What public records show for food service in Thompson
Past emergency
FEMA's 2024 declaration for Susquehanna County
FEMA has made 11 major disaster declarations for Susquehanna County since 2000; the latest, DR-4815, tropical storm debby, was declared on September 11, 2024 after an incident that began August 9, 2024, and it covered Thompson. Declared disasters like this can interrupt power, water, and road access to commercial kitchens. For a school, care home, or shelter in Thompson, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Thompson
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Various Roads" (roads and bridges, about $926,000) in Susquehanna County after DR-4815, a tropical storm declared September 11, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Thompson, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A facility in Thompson that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Thompson
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Thompson 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.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Thompson
Pennsylvania is in FEMA Region 3, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Susquehanna 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 Thompson would travel I-76 and local routes, as it would for nearby Starrucca and Susquehanna Depot. 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 Thompson
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Thompson'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
Thompson's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4815 (tropical storm debby, declared September 11, 2024). 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 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.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 trailer takes 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
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 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.
