What public records show for food service in Lathrop
Past emergency
FEMA's 2023 declaration for San Joaquin County
FEMA has made 7 major disaster declarations for San Joaquin County since 2000; the latest, DR-4699, severe winter storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, was declared on April 3, 2023 after an incident that began February 21, 2023, and it covered Lathrop. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. For a school, care home, or shelter in Lathrop, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Lathrop
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Standard Work - Cat D - Levee Erosion - Severe Storms/Flooding - Reclamation District #0548 - Terminus Tract" (water control facilities, about $713,000) in San Joaquin County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Lathrop, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in Lathrop that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Lathrop
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Vehicle Damage - Fire Truck Ladder" (buildings and equipment, about $980,000) in San Joaquin County after DR-4683, a severe storm declared January 14, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When a public building is repaired after a disaster, its kitchen can be out of service for months. A temporary kitchen on site covers meal service at a school, shelter, or government building in Lathrop until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Lathrop
California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, San Joaquin 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 Lathrop would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby Manteca and San Joaquin County. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hotel and conference center kitchen in Lathrop
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Lathrop'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 hotel and conference center kitchen in Lathrop loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4699 (severe winter storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared April 3, 2023). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.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. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.4. Timeline
Day 1: call the 24/7 line and send photos of the placement area. Next: delivery and setup once placement is confirmed. Then: cooking from the trailer while the kitchen is repaired, extended by the week if repairs run long.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 for a one-month emergency rental. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
