KEEP AUSTIN WEIRD° — WE'LL KEEP IT COLD°

Whether you need refrigerator temperatures for catering and produce, or freezer temperatures for frozen desserts and ice cream — our trailers do both.

Our trailers are delivered to your location and stay on-site for the duration of your rental — customers do not tow or transport them.

Austin’s restaurant density is relentless — the bar-and-kitchen crush of Rainey Street, the late-night volume off East Sixth, and the destination dining along South Congress keep cold storage working overtime across the city. When a walk-in cooler goes down or a compressor fails mid-shift, every minute is spoiled product and stalled service. Keep It Cold° is the call when your walk-in goes down. We bring emergency same-day refrigeration to Austin kitchens — walk-in coolers and freezers delivered fast so a dead compressor never means dumped inventory or a closed kitchen on your busiest night.

Austin grows on planned work too, and scheduled projects need cold that shows up on time and stays out of the way. We supply multi-day rental refrigeration for restaurant kitchen remodels, institutional renovations at anchors like the University of Texas and Ascension Seton, and dining-services support for the sprawling campus cafeterias at Tesla, Dell, and Apple. Whether it’s a healthcare facility upgrade or a corporate campus food-service buildout, KIC is the professional partner who keeps food safe through every phase — properly sized units, coordinated delivery, and a cold chain that never breaks while the project runs.

When SXSW takes over the city each spring, Austin’s food-and-beverage load spikes to a scale few cities ever see — the kind of demand our refrigeration is built to back up.

Vending SXSW, ACL, or F1 at COTA? Austin Public Health holds cold TCS food at 41°F or colder — and if you can’t hold that temp, the rule is food gets discarded 4 hours after it leaves cold control. One Austin-specific wrinkle: the EVENT ORGANIZER, not each vendor, is the one who pulls each booth’s permit here — confirm your organizer actually did it before you show up.

AUSTIN COLD° STORAGE — FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What's the minimum rental period?

Our standard minimum is 1 day. Most rentals are 1–3 days for events. Longer-term rentals available — call to discuss.

What power does the trailer require?

A standard 110V outlet — dedicated 20-amp circuit, no GFCI. Not sure if your venue or job site has one? Call us and we’ll help you check.

Do I have to tow or pick up the trailer?

No. Our trailers are delivered to your location and stay on-site for the duration of your rental — you never tow or transport them.

Can you handle festival and large-event cold storage?

Yes. We supply vendor and catering operations at major Austin events — SXSW, ACL, and Formula 1 at COTA. Book early for festival weekends; demand runs high. Call us with your dates.

My walk-in failed before a busy weekend — can you deliver same-day?

Yes. Austin has one of the highest restaurant counts per capita in the country, and we run 24/7 emergency delivery across the metro for exactly this. One call and we’re on the way.

Can I use ice instead of a refrigerated trailer at an Austin festival?

Austin’s rules don’t specifically address ice chests, but they do require holding cold food at 41°F or colder under Austin Public Health and state TFER Ch. 228 — and if you can’t hold that temp, the food must be thrown out just 4 hours after it leaves temperature control. That’s a narrow margin for ice alone, which is why mechanical refrigeration is the safe standard here. See the full Austin / Travis County rules.
