Refrigeration Rental Options in Ludlow, KY
Ludlow is a smaller community in Kenton County, where one cooler failure can leave a grocery, school cafeteria, or restaurant without cold storage and no nearby backup. Typical customers in Ludlow include restaurants and caterers, grocery stores, and hospitals.
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 Ludlow, 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 Ludlow
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 9 federally declared major disasters that included Kenton County, Kentucky. The most recent are Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared April 24, 2025, disaster 4864); Covid-19 Pandemic (biological, declared March 28, 2020, disaster 4497); Severe Storms, Tornadoes, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (flood, declared April 26, 2018, disaster 4361). 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
Large projects in Kentucky tend to run on temporary power and shifting schedules, and Ludlow 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 restaurant in Ludlow that closes its kitchen for a rebuild. A mobile kitchen, a dishwashing trailer, and a refrigerated container at the back door could keep the doors open while the permanent kitchen is gutted and rebuilt. This is a scenario, not a past job.
4. Emergency equipment access
Emergency response in Kentucky is coordinated by Kentucky Emergency Management, working with the emergency management office for Kenton 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 Ludlow, the setup, and your rental length to give a firm quote. See the price list or request a quote.
