In Massachusetts, calls like this often follow flood and tornado. When an outage runs long, a 20 ft refrigerated trailer rental gives a kitchen, grocer, or care facility cold space to move product into while the building recovers.

For official emergency information in Massachusetts, see Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA). We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.

• The address in Cohasset (and the Norfolk County location if it is outside town limits).
• What failed: a walk-in cooler, a freezer, a compressor, or the power itself.
• How much product is at risk, and whether it must stay at 32°F (cooler) or near -5°F (freezer).
• The power available at the site and whether a truck can reach the spot.
• Keep doors closed until the unit arrives so the product holds its temperature as long as possible.

The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a city like Cohasset are supermarkets, school districts, clinics and care facilities, hotels and lodges, caterers, and local processors and growers.

Chatham's summer population roughly triples to about 20,000, and its industries are tourism, hospitality and commercial fishing, with a fish pier where dayboats unload fresh fish and lobster. Cape Cod's seasonal swing creates peaks in restaurant and seafood cold-storage demand.

Plymouth's economy centers on tourism, healthcare and research, and Plymouth Harbor remains an active port with working cranberry bogs nearby. A major tourist and harbor town concentrates food service and seafood handling.

Cohasset customers use refrigeration trailers in three common ways: as emergency cover for a failed walk-in, as extra capacity during a peak (a harvest, a festival, a holiday week), and as temporary cold storage during a renovation. See rental prices for what each unit costs, or how to plan your site before delivery.

Demand also rises around events in Massachusetts: Portuguese Feast (Oak Bluffs) (Mid-July); Boston Marathon (April (Patriots' Day)). Community feasts need large-scale cooking, cold storage and dishwashing.

Renting a refrigerated trailer in Cohasset is simple, but a few items decide whether it runs smoothly on the first day.

The Retail Food Code (105 CMR 590) sets sanitation standards for food establishments, adopts parts of the 2013 FDA Food Code, and is enforced by local boards of health. A temporary kitchen is typically approved by the local board of health in the town where it operates.

A mobile food operation may not sell or serve food until it is approved and holds a valid permit from the board of health, with the permit term set locally. Mobile kitchens used in different towns can face different local permit requirements.

• Customer type: commercial or industrial only (restaurants, grocers, healthcare, schools, hospitality, distributors, government). We do not rent to residential customers.
• Power: 220V, single phase, 40 to 60 amps for the 20 ft trailers, with a NEMA plug. Ask your electrician to confirm the circuit at your Cohasset site before delivery.
• Placement: a firm, level surface with room for the trailer, its door swing, and the delivery truck. Soft ground, steep slopes, and overhead lines are the usual problems.
• Access: send the gate or door width, any low clearances, and the best approach into the property.
• Permission: if you rent the property, get the owner or manager's approval to place a trailer. For food-safety questions, contact Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Food Protection Program.
• Paperwork: your quote lists the unit, the rental length, delivery, setup, servicing, and minimum terms. An inquiry does not reserve equipment.

Rates are the same nationwide. Rentals start from $1,895 / month for a 12 ft trailer, and the price sheet prints a separate rate for 1-6 days, 8-14 days, 15 days to 1 month, and more than 3 months. See every rate. Delivery to Cohasset, setup, servicing, and minimum terms are confirmed in your quote.
