What public records show for food service in Bardstown
Past emergency
Bardstown and DR-4864
The most recent federal disaster on record for Nelson County, which includes Bardstown is DR-4864, severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared April 24, 2025. Nelson County has had 11 major disaster declarations since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Bardstown
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Stillwell Road and Tom Greer Road" (roads and bridges, about $911,000) in Nelson County after DR-4864, a severe storm declared April 24, 2025; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Bardstown, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. A facility in Bardstown that loses its utilities during the work could rent a self-contained kitchen trailer for those weeks.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Bardstown
A kitchen renovation in Bardstown 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 Bardstown
Kentucky is in FEMA Region 4, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Nelson County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Kentucky borders Virginia, our lead market, so projects here are planned much like our Virginia work. Equipment for Bardstown would travel I-64 and local routes, as it would for nearby Nelson County and Fairfield. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Bardstown
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Bardstown'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
Bardstown's most recent federal disaster was FEMA's DR-4864 (severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, declared April 24, 2025). If a repeat left a hospital 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), parked near the loading dock, where staff can move food between the trailers and the serving line.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-64 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
Day 1: call the 24/7 line and send photos of the placement area. Next: delivery and setup once placement is confirmed. Then: cooking from the trailer while the kitchen is repaired, extended by the week if repairs run long.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.
