Polar King Trailers in Denver, Colorado
Refrigerated Reefer Trailers Stocked in the Denver Metro
A Polar King reefer trailer is towable cold storage, an insulated box with built-in refrigeration that keeps your product cold while you move it. We stock them at our Commerce City lot, so caterers, food vendors, florists, hunters, and small businesses can keep a reliable cold chain without renting space or buying a fixed cooler. Come see one in person and picture it parked at your next job.
Polar King Reefer Trailers We Stock
6x12 Refrigerated Reefer Trailer
The 6x12 is our compact reefer, easy to tow and easy to park, with enough cold space for smaller catering jobs, deliveries, and operations working in tight spots. It is a great starting point for a growing cold-storage need.
6x16 Refrigerated Reefer Trailer
Step up to the 6x16 for more capacity. The extra length gives you room for bulk loads, larger events, and longer stretches between restocks while holding temperature throughout.
6x16 Avalanche Series
The Avalanche series is the upgraded 6x16 reefer, built for heavier use and demanding cold-storage work. It is the pick when refrigeration performance and durability matter most.
Why a Polar King Reefer
Polar King trailers are built with seamless, heavily insulated construction that holds cold air in and keeps heat out, paired with refrigeration that runs reliably day after day. Because the unit is towable, you can bring the cold storage to the event, the field, or the job site instead of working around a fixed walk-in. Stocking them locally means you can inspect one before you commit.

Polar King Refrigerated Trailer Questions
What Polar King trailers does Jayhawk Trailers stock?
We stock Polar King refrigerated trailers in the 6x16 tandem-axle size, including the Avalanche series. These are specialty units and inventory is thin by nature, so what is on the ground changes. They sit at our Commerce City lot.
Call before you drive out. On a two-unit line, a phone call saves you a trip.
Who actually buys a refrigerated trailer?
Caterers, food trucks and mobile kitchens, event and festival operators, butchers and meat processors, florists, and grocery or restaurant operations that need overflow cold storage they can move. Around Denver it is also common for hunting season and for summer event work.
It is a working asset, not a convenience purchase. If you need cold space more than a few times a year, owning beats renting fast.
Is a refrigerated trailer better than renting a reefer?
It depends entirely on how often you need it. Rental makes sense for one event a year. Ownership wins when cold storage is part of how you operate, because rental rates during peak season, holidays, and event weekends are exactly when you need the unit most and availability is worst.
Owning also means the trailer is clean, stocked, and set up the way you want it, every time.
Can a refrigerated trailer hold temperature in Colorado heat and altitude?
Yes, but give it help. Pre-cool the box before loading, load cold product rather than warm, keep door openings short, and park in shade when you can. Denver's intense high-altitude sun loads a trailer roof harder than the air temperature suggests.
Winter matters too: at Front Range temperatures a reefer often works to keep product from freezing rather than from spoiling.
What power does a refrigerated trailer need on site?
Refrigeration needs a power source, and the details depend on the specific unit and its refrigeration package. Tell us where the trailer will sit and what power you have available at your kitchen, venue, or event site, and we will confirm what a given unit requires before you buy it.
This is the question worth settling first. Everything else about the trailer is easier to change than your power situation.
Do refrigerated trailers need brakes and registration in Colorado?
Yes. A loaded reefer is well past the 3,000-pound threshold in C.R.S. 42-4-223 that requires brakes on all wheels, and Colorado titles and registers all trailers within 60 days of purchase.
If you are hauling it commercially and the combination rates over 16,001 pounds, C.R.S. 42-4-235 brings intrastate commercial requirements in as well.
