What public records show for food service in Florence
Past emergency
Florence and DR-4718
FEMA has made 11 major disaster declarations for Codington County since 2000; the latest, DR-4718, flooding, was declared on July 6, 2023 after an incident that began April 9, 2023, and it covered Florence. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Florence, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Florence
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Culverts and Bridges-Waverly Township" (roads and bridges, about $243,000) in Codington County after DR-4718, a flood declared July 6, 2023; 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
Public building repairs near Florence
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Hangar 4 Totally Destroyed & Demolition of Buildings" (buildings and equipment, about $846,000) in Codington County after DR-4656, a severe storm declared June 29, 2022; 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 Florence serve on site until it moves back in.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Florence
South Dakota is in FEMA Region 8, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Codington County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in South Dakota are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Florence would travel I-90 and local routes, as it would for nearby Wallace and Codington County. 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 Florence
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Florence'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
Florence's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4718 (flooding, declared July 6, 2023). 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), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-90 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.
