Refrigeration Rental Options in Richardson, TX
Richardson is one of Texas's larger communities, with about 118,000 residents (Census Bureau 2024 estimate), so its hospitals, distribution centers, restaurants, and event venues use more cold storage than any one building holds. Typical customers in Richardson include warehouses and distribution centers, restaurants and caterers, and grocery stores.
Choose by how long and how much. For a short emergency, a walk-in refrigeration trailer is usually the faster setup. For months of storage or a large inventory, a cold storage container in 20, 24, or 40 feet gives more room. Our 20-foot units are listed at 15°F for coolers and -5°F for freezers.
Before delivery to Richardson, 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 Richardson
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 15 federally declared major disasters that included Dallas County, Texas. The most recent are Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, And Flooding (flood, declared May 17, 2024, disaster 4781); Severe Winter Storms (severe ice storm, declared February 19, 2021, disaster 4586); Covid-19 Pandemic (biological, declared March 25, 2020, disaster 4485). 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 Texas tend to run on temporary power and shifting schedules, and Richardson 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 Richardson 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
Emergency response in Texas is coordinated by the Texas Division of Emergency Management, 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 Richardson, the setup, and your rental length to give a firm quote. See the price list or request a quote.
