Portable cold storage rentals without the permanent build
Building a permanent cold room isn’t an overnight process. In addition to the huge upfront cost, you may face construction delays, permit issues and disruptions. Our portable cold rooms help you add capacity quickly without needing a fixed build-out.
We offer refrigerated containers for rent and sale across Australia. Our extensive collection of ArcticStore refrigerated container rentals is designed to meet all needs.
TITAN clients use temporary cold storage for urgent backup, seasonal stock, project work or long-term cold storage. Your products stay close to your team, loading areas or production line.
Our flexible contracts are a big attraction, too. Unlike some companies, we won’t tie you down with a long contract that far exceeds the time you want to rent.
Our portable cold room options
ArcticStore refrigerated containers are popular worldwide. For portable cold storage, they’re hard to beat. Available in 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft sizes, they maintain temperatures from -40°C to +45°C, depending on model. They’re suitable for chilled and frozen storage.
If energy use is a key concern, ask us about ArcticStore Horizon – one of our latest innovations. It’s our most environmentally friendly portable cold room, capable of reducing energy use by an average of 55% compared with traditional refrigerated containers.
If one or more containers aren’t enough, we have another option: Arctic SuperStore. These custom-built setups combine multiple ArcticStores and are well-suited to large-scale operations.
| Model | Sizes | Temperature range | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| ArcticStore | 10ft, 20ft, 40ft | -40°C to +45°C | Standard portable cold storage for chilled and frozen use |
| ArcticStore Horizon | 40ft | -30°C to +30°C | An environmentally friendly portable cold room with lower energy use |
| Arctic SuperStore | 20ft and 40ft, configured to any size | -40°C to +45°C | Modular cold storage when one container is not enough |
When portable cold storage rental makes sense
Portable refrigeration works well when your fixed cold space is full or out of action – or maybe it’s simply in the wrong place? This can easily happen, especially as growing businesses develop.
Common reasons people call TITAN for portable cold storage include:
- Equipment breakdowns and emergency backup: portable units keep temperature-sensitive stock protected while repairs or replacements are arranged.
- Seasonal peaks and promotions: extra space for retail, supermarket, agriculture or food and beverage cold storage demand.
- Renovations, refits and project work: ArcticStores keep products close while permanent rooms are being changed, serviced or expanded.
- Events, catering, launches and site expansion: we help clients place cold storage close to the action when fixed rooms are not practical.
We also help pharma and public health buyers with cold storage needs. For more information, check out our guide to safe pharmaceutical cold storage.

Preparing your site for setup and placement
TITAN has delivered thousands of cold storage containers to clients across Australia. Countless hours “on the ground” have given us plenty of insight into how people use our containers. To get the most out of your rental, follow these tips:
- Choose level, stable ground. This helps the container sit properly and makes daily use easier. Choose badly, and you’ll regret it every day.
- Plan the delivery route. Make sure the truck can reach the position safely and without major disruption. Pay close attention to overhead obstacles, like tree branches and cables.
- Consider staff access. Think through loading, unloading, picking and restocking during busy periods. Where is the #1 best position for your portable cold storage unit?
- Check airflow and sun exposure. These details can affect where the portable cold room should sit. Avoid choosing a spot where your container will be in direct sunlight all day if possible.
