What public records show for food service in Harpers Ferry

  1. Past emergency

    Harpers Ferry and DR-4732

    FEMA declared major disaster DR-4732, flooding, on August 25, 2023 for Allamakee County, which includes Harpers Ferry, for an incident that began April 24, 2023. It is one of 14 major disaster declarations covering Allamakee 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 Harpers Ferry stays closed.

  2. Major construction

    Road and utility work near Harpers Ferry

    FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Utility Equipment" (utilities, about $358,000) in Allamakee County after DR-4421, a severe storm declared March 23, 2019; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Harpers Ferry, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.

  3. Major renovation

    Kitchen renovations in Harpers Ferry

    Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Harpers Ferry 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.

  4. Emergency equipment access

    Getting equipment to Harpers Ferry

    Iowa is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Allamakee County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Iowa are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Harpers Ferry would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Waterville and Marquette. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

  5. Local rental costs

    Kitchen trailer rental costs in Harpers Ferry

    Starting monthly rates on our current price list: mobile kitchen trailers $4,995 / month, dishwashing trailers $4,995 / month, and refrigerated trailers $1,895 / month. Delivery to Harpers Ferry, setup, and pickup are quoted for your site, including the distance from Virginia. See the full price reference.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project

Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Harpers Ferry

A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Harpers Ferry'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. 1. Situation

    Picture the next event on the scale of FEMA's DR-4732 (flooding, declared August 25, 2023): a hospital kitchen in Harpers Ferry floods at ground level, and the people it feeds still need their meals.
  2. 2. Trailer setup

    A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.
  3. 3. Site and delivery

    Equipment would travel the I-80 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. 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. 5. Estimated rental cost

    28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 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.
