What public records show for food service in San Dimas
Past emergency
Wildfires And Straight-Line Winds (2025)
The most recent federal disaster on record for Los Angeles County, which includes San Dimas is DR-4856, wildfires and straight-line winds, declared January 8, 2025. Los Angeles County has had 16 major disaster declarations since 2000. Wildfire smoke and evacuations can close kitchens, and burned utilities take time to restore. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Repair projects around San Dimas
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 San Dimas, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in San Dimas that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
After the damage: 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 San Dimas until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access

Equipment for San Dimas would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby La Verne and Glendora. 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 San Dimas
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using San Dimas'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 San Dimas schedules a 3-month renovation, regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room, 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), 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 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.
