What public records show for food service in Altamont
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm And Snowstorm (2011)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-1960, severe winter storm and snowstorm, on March 17, 2011 for Effingham County, which includes Altamont, for an incident that began January 31, 2011. It is one of 3 major disaster declarations covering Effingham County since 2000. 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 Altamont stays closed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Altamont
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Effingham County since 2016. A facility in Altamont 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 Altamont
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Altamont does not have to stop meal service: a kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can run beside the building for the length of the job.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Altamont
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Altamont'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
A public high school cafeteria in Altamont plans 4 months of work upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.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-55 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
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 4 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.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, or about $27,560 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
