In Tennessee, calls like this often follow flood and winter storm. 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 Tennessee, see Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA). We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.

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

Tennessee has the eighth-most farms in the U.S.; beef cattle and broilers lead livestock, and soybeans, corn, cotton and tomatoes are major crops. Harvest and livestock processing peaks can create short-term cold storage needs at packers and growers.

Food and drink production is Tennessee's second-largest manufacturing sector, with brands such as Bush's Beans, Jack Daniel's, Little Debbie and Mountain Dew made in the state. Food manufacturers and co-packers often need temporary refrigerated capacity during plant outages, expansions or seasonal peaks.

Fayetteville 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 Tennessee: Memphis in May World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and Beale Street Music Festival (May); Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival (June). Large food contests and festivals can create demand for temporary cold storage and warewashing.

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

Under the Tennessee Food Safety Act (Tenn. Code 68-14-718), plans for a newly built or extensively remodeled food service establishment must be submitted for review by the Tennessee Department of Health. A temporary kitchen that is meant to operate as a food establishment may need plan review before a permit is issued.

The Tennessee Department of Health says permanent food establishments must submit plans and specifications before construction or remodeling and be inspected before a permit is issued. Anyone placing a mobile kitchen or dishwashing trailer at a fixed site should check plan review needs with the health department.

• 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 Fayetteville 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 Tennessee Department of Health, Environmental Health (Food Service 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 Fayetteville, setup, servicing, and minimum terms are confirmed in your quote.
