Kentucky Shower Trailer Rentals for Distillery and Rickhouse Construction Crews
Shower and restroom planning for bourbon-country construction, from rickhouses to bottling lines.
Key points
- The Kentucky Distillers' Association says 95% of the world's bourbon is made in Kentucky.
- Distillery sites are often rural, with crews far from a locker room.
- Construction sanitation follows 803 KAR 2:403, which adopts OSHA 1926.51.
The Kentucky Distillers' Association puts it plainly: 95% of the world's bourbon is made in Kentucky. Making it takes more than stills. Rickhouses (the tall, many-story warehouses where barrels age), bottling halls, visitor centers, and utility upgrades all bring construction crews onto farm roads around towns like Bardstown, Lawrenceburg, and Versailles.
What crews need
- Restrooms by headcount. 803 KAR 2:403 adopts OSHA's construction sanitation rule: at least one toilet for 20 or fewer workers, then 1 seat and 1 urinal per 40.
- Showers after dusty or hot work. Roofing, concrete, and insulation crews appreciate a shower trailer with private stalls before the drive home.
- Handwashing at food areas. If the job feeds crews on site, a Handwashing Sink Trailer keeps hands clean at the lunch tent.
Placing a trailer on a working campus
Keep units away from barrel traffic and fire lanes, and agree with the distillery's safety team on where trucks may drive. Tell us whether water and sewer hookups are nearby; otherwise we quote tanks and hauling.
