What You Should Consider When Choosing the Food Trailer Refrigerator and Freezer?

Food trailer refrigerators or freezers keep food and ingredients fresh and safe for your customers, so they are vital components of your mobile food trailer business. For mobile food trailer owners, a good fridge ensures the high quality of your dishes and the success of your business. At ETO DEVICE, we provide various types of efficient food trailer refrigerators and freezers for our clients. How to choose an ideal one for your mobile food trailer? Here are something questions for you before demanding any model on our food trailer equipment list.

 

What is the Type of My Mobile Food Trailer Business?

Your business is a big factor you should consider when determining any type of food trailer fridge. What do you plan to sell in your food trailer? Do you want to offer a cold treat in summer? Or will you serve eaters with delicious cheeseburgers? A variety of food trailer freezer and refrigerator options we offer in the customization of a food trailer has disparate functions. You should choose a food trailer refrigerator or freezer that is suitable for your business and daily operation.  A salad fridge does no good for a coffee trailer business.

 

Should My Food be Refrigerated or Frozen?

The room in a food trailer is such a rarity. A food trailer refrigerator or food freezer takes up more area than other kitchen appliances. It is not necessary to have both of them for most food trailer owners. So, think about the preservation of your food. For example, a food trailer freezer is a waste of power and room for a mobile trailer bar that offers drinks and snacks. If you are a skillful chef and looking for a mobile kitchen, a food trailer refrigerator and a food trailer freezer should be in the equipment kits of your catering trailer. These units are dispensable for freezing and defrosting, keeping your food in the best condition.

 

Do I Need Some Space for Toppings?

In general, bench refrigerators and freezers are hot choices for most food trailer owners because of their functional features and large countertop. However, these units lose their advantages if you have to open the door frequently during making food that requires different toppings, such as pizza, burgers, salads, and sandwiches. Our pizza fridge and salad fridge have refrigerated stainless steel pans on the countertop, allowing you to grab toppings handily. The refrigeration equipment is fixed at the front workbench. You can show your deft movement in cooking and baking to eaters near the big service window.

 

How Much Refrigeration Storage Does My Business Need?

It is not proper to have a 350L food trailer freezer in a 7ft ice cream trailer, right? It takes up too much room, and you barely can move comfortably if you fix other kitchen equipment in it. So, the size of the food trailer refrigerator and freezer should be a big factor for your consideration. You should estimate the amount of refrigerated food as well as the size of your food trailer. Generally speaking, an 180L food trailer refrigerator provides a large refrigeration compartment for an 11ft food trailer used to sell hot dogs and pancakes. You can send us an inquiry now to get a detailed specification of our food trailer refrigerator and freezer.

 

How Much Power Does the Food Trailer Refrigerator or Freezer Consume?

Unlike deep fryers and griddles, food trailer refrigerators and food trailer freezers are mainly powered by electricity. That means you have to check their wattage before ordering. Your mobile food trailer is running on a power source. You don’t want to have an overloaded generator during lunch rush hours, do you? When we build your custom food trailer, our engineer will calculate the power of all the electric kitchen appliances in your trailer and recommend a powerful generator for you. Food trailer refrigerators and food trailer freezers we source for our clients have a more energy-efficient design than a commercial system in restaurants. They are not a burden for your generator.

 

What are the Regulations and Codes in your City?

Local regulations and codes of mobile units are an important factor because your mobile unit, seen as a commercial kitchen, needs specific equipment to ensure your legal operation of the street food business. They may specify the specification of kitchen appliances on a food trailer, such as storage capacity, operating temperature, and adjustable thermostat. These regulations differ in countries and cities. Hence, be aware of these local laws before you buy any appliances for your food trailer. We offer standard commercial freezers and fridges that meet strict standards in the USA, the UK, and Austria as options in the process of building your unique food trailer. Our excellent after-sales services ensure that you can benefit from your fully equipped mobile food trailer.
