What public records show for food service in Ionia

  1. Past emergency

    Ionia and DR-4386

    The most recent federal disaster on record for Chickasaw County, which includes Ionia is DR-4386, severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared August 20, 2018. Chickasaw County has had 10 major disaster declarations since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Ionia stays closed.

  2. Major construction

    Public works repair in Chickasaw County

    FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "(PW# 69) CHBRC12 - Aggregate Loss #1" (roads and bridges, about $214,000) in Chickasaw County after DR-4334, a severe storm declared August 27, 2017; 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.

  3. Major renovation

    Kitchen renovations in Ionia

    A kitchen renovation in Ionia usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.

  4. Emergency equipment access

    Getting equipment to Ionia

    Iowa is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Chickasaw 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 Ionia would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Bassett and North Washington. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

  5. Local rental costs

    Kitchen trailer rental costs in Ionia

    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 Ionia, 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 Ionia

A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Ionia'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

    Suppose a hospital kitchen in Ionia loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4386 (severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared August 20, 2018). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
  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.
