Holiday Refrigeration Rentals: Increase Storage Capacity for the Seasonal Rush

The holiday season brings a surge of opportunity—and a surge of stress—for restaurants, hotels, caterers, and event venues across New England. Extra menu items, special events, higher foot traffic, and increased perishable inventory all raise the stakes. If your walk-in cooler or freezer can’t keep up, you risk spoilage, lost revenue, and last-minute chaos.

That’s where walk in cooler and freezer rentals—and specifically holiday refrigeration rentals—step in. Mobile refrigerator and freezer trailers, and other plug-in solutions, make it possible to scale up storage quickly when you need it most. At Century Leasing, we provide a wide variety of sizes and configurations of temporary commercial refrigeration —7’x12’ and 7’x16’ cooler and freezer trailers, 10’, 20’ & 40’ plug-in containers to 28’, 34’, 45’, 48’, and 53’ refrigerated trailers—so your holiday preparations stay smooth, efficient, and cost-effective.

Why the Holiday Rush Intensifies Storage Needs

During the holidays, especially in states like Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine, businesses face unique storage challenges:

• Extended hours, large catering orders, and banquet events push normal capacity 
• Seasonal menu items mean more temperature-sensitive stock (meats, desserts, specialty ingredients) 
• Holiday promotions mean higher turnover of perishable goods 
• Equipment breakdowns or maintenance often happen at the worst possible times 
• In rural or coastal regions, delivery schedules and logistics may be less flexible 

Having a variety of short-term storage solutions allows businesses to be more flexible with inventory ordering and easily manage the overflow. 

Plug-in Holiday Refrigeration: Why 110 V Matters

Many cold storage options require heavy electrical infrastructure or generators. Century Leasing’s 110 V units flip that script. Our mobile refrigerated trailers and walk-in coolers and freezers plug into a standard outlet—yes, the same one you’d use in many back-of-house setups—and deliver a temperature range of 0-50 °F. That makes them a practical, energy-efficient option for holiday usage.

Whether you’re running a 12’ catering trailer rental for cocktail hour back-up, a 20’ walk-in freezer for dessert overflow, or a large 53’ refrigerated trailer for a hotel buffet prep zone, the 110 V capability gives you speed and simplicity.

Size & Configuration: Match to Your Holiday Need

Here are some common holiday storage use-cases and how our solutions fit:

• • Boutique restaurant or hotel banquet hall: Use a 10’ or 20’ plug-in walk-in cooler/freezer container to handle extra desserts, seasonal specials or overflow inventory. 
  • Large catering event or pop-up holiday market: Deploy a 7’x16’ mobile refrigerated trailer for easy delivery and relocation on-site. 
  • Grocery store gearing up for holiday shift: Our 40’ units handle large restocks of seasonal perishables; for truly massive inventory needs, we offer 28’, 34’, 45’, 48 ’, and 53’ refrigerated trailers.
    
  • Outdoor holiday festival or vendor village: Combine portable walk-ins with mobile freezer trailers to manage beverage service, food vendors, or event support operations.
    

The New England Advantage: Quick Delivery & Local Support

In New England—whether you’re in Boston, Portland, Providence, Salem or Hartford—the holiday window is tight. Every hour counts. That’s why Century Leasing emphasizes local service, fast deployment, and flexible rental terms. Our plug-in units are energy-efficient and can be set up quickly, so you don’t fall behind.

How to Choose & Deploy Your Holiday Refrigeration Rental

Here’s a checklist to help you get ahead of your holiday refrigeration needs:

1. 1. Assess expected volume: Estimate your increased usage over standard months (meals served, events booked, catering orders). 
   2. Determine storage type: Do you need a cooler (above 32 °F) for prepped ingredients? Or freezer (below 32 °F) for desserts and meats? 
   3. Evaluate power access: Is a standard 110 V outlet available? If not, talk to Century Leasing about setup logistics. 
   4. Select size & mobility: Choose a unit size based on your site, usage length, and whether relocation may be needed (e.g., between kitchen and event space). 
   5. Schedule delivery & pickup: Align the rental period with your holiday surge—rentals often contract from a few days to several weeks. 

• Plan for flexibility: Use temporary commercial refrigeration as insurance for equipment failure, unexpected business spikes, or unplanned events.
