Refrigeration Rental Options in Jonesboro, AR
Jonesboro has about 82,400 residents (Census Bureau 2024 estimate) and the hospitals, schools, grocers, and food businesses that come with a regional hub, any of which can lose cold storage without warning. Typical customers in Jonesboro include food distributors, warehouses and distribution centers, and restaurants and caterers.
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.
For a Jonesboro site, plan a level area, a clear route for a tow vehicle, and 220V single-phase power (40 to 60 amps for our 20-foot units). If power is limited, a container with a generator set may be the answer. We confirm placement and power before delivery.

Cold Storage Planning in Jonesboro
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 22 federally declared major disasters that included Craighead County, Arkansas. The most recent are Severe Storms, Tornadoes, And Flooding (flood, declared May 21, 2025, disaster 4873); Severe Storms And Tornadoes (tornado, declared December 23, 2021, disaster 4633); Severe Storms, Tornadoes, And Straight-Line Winds (tornado, declared May 8, 2020, disaster 4544). 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 Jonesboro 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 Jonesboro 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
The Arkansas Division of Emergency Management leads emergency response in Arkansas. For a Jonesboro site we agree the delivery route, the access point, and the power connection with you in advance, separate from public emergency operations, and we do not claim a published staging route.
5. Local rental costs
Refrigerated containers and walk-in refrigeration trailers start from $995 per month, mobile kitchens start from $4,995 per month, and dishwashing trailers start from $4,995 per month. These are starting rates; the delivery distance to Jonesboro, the size, the temperature, and the rental length change the final quote. See the price list or request a quote.
