Refrigeration Trailer Rental
Cold storage on wheels — 12-ft and 16-ft refrigeration trailers delivered to your site.
When you run out of cold storage, a refrigeration trailer rental keeps your food safe, your service running, and your event on schedule. California Mobile Kitchens (CMK) delivers self-contained refrigeration and freezer trailers to your site in California and nationwide, sets them up, and supports you for the length of the rental.
Two sizes, straightforward monthly rates
- 12-foot refrigeration trailer — $1,599 per month. A compact footprint that fits tight sites, with 77 square feet of interior cold storage.
- 16-foot refrigeration trailer — $1,799 per month. More room for larger inventories, with 105 square feet of interior cold storage.
Both trailers are built to surpass the standards set by health departments and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, with a clean, professional presentation that works in front of guests as well as behind the scenes. See the full range on our refrigeration trailers page.
When to rent a refrigeration trailer
- Events and festivals — keep beverages, ingredients, and prepared food cold for crowds without overloading your walk-in.
- Restaurants — add cold storage during a remodel, after a walk-in failure, or for a seasonal rush.
- Emergencies — restore cold storage fast after an outage, equipment breakdown, fire, or flood.
- Kitchen renovations — hold perishables safely while your permanent kitchen is out of service.
- Catering and film production — stage ingredients on location, close to where the food is served.
Pair cold storage with a working kitchen
Cold storage often goes hand in hand with a temporary kitchen. If your kitchen is down, combine a refrigeration trailer with a temporary kitchen rental — a 20-foot kitchen trailer at $6,000 per month or a 32-foot kitchen trailer at $8,000 per month — so you can cook and store on the same site. For extra prep space, add a prep kitchen trailer, and for washing capacity, a dishwashing trailer.
