Local conditions
What public records show for food service in Harper Woods
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Tornadoes, And Flooding (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4757, severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding, on February 8, 2024 for Wayne County, which includes Harper Woods, for an incident that began August 24, 2023. It is one of 6 major disaster declarations covering Wayne County since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. 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 Harper Woods
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Connor Creek Sewer System" (utilities, about $9.9 million) in Wayne County after DR-4607, a severe storm declared July 15, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Harper Woods, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Harper Woods
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Charles H Wright Museum - Building and Contents" (buildings and equipment, about $500,000) in Wayne County after DR-4607, a severe storm declared July 15, 2021; 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 Harper Woods can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Harper Woods
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Harper Woods'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 4-month project at a public high school cafeteria in Harper Woods, regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room, 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-75 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
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 4 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 $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
