Looking for Cold or Refrigerated Storage Solutions?
Many of our customers use our shipping containers for long-term or short-term refrigerated or cold storage needs. We have a variety of options that we can offer for those looking for mobile, seasonal, or long-term chillers, freezers, or refrigerated storage. There are limitless applications for our shipping containers in the refrigerated storage market. Plus, we can create customized solutions to fit your specific needs upon request. Here is a look at the products we can offer to quickly and affordably solve your needs for refrigerated storage solutions:
- Single-Phase Chillers and Freezers – This is a new product we have developed specifically for clients in locations without access to a three-phase electrical supply. These are simple units built to satisfy needs for either chilling or freezing goods. Unfortunately, a single unit cannot provide both chilling and freezing capability. The chiller units can control temperatures from +55°F (+12°C) to +32°F (0°C), and the freezer units can control temperatures from +5°F (-15°C) to -12°F(-25°C).
- Ice-Cubz – These are rentals of mobile, cold storage units that provide excellent solutions for those with seasonal events, catering businesses, pop-up restaurants, or outdoor entertainment venues. We deliver these cold storage shipping containers directly to your location.
- Refrigerated Containers – These units require a dedicated three-phase power supply. Most of our cold storage containers maintain an internal temperature ranging from -10°F to +80°F. You can set the temp and change it right on the machine itself. These work well for businesses needing long-term cold storage solutions or ones with short-term peak selling season needs. For instance, we often rent these units to Wal-Mart for additional storage of their turkey and ham during the holiday season.
Trying to Find Affordable Dry Storage Solutions?
A lot of customers also use our shipping containers for short-term or long-term dry storage solutions. They offer the benefit of not having to pour a foundation for them due to the heavy-duty flooring inside. Another important benefit is that the all-steel construction keeps out rodents and pests, making them a much sturdier solution than plastic or wood outbuildings. In addition, they come in a number of size options like the following:
- Length – Standard containers come in two different sizes. You can choose from 20-foot and 40-foot containers. However, we also offer 10-foot and 45-foot options.
- Width – All shipping containers come in a standard 8-foot width.
- Height – There are two unique height options. The standard height containers are 8’6”. Meanwhile, the tall containers that we call High Cub containers are 9’6”.
