How we plan getting a trailer to La Follette
Every rental in La Follette starts with the address, not a warehouse. Here is how a request for La Follette, TN moves from call to cold storage:
- Call or send the form. Tell us the street address in La Follette, 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 La Follette include US-25W and I-75. 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.
- La Follette is roughly 339 straight-line miles east of Memphis, Tennessee'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.

What drives cold-storage demand around La Follette

Winters are cool, with January lows from under 25 F in the far northeast to over 30 F in the southwest, and occasional Arctic outbreaks. The hottest stretch runs june to August, and the coldest december to February. Both extremes put stress on commercial refrigeration in La Follette.

Tornado risk in Tennessee (Mostly spring (large outbreaks recorded in March and April)): Tennessee averages about 30 tornadoes a year. April 2011 brought a state-record 93 tornadoes, and the March 2000 outbreak caused 25 deaths. Tornado damage can knock out power and spoil food in restaurants, grocers and warehouses, which can create a need for emergency cold storage or a temporary kitchen.
Flood risk in Tennessee (Year-round; heavy events in spring and late summer): Nashville received 13.6 inches of rain on May 1-2, 2010, and McEwen set a 24-hour state record of 20.7 inches in August 2021. Remnants of Hurricane Helene caused 18 deaths in September 2024. Floods can close kitchens and cut power for days, which can create a need for temporary refrigeration and warewashing while a facility is repaired.
TVA supplies power to about ten million people through 153 local power companies across Tennessee and parts of six neighboring states. Because one wholesale supplier serves most of the state, grid emergencies can affect many local utilities at once.
