Power & Technical Requirements

What size coolrooms do you offer?

We offer an extensive range of mobile coolroom trailers tailored to fit any site layout, including 7x4, 7x5, 9x6, and 10x6 single-axle units that are perfect for events and commercial needs of all sizes.

What can your coolrooms be used for?

Our pristine portable units are highly versatile and ideal for keeping stock chilled or frozen at festivals, sporting club tournaments, weddings, milestone birthday parties, corporate galas, and as rapid-response backup during emergency refrigeration breakdowns.

Are your coolrooms freezers or fridges?

Our fleet includes dedicated setups engineered for both requirements. Depending on your specific stock needs and the exact unit you hire, they can be set to run efficiently as either high-performance fridges or heavy-duty freezers.

What kind of power do I need?

Our units are designed for total convenience and run on a standard household 10-amp power point.

Are the units noisy?

We utilise modern, quiet units that are specifically designed to be friendly for residential driveways and suburban functions.

Can the units handle extreme heat?

We provide sanitised delivery to all Melbourne suburbs, including high-density areas like Southbank and regional locations like Phillip Island.

Can the coolrooms fit in a standard driveway?

Yes, our units are driveway-friendly and compact enough to fit into standard residential spaces.

You will need a clear, flat area that accommodates the total length and width of the trailer footprint, plus comfortable physical clearance for rear-door access and proper airflow ventilation around the cooling machinery.

Do you deliver and pick up the coolroom?

Do you handle the setup?
