A temporary refrigeration rental starts before the trailer arrives and ends after the last inventory transfer. Assign an on-site contact for both delivery and collection so that access, power and operating decisions have a clear owner.
Start here
- Confirm the agreed arrival window and who can receive the unit.
- Clear the approved placement area and access route; report any changed conditions before dispatch.
- Review the offered unit’s operating instructions and acceptance checks with the receiving team.
- Plan the stock transfer with the person responsible for product handling. Keep aisles and required airflow clear.
Facts to confirm before dispatch
- Written delivery and pickup responsibilities
- Equipment condition and accessories recorded at receipt
- Site-approved electrical arrangements for the offered unit
- Extension notice, authorization and any revised charges
- Inventory removal, cleaning responsibilities and agreed collection access
Keep the unit available until the inventory is removed and pickup is confirmed. Follow the supplied instructions for shutdown and disconnection; do not improvise electrical work or move the trailer yourself without authorization.
