What public records show for food service in Mountain City
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, And Flooding (2024)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4781, severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and flooding, on May 17, 2024 for Hays County, which includes Mountain City, for an incident that began April 26, 2024. It is one of 10 major disaster declarations covering Hays County since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. For a school, care home, or shelter in Mountain City, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Mountain City
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Citywide Utilities Damages FA and MOU" (utilities, about $211,000) in Hays County after DR-4781, a severe storm declared May 17, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Mountain City, 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
Rebuilding public buildings in Hays County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Cypress Apts., Bldg., 1063-1064" (buildings and equipment, about $1.0 million) in Hays County after DR-4781, a severe storm declared May 17, 2024; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Repairs like this often include the building's kitchen or the power that feeds it. A school or senior center in Mountain City can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Mountain City
Texas is in FEMA Region 6, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Hays County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Texas are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Mountain City would travel I-10 and local routes, as it would for nearby Kyle and Buda. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hotel and conference center kitchen in Mountain City
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Mountain City'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
Mountain City's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4781 (severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and flooding, declared May 17, 2024). If a repeat left a hotel and conference center kitchen 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), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-10 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
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.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.
