What public records show for food service in Saxman
Past emergency
FEMA's 2024 declaration for Ketchikan Gateway Borough
The most recent federal disaster on record for Ketchikan Gateway Borough, which includes Saxman is DR-4846, landslides, declared November 13, 2024. Ketchikan Gateway Borough has had 2 major disaster declarations since 2000. Declared disasters like this can interrupt power, water, and road access to commercial kitchens. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Saxman stays closed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Saxman
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 Saxman, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in Saxman that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Saxman
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Saxman can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Saxman
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Saxman'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 public high school cafeteria in Saxman plans 3 months of work rebuilding its walk-in cooler and freezer. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft 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. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen trailer once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.4. Timeline
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 3 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.5. Estimated rental cost
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 per month on our starting price list, or about $20,670 for 3 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
