What public records show for food service in Buffalo Grove
Past emergency
Buffalo Grove and DR-4116
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4116, severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, on May 10, 2013 for Lake County, which includes Buffalo Grove, for an incident that began April 16, 2013. It is one of 5 major disaster declarations covering Lake County since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Buffalo Grove stays closed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Buffalo Grove
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Lake County since 2016. A facility in Buffalo Grove 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 Buffalo Grove
A kitchen renovation in Buffalo Grove usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a restaurant kitchen on the main street in Buffalo Grove
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Buffalo Grove'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 restaurant kitchen on the main street in Buffalo Grove floods at ground level in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4116 (severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared May 10, 2013). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-55 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
Day 1: call the 24/7 line and send photos of the placement area. Next: delivery and setup once placement is confirmed. Then: cooking from the trailer while the kitchen is repaired, extended by the week if repairs run long.5. Estimated rental cost
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 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.
