What public records show for food service in Kenly
Past emergency
Kenly and DR-4393
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4393, hurricane florence, on September 14, 2018 for Johnston County, which includes Kenly, for an incident that began September 7, 2018. It is one of 8 major disaster declarations covering Johnston County since 2000. Hurricanes bring power loss, flooding, and blocked roads that can shut a commercial kitchen for days. For a school, care home, or shelter in Kenly, that means cooking outside the building in a self-contained kitchen trailer until the inspection is passed.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Kenly
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "(PW# 1709) 7-F2149-WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANT DAMAGE" (utilities, about $3.0 million) in Johnston County after DR-4285, a hurricane declared October 10, 2016; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Kenly, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
After the damage: buildings in Johnston County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "(PW# 1012) 7-E0907 - Facility Serv Building Damages" (buildings and equipment, about $101,000) in Johnston County after DR-4285, a hurricane declared October 10, 2016; FEMA lists the project as eligible. Rebuilding takes months, and meals cannot wait that long. A kitchen trailer and a dish trailer let a facility in Kenly serve on site until it moves back in.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Kenly
North Carolina is in FEMA Region 4, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Johnston County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. North Carolina borders Virginia, our lead market, so projects here are planned much like our Virginia work. Equipment for Kenly would travel I-40 and local routes, as it would for nearby Micro and Lucama. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: an elementary school cafeteria in Kenly
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Kenly'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
Suppose an elementary school cafeteria in Kenly loses power and takes on water in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4393 (hurricane florence, declared September 14, 2018). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 24ft Mobile Kitchen, and 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (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-40 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen trailer once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.4. Timeline
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.5. Estimated rental cost
24ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 12ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $6,890 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.
