How we plan getting a trailer to Merrimack
Every rental in Merrimack starts with the address, not a warehouse. Here is how a request for Merrimack, NH moves from call to cold storage:
- Call or send the form. Tell us the street address in Merrimack, 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 Merrimack include Everett Turnpike and US-3. 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.
- Merrimack sits about 12 miles west of Derry, New Hampshire's largest city on our list, so it is part of the same metro-area planning.
- 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 New Hampshire, calls like this often follow winter storm and flood. Operations that cannot wait for the grid to return can rent a refrigerated trailer as backup walk-in space and keep inventory at holding temperature.
For official emergency information in New Hampshire, see New Hampshire Homeland Security and Emergency Management (HSEM). We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.
- The address in Merrimack (and the Hillsborough County location if it is outside town limits).

What drives cold-storage demand around Merrimack
New Hampshire summers are warm, with typical highs from the mid-70s F in the north to the low 80s F in the south, and about 6 days a year at or above 90 F on average (about 9 per year in 2020 to 2024). Winters are cold and snowy, with typical lows above 15 F in the south and below 5 F in the far north, and southern snowfall averaging about 60 inches a year. The hottest stretch runs june to August, and the coldest december to February. Both extremes put stress on commercial refrigeration in Merrimack.
Merrimack's largest employers (2019) included Fidelity Investments (about 6,000), PC Connection (about 1,077), Merrimack Premium Outlets (about 900), BAE Systems and Anheuser-Busch (about 531). Large corporate campuses and outlet centers have substantial food-service and cafeteria operations.
The Anheuser-Busch brewery has operated in town since 1970 and has a Budweiser Clydesdale stable and tours, and it hosts the Great American Ribfest and Food Truck Festival. A brewery and a food-truck festival site mean beverage storage needs and event food service.
Merrimack requires a local mobile or temporary food service license submitted at least 7 days before an event. Event operators here plan around the town's application lead time.
Winter storm risk in New Hampshire (November to April): Most years bring several nor'easters with at least 5 inches of snow, plus coastal flooding and infrastructure damage. Storm-related outages can often leave restaurants and food retailers needing emergency cold storage or a temporary kitchen.
Flood risk in New Hampshire (Spring and late summer): The Mother's Day flood of May 2006 prompted a federal disaster declaration covering seven counties, and the state's wettest 10-year span on record was 2005 to 2014. Flooded commercial kitchens and cold rooms can create a need for temporary refrigeration and warewashing during repairs.
Hurricane Isaias in August 2020 produced winds over 50 mph that caused widespread power outages in New Hampshire. Summer storm outages can spoil refrigerated inventory quickly in warm weather.
Food service and business in Merrimack
The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a city like Merrimack are hospitals and care facilities, school districts, hotels, restaurants, grocers, food distributors, and event venues.
An Anheuser-Busch brewery has operated in Merrimack since 1970 and employed about 531 people in 2019. Beverage plants and distributors depend on temperature-controlled storage.
Londonderry is home to Stonyfield Farm's headquarters, a Coca-Cola bottling facility and farm markets such as Mack's Apples and Elwood Orchards. Dairy, beverage and orchard businesses all need cold storage.
Merrimack 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 New Hampshire: Laconia Motorcycle Week (June); New Hampshire Motor Speedway race weekends (Summer and fall). Large rallies create short-term demand for event kitchens, cold storage and dishwashing.
Equipment you can rent in Merrimack
Refrigeration is our focus, and Merrimack customers rent the same four units as the rest of New Hampshire:
Many Merrimack requests pair cold storage with a mobile kitchen rental or a dishwashing trailer rental, so a facility can cook, serve, and clean up during a repair or renovation.
20 ft Refrigerated Trailer
Starting from $1,895 / month
The workhorse. A 20 ft trailer comes as a 32°F cooler or as a low-temperature freezer configuration, so you can match what failed.
20 ft Refrigerated Container
Starting from $2,995 / month
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
The largest cold storage option. It takes pallets and bulk product for food distribution, disaster response, and large facilities.
Requirements for renting a refrigerated trailer in Merrimack
Renting a refrigerated trailer in Merrimack is simple, but a few items decide whether it runs smoothly on the first day.
A DHHS emergency sheet hosted by the town of Salem tells food establishments to note when an outage starts, stop cooking, and not reopen after a disaster until authorized; in 2017 the DHHS commissioner pointed to a four-hour power outage standard. These rules mean outages beyond about four hours can push operators toward emergency cold storage or relocation of food.
Under state rules (He-P 2300) a mobile food unit needs an annual license application to the DHHS Food Protection Section, and a new license, class change or ownership change triggers an inspection that the applicant arranges with the section within 30 days. Anyone running a temporary or mobile kitchen unit should confirm the unit's licensing and inspection before serving.
- 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 Merrimack 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 Merrimack Building and Health Division (Fire and Rescue Department).
- Paperwork: your quote lists the unit, the rental length, delivery, setup, servicing, and minimum terms. An inquiry does not reserve equipment.
