Planning a kitchen rental in Nashua, IA

Items marked RECORD come from public FEMA data; items marked SCENARIO are planning examples, not past jobs.

  1. 1

    Past emergencies in Nashua, IA

    Record FEMA lists 10 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering Chickasaw County, which includes Nashua. The most recent is severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and flooding (DR-4386), declared August 20, 2018. Events like that can cut power for days, which spoils walk-in inventory and closes hospital and school kitchens. An emergency refrigeration trailer holds product while a mobile kitchen trailer keeps meals going.

  2. 2

    Major construction

    Record FEMA Public Assistance funded “(PW# 69) CHBRC12 - Aggregate Loss #1” (roads and bridges, $214,381) after the severe storm(s) declared August 27, 2017 (DR-4334). Public rebuilding projects also bring crews who need meals. A mobile kitchen with a dish trailer can feed them on site.

  3. 3

    Kitchen renovation

    ScenarioA nursing home in Plainfield renovating its kitchen still serves three meals a day. It could rent a kitchen trailer for the build and add a dish trailer to keep using real plates.

  4. 4
