How we plan getting a trailer to Winona
Every rental in Winona starts with the address, not a warehouse. Here is how a request for Winona, MS moves from call to cold storage:
- Call or send the form. Tell us the street address in Winona, what failed or what you are planning, and the temperature you need. Emergencies go to (888) 385-5513.
- We match the unit. A 12 ft refrigerated trailer suits tight lots and small kitchens, a 20 ft trailer holds more, and a refrigerated container is for bulk storage over longer jobs.
- Roads that serve Winona include I-55 and US-51. We confirm which approach suits a trailer, how the truck turns onto your site, and whether anything on the last few blocks is posted or restricted.
- Winona is roughly 86 straight-line miles north of Jackson, Mississippi's largest city on our list. A longer trip means we plan routes, weather, and delivery timing with more care, and we confirm both in your quote.
- We confirm power and placement. The 20 ft trailers list 220V, single phase, 40 to 60 amps with a NEMA plug, so have an electrician confirm your service. Pick a firm, level spot with room for the door to open and for the truck to reach it.
- Delivery and setup. On site, setup takes about 1 hour for a refrigeration unit, plus 4 to 6 hours if a ramp is needed or 5 to 15 minutes for stairs. Delivery timing, servicing, and minimum terms are written into your quote, and an inquiry does not reserve equipment.

In Mississippi, calls like this often follow hurricane and tornado. For this kind of event, a refrigerated container rental holds bulk product, and a 12 ft trailer covers a small kitchen's cooler and freezer.

- The address in Winona (and the Montgomery County location if it is outside town limits).

- How much product is at risk, and whether it must stay at 32°F (cooler) or near -5°F (freezer).

What drives cold-storage demand around Winona
Mississippi has a humid subtropical climate with long, hot, humid summers; July highs average about 91F in Jackson and Gulfport and 93F in Meridian. Winters are short and mild, with January lows near 35F in Jackson, 43F in Gulfport and 30F in Tupelo, and little snow. Annual rainfall runs from about 50 inches in the north to about 61 inches on the coast. The hottest stretch runs june to September, and the coldest december to February. Both extremes put stress on commercial refrigeration in Winona.
Winona is the Montgomery County seat; Pilot Travel Centers bought the High Point truck and travel center there in 2005, and Biewer Lumber announced a $130 million sawmill in 2021. Truck stop and mill operations create food service and cold storage needs.
An EF3 tornado struck the south side of Winona on March 24, 2023, causing three deaths. Tornado damage can disrupt power and food businesses.
Hurricane risk in Mississippi (Late summer and fall (August to October)): Hurricane Camille (1969) and Hurricane Katrina (2005) were the most devastating storms; Katrina's storm surge reached 27.8 ft at Pass Christian and flooded areas 6 to 12 miles inland. Coastal storms can destroy or shut down kitchens and refrigeration and often leave communities without power for weeks.
Tornado risk in Mississippi (Winter and spring in the north, later in the year in the south): Mississippi averages about 27 tornadoes a year. An EF4 tornado struck Rolling Fork on March 24, 2023, killing 17 people. Tornado damage to power lines and buildings can interrupt refrigeration and food service in small towns for days.
About 97 percent of the Jackson metro area lost power during Katrina, even though the city is far inland. Inland cities can lose refrigeration for extended periods after Gulf hurricanes.
Food service and business in Winona
The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a community like Winona are grocers, school and care-home kitchens, restaurants, lodges and motels, farm and ranch operations, and the groups that run fairs, rodeos, and festivals.
Mississippi produces more than half of the country's farm-raised catfish. Aquaculture harvesting and processing rely on chilled handling and storage.
Forest, Mississippi has poultry processors including Koch Foods, Tyson Foods and Forest Packing Company. Poultry processing creates large, steady cold storage needs and sees spikes when plants have outages.
Winona 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: Biloxi Blessing of the Fleet and Shrimp Festival (Before shrimp season, annually); Gulfport events: World's Largest Fishing Rodeo, Cruisin' the Coast and Smokin' the Sound. Seafood festivals can call for temporary kitchens and cold storage.

A stationary cold storage box for bulk product, built for longer projects, seasonal peaks, and renovations.
40 ft Refrigerated Container
Starting from $3,995 / month

MEMA lists business-oriented resources, including an SBA guide on preparing a business for disasters, plus hazard guidance on hurricanes, extreme heat, floods, tornadoes and winter weather. Food businesses can use state emergency planning resources when preparing for outages that affect refrigeration.
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.
