What public records show for food service in Hillsborough County
Past emergency
Hurricane Milton (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4834, hurricane milton, on October 11, 2024 for Hillsborough County, for an incident that began October 5, 2024. It is one of 14 major disaster declarations covering Hillsborough County since 2000. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. For a school, care home, or shelter in Hillsborough County, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Hillsborough County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Pond Outfall Structures" (water control facilities, about $390,000) in Hillsborough County after DR-4834, a hurricane declared October 11, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Hillsborough County, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in Hillsborough County that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
After the damage: buildings in Hillsborough County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Expo Hall" (buildings and equipment, about $988,000) in Hillsborough County after DR-4834, a hurricane declared October 11, 2024; 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 Hillsborough County until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Hillsborough County
Florida is in FEMA Region 4, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Hillsborough County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Florida is on the East Coast within reach of our Virginia operations, and projects here are quoted case by case. Equipment for Hillsborough County would travel I-95 and local routes, as it would for nearby Tampa and Temple Terrace. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: the county school division's central kitchen in Hillsborough County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Hillsborough County'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-4834 (hurricane milton, declared October 11, 2024): the county school division's central kitchen in Hillsborough County loses power and takes on water, 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), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-95 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
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.
