What public records show for food service in Maquoketa
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 Jackson County, which includes Maquoketa, for an incident that began June 16, 2024. It is one of 14 major disaster declarations covering Jackson 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 Maquoketa, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Jackson County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Jackson County S. Sabula Causeway Rd & Spruce Creek Rd" (roads and bridges, about $136,000) in Jackson County after DR-4421, a severe storm declared March 23, 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 Maquoketa
A kitchen renovation in Maquoketa 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 Maquoketa
Iowa is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Jackson 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 Maquoketa would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Delmar and Andrew. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hotel and conference center kitchen in Maquoketa
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Maquoketa'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 hotel and conference center kitchen in Maquoketa loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4796 (severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds, and tornadoes, declared June 24, 2024). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.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. 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. Timeline
Within the first day, the facility shares its meal counts and site photos. Equipment ships once placement is confirmed, and the weekly rental continues until the building kitchen reopens.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.
