What public records show for food service in Gloucester
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm And Snowstorm (2018)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4379, severe winter storm and snowstorm, on July 19, 2018 for Essex County, which includes Gloucester, for an incident that began March 13, 2018. It is one of 13 major disaster declarations covering Essex County since 2000. Heavy snow closes roads and can collapse roofs or cut power to institutional kitchens. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Gloucester stays closed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Gloucester
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Ferry Lane Culverts and Parking Lot" (roads and bridges, about $135,000) in Essex County after DR-4372, a severe storm declared June 25, 2018; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Gloucester, 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 Gloucester
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Gloucester 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 Gloucester
Massachusetts is in FEMA Region 1, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Essex County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Massachusetts is on the East Coast within reach of our Virginia operations, and projects here are quoted case by case. Equipment for Gloucester would travel I-90 and local routes, as it would for nearby Essex County and Beverly. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: an assisted living community's kitchen in Gloucester
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Gloucester'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 2-month project at an assisted living community's kitchen in Gloucester, rebuilding its walk-in cooler and freezer, would leave the building without a usable kitchen from the first day of demolition.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-90 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
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 2 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.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 $31,970 for 2 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
