What public records show for food service in Hercules
Past emergency
Hercules and DR-4683
FEMA has made 6 major disaster declarations for Contra Costa County since 2000; the latest, DR-4683, severe winter storms, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, was declared on January 14, 2023 after an incident that began December 27, 2022, and it covered Hercules. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Hercules, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Hercules
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Levee Van Sickle Island" (water control facilities, about $3.8 million) in Contra Costa County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 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 Hercules that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Hercules
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Justin Residential Hall" (buildings and equipment, about $241,000) in Contra Costa County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs like this often include the building's kitchen or the power that feeds it. A school or senior center in Hercules can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Hercules
California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Contra Costa 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 Hercules would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby Pinole and San Pablo. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: an assisted living community's kitchen in Hercules
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Hercules'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 an assisted living community's kitchen in Hercules schedules a 3-month renovation, upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen, 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), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-5 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. On arrival, the refrigerated unit is cold-ready in about an hour, and the kitchen and dish trailers take about 5 hours to connect and start up.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
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 $47,955 for 3 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
