What public records show for food service in Somerville
Past emergency
FEMA's 2018 declaration for Middlesex County
The most recent federal disaster on record for Middlesex County, which includes Somerville is DR-4379, severe winter storm and snowstorm, declared July 19, 2018. Middlesex County has had 12 major disaster declarations 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 Somerville stays closed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Somerville
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Everett culvert - 34 Market St." (roads and bridges, about $469,000) in Middlesex County after DR-4379, a winter storm declared July 19, 2018; 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 Somerville
A kitchen renovation in Somerville 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 Somerville
Massachusetts is in FEMA Region 1, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Middlesex 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 Somerville would travel I-90 and local routes, as it would for nearby Cambridge and Medford. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Somerville
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Somerville'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
Somerville's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4379 (severe winter storm and snowstorm, declared July 19, 2018). If a repeat left a hospital kitchen there unable to cook, the facility would need a working kitchen outside the building within days.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (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-90 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.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
40ft Bulk Kitchen $10,995 + 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer $6,995 + 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $3,995 = $21,985 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.
