What public records show for food service in Hardin County
Past emergency
FEMA's 2026 declaration for Hardin County
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4937, severe storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, on September 1, 2026 for Hardin County, for an incident that began June 26, 2026. It is one of 13 major disaster declarations covering Hardin County 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 Hardin County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "Roads Project" (roads and bridges, about $653,000) in Hardin County after DR-4864, a severe storm declared April 24, 2025; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Projects of this size change how a tractor-trailer reaches sites in and around Hardin County, so the delivery plan starts with the current road conditions. A crew camp on a long repair job can use a mobile kitchen trailer for its meals.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Hardin County
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Hardin County can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Hardin County
Kentucky is in FEMA Region 4, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Hardin 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 Hardin County would travel I-64 and local routes, as it would for nearby Elizabethtown and Vine Grove. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a senior nutrition program's production kitchen in Hardin County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Hardin 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
A 2-month project at a senior nutrition program's production kitchen in Hardin County, regrading the floor drains and replacing the dish room, would leave the building without a usable kitchen from the first day of demolition.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. Plan on roughly 5 hours from parking to cooking for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
Lock in dates when the renovation contract is signed. The trailers arrive just before demolition and stay 2 months, through final inspection of the new kitchen.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, or about $43,970 for 2 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
