What public records show for food service in Lonsdale
Past emergency
Lonsdale and DR-4797
The most recent federal disaster on record for Rice County, which includes Lonsdale is DR-4797, severe storms and flooding, declared June 28, 2024. Rice County has had 7 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 Lonsdale, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Lonsdale
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Rice County Gravel Roads and Culverts" (roads and bridges, about $330,000) in Rice County after DR-4797, a flood declared June 28, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Lonsdale, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Lonsdale
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Lonsdale does not have to stop meal service: a kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can run beside the building for the length of the job.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Lonsdale
Minnesota is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Rice 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 Lonsdale would travel I-94 and local routes, as it would for nearby Elko New Market and Montgomery. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hotel and conference center kitchen in Lonsdale
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Lonsdale'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): a hotel and conference center kitchen in Lonsdale floods at ground level, and the people it feeds still need their meals.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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. 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
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
28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 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.
