What public records show for food service in Leonidas
Past emergency
Leonidas and DR-4797
The most recent federal disaster on record for St. Louis County, which includes Leonidas is DR-4797, severe storms and flooding, declared June 28, 2024. St. Louis County has had 8 major disaster declarations since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Leonidas, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Leonidas
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "County Wide Culvert Damage" (roads and bridges, about $977,000) in St. Louis County after DR-4797, a flood declared June 28, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Leonidas, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. 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 Leonidas
A kitchen renovation in Leonidas 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 Leonidas
Minnesota is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, St. Louis 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 Leonidas would travel I-94 and local routes, as it would for nearby Eveleth and Iron Junction. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Leonidas
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Leonidas'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
Suppose a public high school cafeteria in Leonidas schedules a 3-month renovation, gutting the kitchen down to the slab and rebuilding it, while it keeps serving meals.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (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 trailer takes about 5 hours to connect and start up.4. Timeline
Book while the renovation is being bid, so delivery lands the week before the kitchen closes. The 3-month lease can be extended by the month if the contractor's schedule slips.5. Estimated rental cost
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 per month on our starting price list, or about $20,670 for 3 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
