Past emergency
FEMA's 2025 declaration for Los Angeles County
FEMA has made 16 major disaster declarations for Los Angeles County since 2000; the latest, DR-4856, wildfires and straight-line winds, was declared on January 8, 2025 after an incident that began January 7, 2025, and it covered Malibu. Wildfire smoke and evacuations can close kitchens, and burned utilities take time to restore. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Malibu stays closed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Malibu
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "DR4856-CA - LA County - DPW - WWD - Saddle Peak Tank and Watermain" (utilities, about $119,000) in Los Angeles County after DR-4856, a wildfire declared January 8, 2025; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Malibu, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
Rebuilding public buildings in Los Angeles County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "RAPID-Pasadena Waldorf School-Mariposa Campuswide Damages" (buildings and equipment, about $14.0 million) in Los Angeles County after DR-4856, a wildfire declared January 8, 2025; 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 Malibu until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Malibu
California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Los Angeles 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 Malibu would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby Westlake Village and Agoura Hills. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Malibu
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Malibu'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
Picture the next event on the scale of FEMA's DR-4856 (wildfires and straight-line winds, declared January 8, 2025): a hospital kitchen in Malibu is closed after smoke damage, and the people it feeds still need their meals.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft 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. 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
Within the first day, the facility shares its meal counts and site photos. Equipment ships once placement is confirmed, and the weekly rental continues until the building kitchen reopens.5. Estimated rental cost
40ft Bulk Kitchen $10,995 + 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer $6,995 + 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $3,995 = $21,985 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.
