What public records show for food service in Albany
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (2023)
The most recent federal disaster on record for Alameda County, which includes Albany is DR-4699, severe winter storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared April 3, 2023. Alameda County has had 8 major disaster declarations since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. 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 Albany
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "City of Oakland Sewer" (utilities, about $158,000) in Alameda County after DR-4699, a severe storm declared April 3, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs to roads, water systems, and utilities like this can cut service to kitchens nearby or change truck access, so we check the route before delivery. A facility in Albany that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
After the damage: buildings in Alameda County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Del Valle Marina" (buildings and equipment, about $2.6 million) in Alameda County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Rebuilding takes months, and meals cannot wait that long. A kitchen trailer and a dish trailer let a facility in Albany serve on site until it moves back in.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Albany
California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Alameda County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in California are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Albany would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby Berkeley and El Cerrito. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Albany
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Albany'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
Suppose a public high school cafeteria in Albany schedules a 4-month renovation, replacing its exhaust hood and cooking line, while it keeps serving meals.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-5 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
Book while the renovation is being bid, so delivery lands the week before the kitchen closes. The 4-month lease can be extended by the month if the contractor's schedule slips.5. Estimated rental cost
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 per month on our starting price list, or about $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
