HOW EVENT ORGANISERS BENEFIT FROM LEASING REFRIGERATED CONTAINERS

Refrigerated Containers are often found behind the scenes of major events, serving in a broad array of essential roles. Their simple but robust construction, excellent price-to-volume ratio, and practical features make Reefers a mainstay in many fields of business, including event organisation.

To fully understand why Reefer Containers are so helpful in catering at public events, it’s necessary to take a closer look at some of their technical and operational features. So here is what to pay attention to if you are looking into the possibility of using Reefers to streamline the organisation, safe storage and delivery of food and drink at business or entertainment events:

Instant Solution for On-Location Catering

Keeping food fresh until the scheduled time can be a big challenge, especially when events are held in outdoor locations without access to a conventional kitchen space. Refrigerated Containers provide a simple solution and can be delivered on-site just before the event starts. They are equipped to hold various perishable supplies and can reach and maintain a variety of temperatures to ensure goods are kept in the optimal environment. Since retrieving items from Reefers is very simple, when required, organisers sometimes decide to provide basic catering internally, without the need to outsource this job. Owing to their mobility, Reefer Containers can be used at a wide range of venues and can be easily moved into a suitable position before being loaded.

Flexible Storage Allows for Better Planning

Access to ample refrigerated space allows event managers to prepare for every eventuality. The broad range of temperatures supported by Refrigerated Containers allows an extensive range of different goods to be stored inside, from food and drinks that need cooling to sensitive equipment that could be damaged by heat or moisture. Some event organisers choose to keep a Reefer Container in reserve in case they need additional cold storage capacity at short notice.

Great Benefits for Small and Large Events

Refrigerated Containers provide financial savings and practical advantages that increase alongside the scale of the event they are used for. Since Reefer Containers come in standard sizes and are easy to line up or stack to save space, they are suitable for use in various venues, including outdoor events.

Spacewise Reefer Containers are Available and Ready to Go!

In the event industry, time is money. Reefer Containers can be leased from Spacewise and delivered quickly to almost anywhere in the UK. This empowers event management companies and caterers alike to take on ambitious projects and provide food and drink for any number of people. Flexible and affordable lease agreements are available for businesses of all sizes, and companies can choose between premium 10ft, 20ft, or 40ft Containers with built-in Refrigeration systems.

BULKPOWDERS

Thank you very much for the service provided by Spacewise. BULKPOWDERS rented 3 x 40ft Refrigerators for the summer season. An excellent service from our initial phone call through to the end of the agreement. Great communications, ease of contract, quick delivery of selected refrigerators, with a faultless rental agreement period. Thank you for the service

Equipment delivery is good quality and clean. Commissioning (usually next day unless otherwise organised) is complete by suitably qualified engineers and an ‘operating’ explanation given to the end user.

In addition their after-sales support is very good, tech. offering advice and engineer if deemed appropriate.

We contacted Spacewise to supply us with 2 refrigeration storage units on behalf of the client and their bar supplier as a long hire during the peak season. We haven’t experienced a single problem with them and we have found the team to be helpful and reliable at all times. Happy bar company, happy client! They come highly recommended.
