Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Trailers
Need to store product cold — or hard-frozen — on site? Our walk-in cooler and freezer trailers give Ann Arbor businesses, campus groups and events dependable temperature-controlled space when in-house capacity runs short or a compressor fails. Every unit holds anywhere from 0°F to 50°F, reaches setpoint in about an hour, and runs on standard building power — so setup works wherever you park it, campus lots and downtown alleys included.
Walk-In Cooler Mode (34°F to 40°F)
Our most-requested setup for Ann Arbor restaurants, caterers and campus events. Holds produce, dairy, beverages, floral and prepped food through game weekends, graduation, weddings and the Art Fair. Cold-holding for prepared food needs to stay at or below 41°F, which this range covers with margin.
Walk-In Freezer Mode (down to 0°F)
Built for hard-frozen inventory — ice cream, frozen proteins and prepped meals. A dependable backup for grocers, food producers, research labs and kitchens when an in-house freezer goes down, and for food-recovery groups during move-out week.
Specs & Benefits
- 0°F to 50°F — one setpoint per trailer, set before it leaves the yard
- Reaches setpoint in about an hour — arrives ready to load
- Dedicated 15A, 110–125V circuit — standard three-prong plug, 25' cord included, no generator required
- Kingtec and Govi refrigeration running on electric standby — no engine, no exhaust, no noise
- Step-in floor at ground height — roll carts and hand trucks straight through, no ramp or forklift
- Fits campus lots, job sites, event grounds and tight downtown drives across Washtenaw County
- Interior cleaned and temperature-verified before every delivery
- Lockable door for overnight security at venues and job sites

Who Rents Cold Storage in Ann Arbor
Six situations we handle nearly every week across Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County.
🏪 Restaurant & Kitchen Backup
When a walk-in fails downtown, in Kerrytown or out toward Ypsilanti and Saline, we get a trailer to your dock or lot so you keep serving while the refrigeration company sources the part.
🏗️ Remodels & Cooler Replacement
Grocery refreshes, kitchen buildouts and walk-in replacements need somewhere for product to live for three to six weeks. A 30-day trailer is usually cheaper than discarding inventory or renting warehouse space across town.
🎓 University & Campus Events
Home football Saturdays, graduation weekend, reunions, move-in and move-out, and department events. We place trailers on Central and North Campus lots and near the residence halls, on your schedule, and pull them once the weekend clears.
🔬 Medical, Research & Labs
Hospitals, clinics, pharmacies and university research labs across Ann Arbor use mobile refrigeration to protect vaccines, samples and medication during equipment failures, facility work and planned shutdowns.
🍽️ Food Production & Catering
Commercial kitchens, catering companies, bakeries and meal-prep businesses use the extra capacity to hold ingredients and finished product at safe temperature through their busiest weeks.
⚡ Power Outages
Storms take walk-ins down across Washtenaw County every summer. If your building has power and your cooler does not, a trailer plugs into a working circuit and saves the load. If the whole block is dark, we will talk through options honestly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you get a refrigerated trailer to Ann Arbor?
If you call before mid-afternoon and a unit is open, we can often deliver the same day anywhere in Washtenaw County. Standard bookings are typically scheduled for the next business day. Football Saturdays, graduation weekend and the Art Fair book up fast, so reserve early when you can. Call 586-496-4883 to check what is open right now.
Can I rent a trailer during a power outage?
Storm outages are one of the most common reasons Ann Arbor businesses call us. If your building has power and your walk-in does not, a trailer plugs into a working circuit and holds your product. If the whole block is dark, we will talk through generator options honestly rather than sell you a unit that cannot run.
What does a refrigerated trailer rental cost in Ann Arbor?
A small trailer starts at $599 for three days, $899 for seven days and $2,900 for thirty. A medium trailer starts at $729, $1,100 and $3,500 for the same terms. Delivery and pickup are quoted by distance to your address, a deposit is required, and the minimum rental is three days. Call 586-496-4883 for an exact quote.
How cold do the trailers get?
Every unit holds anywhere from 0°F to 50°F and is set to your temperature before it leaves our yard. Cooler mode holds roughly 34°F to 40°F for produce, dairy, drinks and prepared plates — comfortably below the 41°F cold-holding requirement. Freezer mode pulls down to 0°F for meat, seafood, ice cream and frozen product. One trailer holds one setpoint, so if you need chilled and frozen separately we can deliver two units.
What are the power requirements?
Our trailers need a dedicated 15A, 110–125V circuit and plug into a standard three-prong outlet. A 25' cord is included and no generator is required. Dedicated is the important word — a refrigeration compressor draws a brief surge when it starts, so sharing the circuit with a fryer, coffee line or POS gear will trip the breaker. If you are unsure about the outlet at your site, describe it on the phone and we will confirm before we roll.
Can you deliver near campus or into downtown Ann Arbor?
Yes. We place trailers on North Campus and Central Campus lots, at fraternity and sorority houses, in downtown alleys behind restaurants, and in tight residential drives near Burns Park and Kerrytown. Send us a photo of the spot and our driver will confirm clearance before the delivery date. The unit needs a dedicated outlet within reach of the 25' cord.
How long does it take to get cold once it's delivered?
About an hour to reach setpoint from ambient, and we set the temperature before the unit leaves our yard so it arrives ready. Loading warm product extends that, because the unit has to remove that heat as well.
Can I rent one for a graduation party or student move-out?
Yes — those are two of our busiest weeks in Ann Arbor. Families renting for graduation open houses usually take the 3-day option, while property managers and food-recovery groups handling move-out volume often book a week or longer. Reserve early, because late April and early May fill up fast.
Which Washtenaw County communities do you cover?
Along with Ann Arbor, we deliver to Ypsilanti, Saline, Dexter, Chelsea, Pittsfield Township, Whitmore Lake, Milan, Manchester, Scio Township, Superior Township and the surrounding Washtenaw communities. Call 586-496-4883 and we will confirm scheduling for your address.
