Refrigeration Rental Options in Selma, AL
Selma is a community of about 16,300 residents (Census Bureau 2024 estimate) in Dallas County, where one cooler failure can leave a grocery, school cafeteria, or restaurant without cold storage. Typical customers in Selma include food distributors, food processors, and grocery stores.
Refrigerated container rentals fit long projects that need a lot of cold space for weeks or months, and come in 20, 24, and 40 foot lengths. Refrigeration trailers roll in, level out, and plug in as walk-in coolers or freezers. Our 20-foot units are listed at 15°F for coolers and -5°F for freezers; those are the equipment’s listed points, not a promise for every load or weather condition.
Before delivery to Selma, tell us about gates, low wires, tight turns, and how far the unit sits from power. Our 20-foot units are listed at 220V single phase, 40 to 60 amps, and a container with a generator set can cover sites without enough power.

Cold Storage Planning in Selma
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 17 federally declared major disasters that included Dallas County, Alabama. The most recent are Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, And Tornadoes (severe storm, declared January 15, 2023, disaster 4684); Hurricane Zeta (hurricane, declared December 10, 2020, disaster 4573); Severe Storms And Flooding (severe storm, declared May 21, 2020, disaster 4546). When an event like that interrupts power or closes a building, a refrigerated trailer or container can protect stored food and supplies while repairs are made.

2. Major construction
New plants, warehouses, schools, and road projects in and around Selma can put kitchens, break rooms, and food service on temporary power and temporary schedules. This is an example of the need, not a statement that we serve a particular project. Tell us about yours and we plan cold storage around it.
3. Major renovation
Picture a food distributor in Selma that retrofits a dock. Refrigerated containers could hold inbound loads so deliveries are not turned away. This is a scenario, not a past job.
4. Emergency equipment access
Emergency response in Alabama is coordinated by the Alabama Emergency Management Agency, working with the emergency management office for Dallas County. Public emergency operations are separate from our own delivery arrangements. We plan the truck route and site access with you, and we do not claim a published staging route for any site.
5. Local rental costs
Starting prices: $995 per month for refrigerated containers and walk-in trailers, $4,995 per month for mobile kitchens, and $4,995 per month for dishwashing trailers. We add the delivery distance to Selma, the setup, and your rental length to give a firm quote. See the price list or request a quote.
