Planning a kitchen rental in Van Wert, IA

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

  1. 1

    Past emergencies in Van Wert, IA

    Record FEMA lists 8 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering Decatur County, which includes Van Wert. The most recent is severe storms and flooding (DR-4421), declared March 23, 2019. After a declared disaster, repair crews are booked for weeks. Renting a temporary kitchen and cold storage early keeps a facility serving while it waits its turn.

  2. 2

    Major construction

    Record FEMA Public Assistance funded “Decatur County Secondary Roads_ Additional damages” (roads and bridges, $248,680) after the severe storm(s) declared March 23, 2019 (DR-4421). 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

    ScenarioSchools near Decatur often remodel cafeterias over the summer. A leased mobile kitchen would keep summer meal programs running.

  4. 4

    During a declared emergency in Van Wert, Iowa, Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management and local officials direct public relief logistics, staging, and road access. Our deliveries are separate private arrangements: we confirm the route, site entrance, and placement with you and follow any access limits officials publish.

  5. 5
