What public records show for food service in Dunellen
Past emergency
FEMA's 2021 declaration for Middlesex County
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 Dunellen. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Dunellen stays closed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Dunellen
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. 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
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. 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 Dunellen until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Dunellen
New Jersey is in FEMA Region 2, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Middlesex County emergency management leads response. 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 Dunellen would travel I-95 (New Jersey Turnpike) and local routes, as it would for nearby Middlesex and North Plainfield. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Dunellen
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Dunellen'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 elementary school cafeteria in Dunellen loses power and takes on water in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4614 (remnants of hurricane ida, declared September 5, 2021). 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), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.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. 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
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.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.
