What public records show for food service in Mercersburg
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm And Snowstorm (2016)
FEMA has made 7 major disaster declarations for Franklin County since 2000; the latest, DR-4267, severe winter storm and snowstorm, was declared on March 23, 2016 after an incident that began January 22, 2016, and it covered Mercersburg. Heavy snow closes roads and can collapse roofs or cut power to institutional kitchens. 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 Mercersburg
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Franklin County since 2016. When construction near a hospital, school, or care home in Mercersburg cuts utilities or closes a kitchen in phases, a facility could lease a mobile kitchen trailer and a dishwashing trailer for the length of the work.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Mercersburg
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Mercersburg 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.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: an assisted living community's kitchen in Mercersburg
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Mercersburg'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 Mercersburg plans 4 months of work regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room. 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-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
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 4 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.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.
