What public records show for food service in Lake County
Past emergency
Lake County and DR-4797
FEMA has made 7 major disaster declarations for Lake County since 2000; the latest, DR-4797, severe storms and flooding, was declared on June 28, 2024 after an incident that began June 16, 2024, and it covered Lake County. 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
Public works repair in Lake County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Facility Access Cranberry Road & Associated Culverts" (roads and bridges, about $304,000) in Lake County after DR-4797, a flood declared June 28, 2024; 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 Lake County
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Lake County 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 Lake County
Minnesota is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Lake County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Minnesota are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Lake County would travel I-94 and local routes, as it would for nearby Silver Bay and Beaver Bay. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs
Kitchen trailer rental costs in Lake County
Starting monthly rates on our current price list: mobile kitchen trailers $4,995 / month, dishwashing trailers $4,995 / month, and refrigerated trailers $1,895 / month. Delivery to Lake County, setup, and pickup are quoted for your site, including the distance from Virginia. See the full price reference.
Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: the county school division's central kitchen in Lake County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Lake County'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
Picture the next event on the scale of FEMA's DR-4797 (severe storms and flooding, declared June 28, 2024): the county school division's central kitchen in Lake County floods at ground level, and the people it feeds still need their meals.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-94 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
Day 1: call the 24/7 line and send photos of the placement area. Next: delivery and setup once placement is confirmed. Then: cooking from the trailer while the kitchen is repaired, extended by the week if repairs run long.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.
