In Oregon, calls like this often follow ice storm and heat wave. 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.

For official emergency information in Oregon, see Oregon Department of Emergency Management. We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.

• The address in Sutherlin (and the Douglas 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 Sutherlin are supermarkets, school districts, clinics and care facilities, hotels and lodges, caterers, and local processors and growers.

Astoria and Newport have significant bottom and mid-water trawl activity for groundfish, the second most valuable commercial fishery after crab. Fish processors and docks depend on ice and cold storage, and temporary refrigerated units can support surge landings.

Tillamook County has a dairy economy centered on the Tillamook County Creamery Association, which makes cheese, ice cream and yogurt. Dairy production and visitor tourism both rely on cold chain, and flood or outage events can create a need for emergency refrigeration.

Sutherlin 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 Oregon: Hood River Valley Blossom Time and Harvest Fest (April and October); Oregon State Fair (Late August through Labor Day). Harvest and festival crowds in an orchard region can need temporary cold storage and food service.

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

The Oregon Department of Agriculture regulates production, processing and distribution of food products (such as bakeries and home kitchens), while restaurants and mobile units are licensed through local public health authorities under OHA rules. Which agency licenses a given operation depends on its type, so check before placing temporary equipment.

Oregon Health Authority's mobile food unit page says a mobile unit license application goes to the local public health authority for the area where the unit will operate. A mobile kitchen or similar unit generally needs local licensing before it can serve the public.

• 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 Sutherlin 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 Douglas County Public Health (local public health authority).
• 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 Sutherlin, setup, servicing, and minimum terms are confirmed in your quote.
