How we plan getting a trailer to Wheatland
Every rental in Wheatland starts with the address, not a warehouse. Here is how a request for Wheatland, WY moves from call to cold storage:
- Call or send the form. Tell us the street address in Wheatland, 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 Wheatland include I-25 and US-87. 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.
- Wheatland is roughly 64 straight-line miles north of Cheyenne, Wyoming'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 Wheatland
When cold storage fails in Wheatland, speed of information matters most. Call (888) 385-5513 any hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and tell us:
In Wyoming, calls like this often follow other and tornado. When conditions like this interrupt a kitchen or a walk-in, a refrigerated trailer rental is the fastest way to protect cold product.
For official emergency information in Wyoming, see Wyoming Office of Homeland Security. We are not an emergency agency; for danger to life, call 911.
- The address in Wheatland (and the Platte 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 Wheatland
July highs average about 80F to 90F across most of the state (Casper 87F, Cheyenne about 84F) with cool nights, and humidity is moderate. Winters are cold, with Casper's January average low near 12F and Cheyenne averaging about 63 inches of snow a year. The state is windier than most of the U.S. Resorts, lodges, hospitals, and event operators rely on short-term refrigeration for busy seasons and breakdowns.
Wheatland is the seat of Platte County; the Wheatland Irrigation District is described as the largest privately owned irrigation system in the country. Irrigated agriculture around the town supports crops and livestock that can need cold storage.
The Platte County Fair and Rodeo is held at the fairgrounds, usually in the second full week of August. County fair vendors can need temporary refrigeration and warewashing.
Other risk in Wyoming (December to February): Extreme cold: Casper recorded -42F on December 22, 2022 during a winter storm, and Pinedale's record low is -49F. Deep cold can stress equipment, freeze lines and interrupt power, which can create emergency kitchen and storage needs.
Tornado risk in Wyoming (late spring to summer): The southeastern plains are the most tornado-prone area; the most destructive tornado in state history hit Cheyenne on July 16, 1979 (F3, one death and 40 injuries). Storm damage and outages in southeast Wyoming can leave stores and kitchens without refrigeration.
Rocky Mountain Power (PacifiCorp) serves Wyoming cities including Casper, Cody, Laramie, Rock Springs and Buffalo, and PacifiCorp owns coal plants in the state including Jim Bridger, Dave Johnston and Naughton. One utility serving much of Wyoming means regional storms or wildfire events can affect many communities at once.
Food service and business in Wheatland
The kinds of operations that rent refrigeration in a community like Wheatland are the town grocery, the school district kitchen, a hospital or clinic, local restaurants, small food producers, and event organizers.
Goshen County ranked first in Wyoming for cattle inventory as of 2011, and Torrington's twice-weekly livestock auctions are the largest in the state. Livestock and beef supply chains in southeast Wyoming depend on cold storage.
Sugar beets are the top agricultural product around Worland, whose top employers include Admiral Beverage, Wyoming Sugar Company, Crown Cork & Seal and MillerCoors. Food and beverage processing in the Bighorn Basin can need extra cold storage at harvest.
Wheatland 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: Cheyenne Frontier Days (late July); Wyoming State Fair (August). Food vendors and large crowds create demand for temporary kitchens, cold storage and warewashing.
Equipment you can rent in Wheatland
Refrigeration is our focus, and Wheatland customers rent the same four units as the rest of Wyoming:
If the kitchen itself is down, add a mobile kitchen and a dishwashing trailer so Wheatland operators can keep serving while cold storage is covered.
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 Wheatland
Renting a refrigerated trailer in Wheatland is simple, but a few items decide whether it runs smoothly on the first day.
Consumer Health Services publishes Temporary Food Stand Requirements for temporary food events. Event vendors using temporary refrigeration or kitchens should check these requirements before an event.
The Consumer Health Services site lists Disaster Relief and Wildfire Resources pages, though no outage-specific food guidance was found on the food safety page. The Department of Health lists Public Health Preparedness and Response resources. Emergency operators can start with these state resources after fires or outages.
- 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 Wheatland 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.
