The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a city like Jackson are health systems, school districts and campuses, hotel and banquet kitchens, grocery chains, cold-storage and distribution operators, and large events.

The Port of Gulfport is described as one of the busiest ports in the Gulf of Mexico. Port traffic supports cold chain and overflow warehousing demand.

Mississippi produces more than half of the country's farm-raised catfish. Aquaculture harvesting and processing rely on chilled handling and storage.

Jackson 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 Mississippi: Neshoba County Fair (Last week of July); Mississippi State Fair (October). A multi-day fair with many campers and vendors can use temporary kitchens, cold storage and dishwashing.

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

The FDA Food Code is a model that state and local regulators use as a template for their own rules covering restaurants, grocery stores and institutions. Temporary refrigeration and kitchens used in Mississippi will typically be judged against state rules derived from this model.

The Mississippi State Department of Health is the primary state health agency, headquartered in Jackson; businesses should confirm current food permit, temporary event and mobile unit requirements with it directly. Anyone setting up a temporary kitchen or mobile food unit in Mississippi should check with the state health department and the local county office first.

• 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 Jackson 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 Mississippi State Department of Health.
• 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 Jackson, setup, servicing, and minimum terms are confirmed in your quote.
