What public records show for food service in Ball
Past emergency
FEMA's 2021 declaration for Rapides Parish
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4611, hurricane ida, on August 29, 2021 for Rapides Parish, which includes Ball, for an incident that began August 26, 2021. It is one of 16 major disaster declarations covering Rapides Parish since 2000. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Ball
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Utilities lines and poles repair including three transformers" (utilities, about $317,000) in Rapides Parish after DR-4590, a severe storm declared March 9, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Ball, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Ball
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "District #1 Building Repairs" (buildings and equipment, about $176,000) in Rapides Parish after DR-4570, a hurricane declared October 16, 2020; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs like this often include the building's kitchen or the power that feeds it. A school or senior center in Ball can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Ball
Louisiana is in FEMA Region 6, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Rapides Parish emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Louisiana are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Ball would travel I-10 and local routes, as it would for nearby Creola and Pineville. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a restaurant kitchen on the main street in Ball
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Ball'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
Picture the next event on the scale of FEMA's DR-4611 (hurricane ida, declared August 29, 2021): a restaurant kitchen on the main street in Ball loses power and takes on water, and the people it feeds still need their meals.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-10 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
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. 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.
