What public records show for food service in Ketchikan
Past emergency
Landslides (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4846, landslides, on November 13, 2024 for Ketchikan Gateway Borough, which includes Ketchikan, for an incident that began August 25, 2024. It is one of 2 major disaster declarations covering Ketchikan Gateway Borough since 2000. Declared disasters like this can interrupt power, water, and road access to commercial kitchens. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Ketchikan
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "DR 4846-AK City of Ketchikan- 3rd Ave Road Repair" (roads and bridges, about $717,000) in Ketchikan Gateway Borough after DR-4846, a mud/landslide declared November 13, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Ketchikan, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Ketchikan
A kitchen renovation in Ketchikan usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Ketchikan
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Ketchikan's own public records and our current price list. It describes what a facility like this could do, not a job we have done.
1. Situation
A 2-month project at a public high school cafeteria in Ketchikan, gutting the kitchen down to the slab and rebuilding it, would leave the building without a usable kitchen from the first day of demolition.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the AK-1 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Plan on roughly 5 hours from parking to cooking for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 2 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.5. Estimated rental cost
28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 per month on our starting price list, or about $23,770 for 2 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
