What public records show for food service in Ward 6
Past emergency
FEMA's 2016 declaration for District of Columbia
FEMA has made 12 major disaster declarations for District of Columbia since 2000; the latest, DR-4260, snowstorm, was declared on March 4, 2016 after an incident that began January 22, 2016, and it covered Ward 6. Heavy snow closes roads and can collapse roofs or cut power to institutional kitchens. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Ward 6 stays closed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Ward 6
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for District of Columbia since 2016. A facility in Ward 6 planning an addition or a utility upgrade can book a temporary kitchen for the phases when its own is shut.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Ward 6
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Ward 6 can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Ward 6
District of Columbia is in FEMA Region 3, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, District of Columbia emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. District of Columbia borders Virginia, our lead market, so projects here are planned much like our Virginia work. Equipment for Ward 6 would travel I-95 (Capital Beltway) and local routes, as it would for nearby Ward 2 and Ward 8. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs
Kitchen trailer rental costs in Ward 6
Starting monthly rates on our current price list: mobile kitchen trailers $4,995 / month, dishwashing trailers $4,995 / month, and refrigerated trailers $1,895 / month. Delivery to Ward 6, setup, and pickup are quoted for your site, including the distance from Virginia. See the full price reference.
Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Ward 6
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Ward 6'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-4260 (snowstorm, declared March 4, 2016): an elementary school cafeteria in Ward 6 loses power and road access under heavy snow, 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), 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-95 (Capital Beltway) 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
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
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.
