. In such cases, the packout procedures may be
locally modified as required.
With one exception that will be explained later in this Work Package, when a ratchet strap is called
for, place the long strap section toward the mechanical room and the short ratchet section toward
the personnel door. Ensure that the straps are straight. Tighten the straps slightly, move the piece
of equipment slightly to ensure that the straps are secure, then completely tighten the straps.
Figure 15 illustrates the packout locations of the appliances and other major components. Table 2
provides a checklist of the loose items and gives the recommended packout location of each item.
Further information and instructions for packout are provided in the following paragraphs.
