What public records show for food service in Franklin
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm (2026)
FEMA has made 6 major disaster declarations for Williamson County since 2000; the latest, DR-4898, severe winter storm, was declared on February 6, 2026 after an incident that began January 22, 2026, and it covered Franklin. Winter storms cut power and close roads, and frozen pipes can flood a kitchen. For a school, care home, or shelter in Franklin, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Franklin
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "County Wide Roads" (roads and bridges, about $323,000) in Williamson County after DR-4601, a severe storm declared May 8, 2021; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Franklin, 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
Rebuilding public buildings in Williamson County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Multiple Building Damage" (buildings and equipment, about $233,000) in Williamson County after DR-4898, a winter storm declared February 6, 2026; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When a public building is repaired after a disaster, its kitchen can be out of service for months. A temporary kitchen on site covers meal service at a school, shelter, or government building in Franklin until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Franklin
Tennessee is in FEMA Region 4, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Williamson County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Tennessee borders Virginia, our lead market, so projects here are planned much like our Virginia work. Equipment for Franklin would travel I-40 and local routes, as it would for nearby Williamson County and Brentwood. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a public high school cafeteria in Franklin
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Franklin'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
A public high school cafeteria in Franklin plans 3 months of work gutting the kitchen down to the slab and rebuilding it. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (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-40 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
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 3 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.5. Estimated rental cost
40ft Bulk Kitchen $10,995 + 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer $6,995 + 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $3,995 = $21,985 per month on our starting price list, or about $65,955 for 3 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
