What public records show for food service in Gilby
Past emergency
Gilby and DR-4895
The most recent federal disaster on record for Grand Forks County, which includes Gilby is DR-4895, severe storms, straight-line winds, and tornadoes, declared October 22, 2025. Grand Forks County has had 18 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 Gilby, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Gilby
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Minnkota Power Cooperative (MPC-22161) - 345kV - Barnes, Kidder, Stutsman Counties - Restoration of electrical transmission power systems-Wo" (utilities, about $5.1 million) in Grand Forks County after DR-4895, a severe storm declared October 22, 2025; 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 Grand Forks County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Grand Forks Public Schools--Work Completed-Multiple Sites" (buildings and equipment, about $165,000) in Grand Forks County after DR-4475, a flood declared January 21, 2020; 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 Gilby until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Gilby
North Dakota is in FEMA Region 8, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Grand Forks County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in North Dakota are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Gilby would travel I-94 and local routes, as it would for nearby Forest River and Inkster. 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 Gilby
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Gilby'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
An assisted living community's kitchen in Gilby plans 2 months of work upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft 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-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, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 2 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.5. Estimated rental cost
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 per month on our starting price list, or about $13,780 for 2 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
