What public records show for food service in Rice
Past emergency
FEMA's 2024 declaration for Navarro County
The most recent federal disaster on record for Navarro County, which includes Rice is DR-4781, severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and flooding, declared May 17, 2024. Navarro County has had 11 major disaster declarations 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 Rice, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Public works repair in Navarro County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Precinct 1 Completed roads" (roads and bridges, about $430,000) in Navarro 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 Rice, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A facility in Rice that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Rice
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Rice 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 Rice
Texas is in FEMA Region 6, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Navarro 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 Rice would travel I-10 and local routes, as it would for nearby Alma and Emhouse. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.
Local rental costs
Kitchen trailer rental costs in Rice
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. Delivery to Rice, setup, and pickup are quoted for your site, including the distance from Virginia. See the full price reference.
Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hotel and conference center kitchen in Rice
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Rice'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-4781 (severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and flooding, declared May 17, 2024): a hotel and conference center kitchen in Rice floods at ground level, and the people it feeds still need their meals.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
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.
