What public records show for food service in Crested Butte
Past emergency
Crested Butte and DR-1421
FEMA has made 2 major disaster declarations for Gunnison County since 2000; the latest, DR-1421, wildfires, was declared on June 19, 2002 after an incident that began April 23, 2002, and it covered Crested Butte. 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
Planning around construction in Crested Butte
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Gunnison County since 2016. Building work can still close a kitchen in Crested Butte for weeks, and a leased kitchen trailer keeps the facility's own staff cooking on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Crested Butte
A kitchen renovation in Crested Butte usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Crested Butte
Colorado is in FEMA Region 8, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Gunnison County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Colorado are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Crested Butte would travel I-25 and local routes, as it would for nearby Mount Crested Butte and Gunnison County. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Crested Butte
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Crested Butte'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 elementary school cafeteria in Crested Butte is closed after smoke damage in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-1421 (wildfires, declared June 19, 2002). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-25 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 trailer takes about 5 hours to connect and start up.4. Timeline
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.5. Estimated rental cost
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 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.
