What public records show for food service in Auburn
Past emergency
FEMA's 2024 declaration for Androscoggin County
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4754, severe storm and flooding, on January 30, 2024 for Androscoggin County, which includes Auburn, for an incident that began December 17, 2023. It is one of 10 major disaster declarations covering Androscoggin County 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 Auburn stays closed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Auburn
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Communitywide Road Damages" (roads and bridges, about $952,000) in Androscoggin County after DR-4754, a flood declared January 30, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Auburn, 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
Kitchen renovations in Auburn
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Auburn 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 Auburn
Maine is in FEMA Region 1, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Androscoggin County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Maine is on the East Coast within reach of our Virginia operations, and projects here are quoted case by case. Equipment for Auburn would travel I-95 and local routes, as it would for nearby Lewiston and Androscoggin County. 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 Auburn
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Auburn'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
A public high school cafeteria in Auburn plans 4 months of work replacing its exhaust hood and cooking line. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-95 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
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 4 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.5. Estimated rental cost
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 per month on our starting price list, or about $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
