• The address in Rawlins (and the Carbon County location if it is outside town limits).

The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a city like Rawlins are supermarkets, school districts, clinics and care facilities, hotels and lodges, caterers, and local processors and growers.

Yellowstone National Park, nearly all of it in northwest Wyoming, recorded about 4.76 million visitors in 2025. Gateway-town restaurants and lodges can need extra cold storage and temporary kitchens in peak season.

Cheyenne Frontier Days draws nearly 200,000 people a year, and its free pancake breakfasts alone serve about 40,000 people. Large food service operations at a mass event rely on temporary refrigeration and warewashing.

Rawlins 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 Wyoming: Wyoming State Fair (August); College National Finals Rodeo. Fair concession stands can need temporary refrigeration and dishwashing.

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

CDC guidance says a closed refrigerator keeps food safe for up to 4 hours without power and a full freezer for about 48 hours; after that, perishable food such as meat, fish, eggs and milk should be discarded. The 4-hour window is why operators often need replacement refrigeration quickly after a power loss.

The Wyoming Department of Agriculture's Consumer Health Services division licenses retail food establishments; the Food Rule's Chapter 2 covers plan submission, license application and issuance, and inspection, and a Retail Plan Review Packet is available. Adding a temporary kitchen to an existing operation can require plan review and licensing through this state agency.

• 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 Rawlins 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 Wyoming Department of Agriculture, Consumer Health Services.
• 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 Rawlins, setup, servicing, and minimum terms are confirmed in your quote.
