What public records show for food service in Dawes County
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm And Straight-Line Winds (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4786, severe winter storm and straight-line winds, on May 24, 2024 for Dawes County, for an incident that began April 6, 2024. It is one of 6 major disaster declarations covering Dawes County since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Dawes County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Dawes County Roads & Culverts" (roads and bridges, about $203,000) in Dawes County after DR-4420, a severe storm declared March 21, 2019; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Dawes County, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A facility in Dawes County that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Dawes County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Old Barn Building" (buildings and equipment, about $404,000) in Dawes County after DR-4420, a severe storm declared March 21, 2019; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When a public building is repaired after a disaster, its kitchen can be out of service for months. A temporary kitchen on site covers meal service at a school, shelter, or government building in Dawes County until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Dawes County
Nebraska is in FEMA Region 7, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Dawes 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 Dawes County would travel I-80 and local routes, as it would for nearby Whitney and Chadron. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: the county school division's central kitchen in Dawes County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Dawes 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
Suppose the county school division's central kitchen in Dawes County loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4786 (severe winter storm and straight-line winds, declared May 24, 2024). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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-80 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
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 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.
