What public records show for food service in Swaledale
Past emergency
Swaledale and DR-4386
The most recent federal disaster on record for Cerro Gordo County, which includes Swaledale is DR-4386, severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared August 20, 2018. Cerro Gordo County has had 5 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 Swaledale stays closed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Swaledale
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "DR4386 Cerro Gordo Sec Road & Culvert Repairs" (roads and bridges, about $224,000) in Cerro Gordo County after DR-4386, a severe storm declared August 20, 2018; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Swaledale, 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.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Swaledale
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Swaledale can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Swaledale
Iowa is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Cerro Gordo 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 Swaledale would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Thornton and Rockwell. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Swaledale
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Swaledale'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 hospital kitchen in Swaledale 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. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (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-80 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Plan on roughly 5 hours from parking to cooking for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.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.
