Refrigeration Rental Options in Wakefield, VA
Wakefield is a smaller community in Sussex County, where one cooler failure can leave a grocery, school cafeteria, or restaurant without cold storage and no nearby backup. Typical customers in Wakefield include nursing homes and care facilities, hotels and event venues, 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 Wakefield, 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 Wakefield
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 9 federally declared major disasters that included Sussex County, Virginia. The most recent are Covid-19 Pandemic (biological, declared April 2, 2020, disaster 4512); Hurricane Irene (hurricane, declared September 3, 2011, disaster 4024); Tropical Depression Ernesto, Severe Storms And Flooding (severe storm, declared September 22, 2006, disaster 1661). 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. Source: OpenFEMA Disaster Declarations Summaries, checked November 2, 2026.
2. Major construction
Sussex County covers about 490 square miles, and building sites spread across that area rarely have a finished kitchen or walk-in cooler on day one. A crew on a Wakefield job may need cold storage for lunches, medications, or deliveries before permanent power is in. This is an example of the need, not a statement that we serve a particular project.
3. Major renovation
Picture a care facility in Wakefield that replaces its kitchen. Residents still eat three meals a day, so a mobile kitchen with a walk-in cooler could carry the menu until the new kitchen is finished. This is a scenario, not a past job.
4. Emergency equipment access
If a storm or outage closes roads near Wakefield, check with the Virginia Department of Emergency Management and the emergency management office for Sussex 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 Wakefield 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.
