What public records show for food service in Henrico County
Past emergency
Severe Winter Storm And Snowstorm (2016)
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4262, severe winter storm and snowstorm, on March 7, 2016 for Henrico County, for an incident that began January 22, 2016. It is one of 6 major disaster declarations covering the county since 2000. Heavy snow closes roads and can collapse roofs or cut power to institutional kitchens. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road construction in Henrico County
VDOT's Six-Year Improvement Program lists "RTE 9999 (Three Chopt Road) Widen To 4 Lanes" on Three Chopt Road in Henrico County at an estimated $70.5 million. The project is advertised for construction bids, with work listed to begin in June 2026. Work zones like this can change how a truck reaches a site, so we check active VDOT work before planning a delivery. A long public project can also bring crews to the area, and a caterer or facility feeding them could add a mobile kitchen trailer for the duration.
Major renovation
Rebuilding local roads and bridges
VDOT's Six-Year Improvement Program lists "Rt 33 Over I-64 - Br Replacement - Fed Id 9745" on Nine Mile Road in Henrico County at an estimated $47.5 million. The project is scheduled, with construction listed to begin in August 2027. Reconstruction like this keeps the route open for heavy deliveries. Kitchen renovations follow the same pattern: when a school, hospital, or care-home kitchen in Henrico County is rebuilt, a temporary kitchen on site covers meal service until the work is done.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Henrico County
Statewide emergency operations are coordinated from the Virginia Emergency Operations Center (VEOC) at 7700 Midlothian Turnpike, North Chesterfield, VA 23235; Henrico County lies about 13 miles east of it in a straight line. Locally, Henrico County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Henrico County is in VDOT's Richmond District, and we plan routes around its active work zones, as we do for nearby Hopewell and Richmond. We confirm the route, gate access, and placement area with your team before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a nursing and rehabilitation center in Henrico County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Henrico County'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
Suppose a nursing and rehabilitation center in Henrico County loses power and road access under heavy snow in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4262 (severe winter storm and snowstorm, declared March 7, 2016). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
VDOT lists "RTE 9999 (Three Chopt Road) Widen To 4 Lanes" on Three Chopt Road as advertised, so the delivery plan would check that work zone and pick a truck route around it. 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
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 for a one-month emergency rental. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
