What public records show for food service in Hartley
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Flooding, Straight-Line Winds, And Tornadoes (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4796, severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds, and tornadoes, on June 24, 2024 for O'Brien County, which includes Hartley, for an incident that began June 16, 2024. It is one of 8 major disaster declarations covering O'Brien County since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. For a school, care home, or shelter in Hartley, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in O'Brien County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "City of Primghar -Sewer/Transformer Base" (utilities, about $833,000) in O'Brien County after DR-4796, a flood declared June 24, 2024; 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 Hartley
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Hartley 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.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Hartley
Iowa is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, O'Brien 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 Hartley would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Everly and Sanborn. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Hartley
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Hartley'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 public high school cafeteria in Hartley schedules a 4-month renovation, rebuilding its walk-in cooler and freezer, while it keeps serving meals.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (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-80 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
Book while the renovation is being bid, so delivery lands the week before the kitchen closes. The 4-month lease can be extended by the month if the contractor's schedule slips.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, or about $27,560 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
