What public records show for food service in Sterling Heights
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Tornadoes, And Flooding (2024)
FEMA has made 5 major disaster declarations for Macomb County since 2000; the latest, DR-4757, severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding, was declared on February 8, 2024 after an incident that began August 24, 2023, and it covered Sterling Heights. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Sterling Heights, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Sterling Heights
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Macomb County since 2016. When construction near a hospital, school, or care home in Sterling Heights cuts utilities or closes a kitchen in phases, a facility could lease a mobile kitchen trailer and a dishwashing trailer for the length of the work.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Sterling Heights
A kitchen renovation in Sterling Heights 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 Sterling Heights
Michigan is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Macomb County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Michigan are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Sterling Heights would travel I-75 and local routes, as it would for nearby Utica and Fraser. 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 Sterling Heights
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Sterling Heights'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
An assisted living community's kitchen in Sterling Heights plans 4 months of work upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.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-75 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
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
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, or about $87,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
