12 ft Refrigerated Trailer Rental
The 12 ft refrigerated trailer is emergency refrigeration for the day a walk-in cooler or freezer breaks down, and it pairs with our mobile kitchen trailers when the whole kitchen is offline. Rent it for a sudden failure or a planned renovation, short-term by the week or on a long-term monthly lease. Hospitals, schools, restaurants, hotels, and correctional facilities rent it. It suits a failed walk-in cooler at a restaurant, overflow during a kitchen move, short-term product holding. We coordinate delivery, placement, and setup with your team, and our line is answered 24/7. Ask us to check availability and send a quote for your site.

The inventory's 12 ft records describe themselves as 20 ft units, so their figures aren't published.
Confirm the actual unit and configuration in your quote. Equipment listed for a model doesn't guarantee a specific unit is available.

Across the country
When kitchens go offline: five situations we plan for
These are the situations that usually lead to a call. Each one is a scenario to plan around, not a description of a specific customer.
1. After a storm, flood, or outage
Water damage from a burst line can close a commercial kitchen without warning. A facility in Marfa could keep serving from a temporary kitchen trailer while the floor and walls are opened up.
2. Major construction
Utility upgrades in an older building can cut gas or power to the kitchen for days at a time. A facility in Helen facing scheduled shutoffs could run meals from a leased kitchen trailer wired to temporary service.
3. Kitchen renovation
A nursing home renovating its kitchen still serves three meals a day. In Detroit Lakes, a facility like that could rent a kitchen trailer for the build and add a dish trailer to keep using reusable plates.
4. Emergency equipment access
In a declared disaster, public emergency logistics run through state and county emergency management agencies and their staging areas. Our deliveries are arranged separately with you: we agree the route, the gate, and the placement for your site before the truck leaves.
5. What a rental costs
In every state, mobile kitchen trailers start from $4,995 a month, dishwashing trailers from $4,995, and refrigeration from $1,895, with weekly terms on request. These starting rates apply in every location we serve. Delivery, setup, pickup, utilities, and permits are quoted for your address. Compare every unit's price or build an estimate in the rental calculator.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How long does setup take?
Overall setup is about 5 hours for kitchen and dishwashing trailers and about 1 hour for other units. Stairs take 5 to 15 minutes to place; a ramp, when needed, takes 4 to 6 hours.
What type of dishwashing trailer do I need?
Match it to volume. A 22 to 26 ft low-temperature push-through trailer handles moderate service; 30 and 38 ft conveyor trailers handle hospital, campus, and correctional volume. Note that the 30 ft conveyor trailer needs three-phase power.
Do temporary kitchen trailers need permits?
Often, yes, but it varies. Health, building, fire, and temporary-use approvals depend on your city or county, your facility, and how the kitchen will be used. Check with your local authorities early; we can share equipment details they ask for.
Does an inquiry reserve equipment?
No. An inquiry starts the conversation. A person reviews your request, confirms availability for your dates and location, and sends a quote. Equipment is reserved once you accept the quote.
What utilities does a kitchen trailer need?
Electrical service, potable water, and a wastewater plan. Our kitchen trailers list 220V single-phase service at 200 to 220 amps; each trailer's page shows its own requirement. Wastewater can go to a sewer connection or to holding and pump-out, depending on the site.
