Planning a kitchen rental in Shively, KY
Items marked RECORD come from public FEMA data; items marked SCENARIO are planning examples, not past jobs.
1
Past emergencies in Shively, KY
Record FEMA lists 13 major disaster declarations since 2000 covering Jefferson County, which includes Shively. The most recent is severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, flooding, landslides, and mudslides (DR-4864), declared April 24, 2025. Storms and floods of that scale often damage kitchens below grade or knock out gas and power. A kitchen trailer rental parked near the dock can carry food service until the building is safe.
2
Major construction
Record FEMA Public Assistance funded “Pond Creek Flood Pump Station #1 and #2 - Pump Equipment Damage” (water control facilities, $500,000) after the severe storm(s) declared April 24, 2025 (DR-4864). Rebuilding work like that can close roads and cut utilities to nearby kitchens. A leased kitchen trailer on temporary service keeps a facility cooking through the shutoffs.
3
Kitchen renovation
Record FEMA Public Assistance also funded “Dereck Guthrie Water quality treatment plant pump station 1” (buildings and equipment, $437,022) after DR-4860. Repairs and remodels like that are when a rental kitchen earns its keep: meals keep going while the permanent space is rebuilt.
4
Emergency equipment access
During a declared emergency in Shively, Kentucky, Kentucky Emergency Management and local officials direct public relief logistics, staging, and road access. Our deliveries are separate private arrangements: we confirm the route, site entrance, and placement with you and follow any access limits officials publish.
5
What a rental costs in Shively, KY
Mobile kitchen trailers start from $4,995 a month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895. These starting rates apply in every location we serve. Delivery, setup, pickup, utilities, and permits are quoted for your address. See every unit's starting price.
