What public records show for food service in Port Aransas
Past emergency
Port Aransas and DR-4798
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4798, hurricane beryl, on July 9, 2024 for Nueces County, which includes Port Aransas, for an incident that began July 5, 2024. It is one of 13 major disaster declarations covering Nueces County since 2000. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. For a school, care home, or shelter in Port Aransas, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Port Aransas
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Gas System" (utilities, about $35.9 million) in Nueces County after DR-4332, a hurricane declared August 25, 2017; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Port Aransas, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A facility in Port Aransas that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Public building repairs near Port Aransas
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Public Safety Building" (buildings and equipment, about $6.3 million) in Nueces County after DR-4332, a hurricane declared August 25, 2017; 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 Port Aransas can keep serving from a kitchen trailer in the parking lot.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Port Aransas
Texas is in FEMA Region 6, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Nueces 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 Port Aransas would travel I-10 and local routes, as it would for nearby Aransas Pass and Corpus Christi. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Port Aransas
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Port Aransas'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
Picture the next event on the scale of FEMA's DR-4798 (hurricane beryl, declared July 9, 2024): a hospital kitchen in Port Aransas loses power and takes on water, and the people it feeds still need their meals.2. Trailer setup
A 38ft Mobile Kitchen, 38ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft 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-10 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.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.
