Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Refrigerated Trailer?
Our refrigerated rental trailers are compact, towable units specifically designed for food service applications. They offer a convenient, walk-in solution for keeping your perishables cold, whether you're catering an event, handling overflow storage, or facing an emergency.
Do You Rent Large “Reefer” Trailers?
No—our rental units are not the large diesel-powered "reefer" trailers typically used for long-haul trucking or dock-height distribution.
Instead, our trailers are:
• Walk-in height and width (not dock-height)
• Door will not accommodate a pallet
• Typically hand-loaded
• Equipped with shelving on both sides for organized product storage
• Designed for short-term, on-site use
How Do Your Refrigerated Trailers Work?
Each trailer uses a closed-loop refrigeration system powered by shore power, similar to an RV or camping trailer. They run on clean, steady electricity provided by your facility.
• We supply extension cords
• You are responsible for a dedicated, single-point power connection
• We can adapt to certain outlet configurations as needed
Please note: These systems are too precise and sensitive for generator use.
