Emergency Refrigeration in Rochester
When cooling fails in Rochester
When a walk-in cooler fails or the power goes out in Rochester, product is at risk within hours. Emergency refrigeration from Midstate puts a refrigerated trailer or container on site so food, medicine or inventory can be moved and kept cold. Our line is open 24/7 at (218) 203-8233. Rochester is about 185 miles southeast of our Baxter base in a straight line, and we confirm the unit, the power and the delivery timing once we know your address.
Who depends on cold storage here
Cold storage matters to the places that keep Rochester running. Care and health providers here include St. Marys Hospital, Mayo Clinic and Olmsted Medical Center. Large employers include Mayo Clinic, Rochester Public Schools, IBM and Olmsted Medical Center. A rented trailer can add capacity while a failed unit is repaired. These are examples of who relies on refrigeration, not a list of our customers.
Weather, outages and recovery
Documented examples include the 1883 tornado: it killed 37 people and injured about 200, and the Mayo family cared for the wounded, which led to St. Marys Hospital. Another is the June 17, 2010 tornado: it damaged or destroyed homes and businesses around the Lincolnshire neighborhood on the northwest side. Climate figures from the reference page: Rochester gets about 33 inches of rain and 52 inches of snow a year, and it averages a 12.6 mph wind, which the reference page ranks second among U.S. cities. When the grid or a compressor is down, portable refrigeration lets a business keep product cold while the repair or the restoration is finished.
Getting a unit to your site
Send the street address and the nearest cross street. We also ask about gate width, overhead lines and where the trailer will sit. A firm, level pad close to the loading door works best, and in winter the approach needs to be plowed and the pad clear of ice. We cannot promise a delivery time until we know your site and what is available, so call first.
