What public records show for food service in Upper Arlington
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Flooding, And Landslides (2026)
FEMA has made 10 major disaster declarations for Franklin County since 2000; the latest, DR-4945, severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, flooding, and landslides, was declared on October 2, 2026 after an incident that began August 10, 2026, and it covered Upper Arlington. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Upper Arlington
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Franklin County since 2016. Building work can still close a kitchen in Upper Arlington for weeks, and a leased kitchen trailer keeps the facility's own staff cooking on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Upper Arlington
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Upper Arlington does not have to stop meal service: a kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can run beside the building for the length of the job.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Upper Arlington
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Upper Arlington'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 Upper Arlington floods at ground level in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4945 (severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, flooding, and landslides, declared October 2, 2026). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft 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-70 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
40ft Bulk Kitchen $10,995 + 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer $6,995 + 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $3,995 = $21,985 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.
