What public records show for food service in Tamaqua
Past emergency
FEMA's 2021 declaration for Schuylkill County
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4618, remnants of hurricane ida, on September 10, 2021 for Schuylkill County, which includes Tamaqua, for an incident that began August 31, 2021. It is one of 9 major disaster declarations covering Schuylkill County since 2000. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Tamaqua stays closed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Schuylkill County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "CAT D Mill Creek Channel Wall Damages" (water control facilities, about $889,000) in Schuylkill County after DR-4618, a hurricane declared September 10, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Tamaqua, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
After the damage: buildings in Schuylkill County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "E - St. Clair Sewer Authority Plant Building, Equipment and Contents damage." (buildings and equipment, about $101,000) in Schuylkill County after DR-4408, a flood declared November 27, 2018; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Rebuilding takes months, and meals cannot wait that long. A kitchen trailer and a dish trailer let a facility in Tamaqua serve on site until it moves back in.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a restaurant kitchen on the main street in Tamaqua
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Tamaqua'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 restaurant kitchen on the main street in Tamaqua loses power and takes on water in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4618 (remnants of hurricane ida, declared September 10, 2021). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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 and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
Day 1: call the 24/7 line and send photos of the placement area. Next: delivery and setup once placement is confirmed. Then: cooking from the trailer while the kitchen is repaired, extended by the week if repairs run long.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.
