What public records show for food service in Highspire
Past emergency
Remnants Of Hurricane Ida (2021)
FEMA has made 9 major disaster declarations for Dauphin County since 2000; the latest, DR-4618, remnants of hurricane ida, was declared on September 10, 2021 after an incident that began August 31, 2021, and it covered Highspire. 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 Highspire
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "D3 Tioga Project 8" (roads and bridges, about $1.1 million) in Dauphin County after DR-4815, a tropical storm declared September 11, 2024; 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 Dauphin County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "APP CERT - 88762 - E - Store 0803 Contents and Equipment" (buildings and equipment, about $101,000) in Dauphin County after DR-4408, a flood declared November 27, 2018; 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 Highspire until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Highspire
Pennsylvania is in FEMA Region 3, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Dauphin County emergency management leads response.

Equipment for Highspire would travel I-76 and local routes, as it would for nearby Steelton and Middletown. 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 Highspire
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Highspire'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 Highspire plans 4 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), 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. 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 4 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 $27,560 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
