What public records show for food service in Monroe County
Past emergency
FEMA's 2023 declaration for Monroe County
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4728, severe storms and flooding, on August 15, 2023 for Monroe County, for an incident that began June 29, 2023. It is one of 7 major disaster declarations covering Monroe County since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Public works repair in Monroe County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Storm Restoration" (utilities, about $241,000) in Monroe County after DR-4728, a severe storm declared August 15, 2023; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs to roads, water systems, and utilities like this can cut service to kitchens nearby or change truck access, so we check the route before delivery. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Monroe County
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Monroe County 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 Monroe County
Illinois is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Monroe County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Illinois are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Monroe County would travel I-55 and local routes, as it would for nearby Maeystown and Waterloo. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a nursing and rehabilitation center in Monroe County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Monroe 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-4728 (severe storms and flooding, declared August 15, 2023): a nursing and rehabilitation center in Monroe County loses power for several days, and the people it feeds still need their meals.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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-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 and dish trailers take about 5 hours to connect and start up.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.
