Past emergency
FEMA's 2025 declaration for McDowell County
FEMA has made 15 major disaster declarations for McDowell County since 2000; the latest, DR-4861, severe storm, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, was declared on February 26, 2025 after an incident that began February 15, 2025, and it covered Gary. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Gary stays closed.
Major construction
Repair projects around Gary
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Water Utilities (Work to be Completed)" (utilities, about $1.6 million) in McDowell County after DR-4861, a severe storm declared February 26, 2025; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Gary, 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 McDowell County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "A&E True Light Church of God in Jesus Name" (buildings and equipment, about $935,000) in McDowell County after DR-4861, a severe storm declared February 26, 2025; 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 Gary until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Gary
West Virginia is in FEMA Region 3, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, McDowell County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. West Virginia borders Virginia, our lead market, so projects here are planned much like our Virginia work. Equipment for Gary would travel I-64 and local routes, as it would for nearby Kimball and Welch. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Gary
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Gary'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
Gary's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4861 (severe storm, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared February 26, 2025). If a repeat left a hospital kitchen there unable to cook, the facility would need a working kitchen outside the building within days.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-64 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
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
28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 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.
