What public records show for food service in Wood River
Past emergency
Wood River and DR-4461
The most recent federal disaster on record for Madison County, which includes Wood River is DR-4461, severe storms and flooding, declared September 19, 2019. Madison County has had 5 major disaster declarations since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Wood River, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Madison County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Riverview Drive Retaining Wall" (roads and bridges, about $5.0 million) in Madison County after DR-4461, a severe storm declared September 19, 2019; 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. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Wood River
A kitchen renovation in Wood River usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Wood River
Illinois is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Madison 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 Wood River would travel I-55 and local routes, as it would for nearby East Alton and Bethalto. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Wood River
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Wood River'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 4-month project at a public high school cafeteria in Wood River, replacing its exhaust hood and cooking line, would leave the building without a usable kitchen from the first day of demolition.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.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
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 4 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.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, or about $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
