What public records show for food service in Union County
Past emergency
Union County and DR-4807
FEMA has made 11 major disaster declarations for Union County since 2000; the latest, DR-4807, severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, was declared on August 15, 2024 after an incident that began June 16, 2024, and it covered Union County. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Repair projects around Union County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Incomplete Utilities" (utilities, about $3.5 million) in Union County after DR-4807, a flood declared August 15, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Union County, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Union County
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Union County 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.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Union County
South Dakota is in FEMA Region 8, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Union 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 Union County would travel I-90 and local routes, as it would for nearby Elk Point and Alcester. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs
Kitchen trailer rental costs in Union County
Starting monthly rates on our current price list: mobile kitchen trailers $4,995 / month, dishwashing trailers $4,995 / month, and refrigerated trailers $1,895 / month.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a nursing and rehabilitation center in Union County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Union County'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 nursing and rehabilitation center in Union County floods at ground level in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4807 (severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared August 15, 2024). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Container (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-90 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
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
38ft Mobile Kitchen $7,995 + 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $2,995 = $15,985 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.
