What public records show for food service in Clarks Summit
Past emergency
Clarks Summit and DR-4408
FEMA has made 9 major disaster declarations for Lackawanna County since 2000; the latest, DR-4408, severe storms and flooding, was declared on November 27, 2018 after an incident that began August 10, 2018, and it covered Clarks Summit. 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 Clarks Summit, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Lackawanna County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Multiple Sites (Roaring Brook Upper Debris Basin; Roaring Brook @ Iron Furnaces; Lackawanna River @ Roaring Brook; Lackawanna River Upstream" (roads and bridges, about $1.9 million) in Lackawanna County after DR-4408, a flood declared November 27, 2018; 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
Kitchen renovations in Clarks Summit
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Clarks Summit can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Clarks Summit
Pennsylvania is in FEMA Region 3, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Lackawanna County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Pennsylvania is on the East Coast within reach of our Virginia operations, and projects here are quoted case by case. Equipment for Clarks Summit would travel I-76 and local routes, as it would for nearby Clarks Green and Dalton. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a restaurant kitchen on the main street in Clarks Summit
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Clarks Summit'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
Clarks Summit's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4408 (severe storms and flooding, declared November 27, 2018). If a repeat left a restaurant kitchen on the main street there unable to cook, the facility would need a working kitchen outside the building within days.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-76 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
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.
