What public records show for food service in Carteret
Past emergency
Carteret and DR-4614
FEMA has made 9 major disaster declarations for Middlesex County since 2000; the latest, DR-4614, remnants of hurricane ida, was declared on September 5, 2021 after an incident that began September 1, 2021, and it covered Carteret. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. 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 Carteret
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Green Brook Pump Station Damages Work Completed" (utilities, about $23.9 million) in Middlesex County after DR-4614, a tropical storm declared September 5, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Carteret, 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
Rebuilding public buildings in Middlesex County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Municipal Building" (buildings and equipment, about $13.4 million) in Middlesex County after DR-4614, a tropical storm declared September 5, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Rebuilding takes months, and meals cannot wait that long. A kitchen trailer and a dish trailer let a facility in Carteret serve on site until it moves back in.
Emergency equipment access

Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. New Jersey is on the East Coast within reach of our Virginia operations, and projects here are quoted case by case. Equipment for Carteret would travel I-95 (New Jersey Turnpike) and local routes, as it would for nearby Linden and Rahway. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: an assisted living community's kitchen in Carteret
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Carteret'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 an assisted living community's kitchen in Carteret schedules a 4-month renovation, upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen, while it keeps serving meals.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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-95 (New Jersey Turnpike) 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
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 4 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.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, or about $63,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
