What public records show for food service in Alma
Past emergency
Alma and DR-4641
The most recent federal disaster on record for Harlan County, which includes Alma is DR-4641, severe storms, straight-line winds, and tornadoes, declared February 23, 2022. Harlan County has had 8 major disaster declarations since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. For a school, care home, or shelter in Alma, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Alma
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Harlan Roads Completed Pre-July Damages" (roads and bridges, about $162,000) in Harlan County after DR-4420, a severe storm declared March 21, 2019; 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 Alma
A kitchen renovation in Alma 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 Alma
Nebraska is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Harlan County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Nebraska are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Alma would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Orleans and Harlan County. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Alma
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Alma'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 hospital kitchen in Alma loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4641 (severe storms, straight-line winds, and tornadoes, declared February 23, 2022). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (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-80 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
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.
