Planning a kitchen rental in Hills, IA

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

  1. 1

    Past emergencies in Hills, IA

    Record FEMA lists 10 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering Johnson County, which includes Hills. The most recent is severe storms (DR-4557), declared August 17, 2020. 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

    ScenarioA job site outside Riverside with no restaurant nearby could feed crews from a mobile kitchen trailer, with shower-restroom trailers on the same delivery.

  3. 3

    Kitchen renovation

    Record FEMA Public Assistance also funded “East Campus” (buildings and equipment, $726,291) after DR-4557. When a public building is repaired, its kitchen is often part of the job. A temporary kitchen trailer and a dish trailer keep meals going through the renovation.

  4. 4

    Emergency equipment access

    During a declared emergency in Hills, 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

    What a rental costs in Hills, IA

    Three months in a standard kitchen trailer starts at $14,985 in equipment; add a dish trailer from $4,995 a month or cold storage from $1,895 a month. These starting rates apply in every location we serve. Delivery, setup, pickup, utilities, and permits are quoted for your address. See every unit's starting price.
