What public records show for food service in Shelby County
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Flooding, And Tornadoes (2008)
The most recent federal disaster on record for Shelby County is DR-1766, severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes, declared June 8, 2008. Shelby County has had 6 major disaster declarations since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Shelby County stays closed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Shelby County
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Shelby County since 2016. When construction near a hospital, school, or care home in Shelby County cuts utilities or closes a kitchen in phases, a facility could lease a mobile kitchen trailer and a dishwashing trailer for the length of the work.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Shelby County
A kitchen renovation in Shelby County usually means new hoods, walk-ins, or floors, and weeks without cooking. A temporary kitchen trailer, booked early, covers that gap.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Shelby County
Indiana is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Shelby County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Indiana are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Shelby County would travel I-65 and local routes, as it would for nearby Shelbyville and Fairland. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: the county school division's central kitchen in Shelby County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Shelby 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
Shelby County's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-1766 (severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes, declared June 8, 2008). If a repeat left the county school division's central kitchen there unable to cook, the facility would need a working kitchen outside the building within days.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), set on a level pad close to the facility's power and water connections.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-65 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. On arrival, the refrigerated unit is cold-ready in about an hour, and the kitchen and dish trailers take about 5 hours to connect and start up.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.
