How we plan getting a trailer to Mattawa
Every rental in Mattawa starts with the address, not a warehouse. Here is how a request for Mattawa, WA moves from call to cold storage:
- Call or send the form. Tell us the street address in Mattawa, 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.
- Mattawa is reached by county and state roads, and Washington's main corridors include I-5, I-90, and I-82. Tell us the street address and we confirm the approach, the final turn, and the room the truck needs.
- Mattawa is roughly 130 straight-line miles southeast of Seattle, Washington'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.
Emergency refrigeration support in Mattawa
Emergency support for Mattawa runs through one number, (888) 385-5513, answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Have these details ready:
In Washington, calls like this often follow wildfire and flood. If evacuations or shutoffs close a kitchen, a mobile kitchen rental and a refrigerated container can keep feeding crews and residents.
For official emergency information in Washington, see Washington Military Department, Emergency Management Division. We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.
- The address in Mattawa (and the Grant 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.
What drives cold-storage demand around Mattawa
Western Washington has a mild, Mediterranean-style climate with wet winters and relatively dry summers, while eastern Washington sits in the Cascades rain shadow with semiarid summers that can turn very hot and colder, snowier winters. The June 2021 heat wave set an all-time state record of 120 F at Hanford, and cold interior towns such as Colville have seen lows near minus 29 F. The hottest stretch runs july to September, and the coldest december to February. Both extremes put stress on commercial refrigeration in Mattawa.
Mattawa boomed with construction workers during the building of the nearby Priest Rapids and Wanapum dams and was incorporated in 1958. Large construction and industrial projects in rural areas often need temporary kitchens and crew feeding.
Wildfire risk in Washington (July to October): The 2020 season burned about 842,000 acres in Washington, with 80 fires and nearly 300,000 acres burned on September 7 alone; the 2015 Okanogan Complex burned about 305,000 acres in Okanogan County. Large fires force evacuations and business closures, and crews and evacuees often need temporary kitchens and cold storage.
Flood risk in Washington (November to January): In December 2007 the Chehalis River flooded a 20-mile stretch of I-5 under as much as 10 to 15 feet of water, and a major flood in January 2009 again submerged parts of Chehalis and shut I-5. River floods can close roads for days, cut off deliveries of refrigerated goods and damage ground-floor kitchens, which can create a need for temporary cold storage.
During the December 2007 storms, nearly all of Grays Harbor County lost electric service after a Bonneville Power Administration transmission tower was destroyed by high winds, and about 75,000 Washington customers lost power at the peak. Outages tied to transmission damage can last for days in coastal and rural counties, creating a need for backup cold storage.
Food service and business in Mattawa
The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a community like Mattawa are grocers, school and care-home kitchens, restaurants, lodges and motels, farm and ranch operations, and the groups that run fairs, rodeos, and festivals.
Washington ranks third in U.S. wine production, with more than 55,000 acres of vineyards and over 940 wineries as of 2017, and ranks second nationally in fall potato production. Wineries and potato processors depend on temperature-controlled storage and can need temporary capacity at harvest.
The Northwest Seaport Alliance of Seattle and Tacoma was described at its 2015 formation as creating the third-largest cargo gateway in the United States, handling more than 3.5 million TEUs that year. Port-area importers and exporters can need overflow or temporary refrigerated storage when volumes surge.
Mattawa 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 Washington: Omak Stampede (Second weekend of August); Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair and Strawberry Festival (June and July). Rural events can strain local food service and may need temporary kitchens and refrigerated storage.
Equipment you can rent in Mattawa
Refrigeration is our focus, and Mattawa customers rent the same four units as the rest of Washington:
Many Mattawa 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 Mattawa
Renting a refrigerated trailer in Mattawa is simple, but a few items decide whether it runs smoothly on the first day.
The Department of Health's power outage page gives household guidance (keep doors closed, a full freezer holds about two days, discard perishable food that does not feel cold, if in doubt throw it out) and does not address food establishments. Food businesses facing an outage should get establishment-specific guidance from their local health agency.
Washington's Retail Food Code (WAC 246-215) requires most food establishments to have a certified food protection manager and active managerial control, and food worker cards are governed by chapter 246-217 WAC. Temporary kitchens serving the public are generally expected to meet the same food code expectations.
- 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 Mattawa 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 Grant County Health District (food safety).
- Paperwork: your quote lists the unit, the rental length, delivery, setup, servicing, and minimum terms. An inquiry does not reserve equipment.
