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.

Cold Storage Planning in Franklin
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 14 federally declared major disasters that included Simpson County, Kentucky. The most recent are Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared April 24, 2025, disaster 4864); Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared February 24, 2025, disaster 4860); Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared July 23, 2024, disaster 4804).

2. Major construction
Large projects in Kentucky tend to run on temporary power and shifting schedules, and Franklin is no exception. Rented refrigeration can follow the schedule when a permanent cooler cannot. This is an example of the need, not a statement that we serve a particular project.
3. Major renovation
Picture a warehouse in Franklin that takes on a grocery contract before its cold room is ready. Leased refrigerated containers could cover the first months. This is a scenario, not a past job.
4. Emergency equipment access
If a storm or outage closes roads near Franklin, check with Kentucky Emergency Management and the emergency management office for Simpson County for public guidance. Our trucks follow a route we plan with you in advance, and we do not claim an official staging route to any site.
5. Local rental costs
Pricing for Franklin starts from $995 per month for refrigerated containers and walk-in refrigeration trailers, and from $4,995 per month for mobile kitchens and dishwashing trailers. The final figure depends on the delivery distance, the size and temperature you need, and how long you rent. See the price list or request a quote.
