What public records show for food service in Throop
Past emergency
FEMA's 2018 declaration for Lackawanna County
The most recent federal disaster on record for Lackawanna County, which includes Throop is DR-4408, severe storms and flooding, declared November 27, 2018. Lackawanna County has had 9 major disaster declarations since 2000. 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 Throop, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Throop
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. When work like this reaches Throop, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in Throop that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Throop
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Throop 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 Throop

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 Throop would travel I-76 and local routes, as it would for nearby Lackawanna County and Olyphant. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Throop
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Throop'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
Throop's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4408 (severe storms and flooding, declared November 27, 2018). If a repeat left an elementary school cafeteria 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
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.
