Major construction
Planning around construction in Strawn
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Livingston County since 2016. A facility in Strawn 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 Strawn
A kitchen renovation in Strawn usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.

Getting equipment to Strawn

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Strawn
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Strawn'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
Strawn's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4116 (severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared May 10, 2013). If a repeat left an elementary school cafeteria there unable to cook, the facility would need a working kitchen outside the building within days.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (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. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen trailer once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.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
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 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.
