What public records show for food service in St. Helena
Past emergency
St. Helena and DR-4699
The most recent federal disaster on record for Napa County, which includes St. Helena is DR-4699, severe winter storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared April 3, 2023. Napa County has had 15 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 St. Helena
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Piping Work To Be Completed" (utilities, about $911,000) in Napa County after DR-4569, a wildfire declared October 16, 2020; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches St. Helena, 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
Public building repairs near St. Helena
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Replace Police Department Shooting Range" (buildings and equipment, about $140,000) in Napa County after DR-4569, a wildfire declared October 16, 2020; 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 St. Helena serve on site until it moves back in.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to St. Helena
California is in FEMA Region 9, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Napa 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 St. Helena would travel I-5 and local routes, as it would for nearby Napa County and Calistoga. 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 St. Helena
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using St. Helena'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 St. Helena schedules a 4-month renovation, regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room, while it keeps serving meals.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (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. 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
28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 per month on our starting price list, or about $47,540 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
