Refrigeration Services – Restaurant Refurbishments

Posted by On June 23, 2017 0 Comment
  • Have you sourced effective refrigeration services during a restaurant refurbishment?
  • Have you momentarily forgotten about food safety as you choose the colour scheme and furnishings?
  • Where is your stock going to be housed when the kitchen and restaurant spaces are over run with decorators?
  • Can you leave refrigerated and frozen stock on site – will the electricity be off?
  • Does freezer trailer rental and restaurant fridge hire sound expensive to you? (It isn’t!)

There is so much to think about when you’re planning a restaurant refurbishment.

However, by methodically planning how the refurbishment can be carried out successfully whilst all stock, whether that’s refrigerated, frozen or food cupboard items, is stored safely and legally, you can remove some of the stress and meet responsibilities.

Freezer trailer rental and restaurant fridge hire facilities don’t have to be positioned indoors, they’ll run effectively in your car park, a marquee and even in the middle of a field.

Don’t worry if your restaurant refurbishment is imminent, many service providers offer emergency hire.
