T.1Delivery
Getting a trailer to Paullina
Paullina is more than 140 straight-line miles from Des Moines, Iowa's largest city, so a closed kitchen here rarely has a backup nearby. We plan the route, the arrival window, and any oversize-load timing before the trailer leaves, and book early when a renovation date is set.
The same plan covers the rest of O'Brien County, including unincorporated areas near Paullina.

Planning a kitchen rental in Paullina, IA
Items marked RECORD come from public FEMA data; items marked SCENARIO are planning examples, not past jobs.
1
Past emergencies in Paullina, IA
Record FEMA lists 8 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering O'Brien County, which includes Paullina. The most recent is severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds, and tornadoes (DR-4796), declared June 24, 2024. 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
Major construction
Record FEMA Public Assistance funded “City of Primghar -Sewer/Transformer Base” (utilities, $833,389) after the flood declared June 24, 2024 (DR-4796). Public rebuilding projects also bring crews who need meals. A mobile kitchen with a dish trailer can feed them on site.
3
Kitchen renovation

T.6Why us
