Refrigeration Rental Options in Smithers, WV
Smithers is a smaller community in Fayette County, where one cooler failure can leave a grocery, school cafeteria, or restaurant without cold storage and no nearby backup. Typical customers in Smithers include hotels and event venues, restaurants and caterers, and grocery stores.
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 Smithers 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 Smithers
1. Past emergencies and recovery needs
FEMA lists 19 federally declared major disasters that included Fayette County, West Virginia. The most recent are Severe Storms And Flooding (severe storm, declared October 7, 2026, disaster 4953); Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared May 22, 2024, disaster 4783); Severe Storms, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (severe storm, declared November 28, 2022, disaster 4679). 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 West Virginia tend to run on temporary power and shifting schedules, and Smithers 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 hotel in Smithers that renovates its banquet kitchen before a busy season. A mobile kitchen and a refrigerated container could keep breakfast and events running through the work. This is a scenario, not a past job.
4. Emergency equipment access
For a Smithers emergency, the West Virginia Emergency Management Division coordinates at the state level and the emergency management office for Fayette County at the local level. Our deliveries are our own: we plan the route, the gate, and the power with you, and we do not claim any official staging route.
5. Local rental costs
A rental here begins at $995 per month for a refrigerated container or walk-in trailer. Mobile kitchens and dishwashing trailers begin at $4,995 per month. Distance to Smithers, power, temperature, and term decide the quote we confirm before anything ships. See the price list or request a quote.
