Cancellation fees apply and increase as the delivery date approaches. This measure ensures more equipment is available for those who will use it and goes towards covering our costs leading up to the hire date.
Any equipment or service ordered and then cancelled/postponed inside of 60 days will attract a cancellation/postponement fee:
0% outside of 60 days of your delivery date (no charge).
30% within 60 days of your delivery date.
50% within 14 days of your delivery date.
100% within 3 days of your delivery date.
This includes orders cancelled/postponed for any reason including weather, disasters, death, pandemics (COVID-19) etc. Cancellation insurance is available from insurance providers such as Entertainment Insurance, JLT, OzPrize & Weather Insurance, CHUBB, Talbot Underwriting, Able Underwriting and more.
Please do not call/email to dispute any cancellation fees after confirming the hire agreement for any reason.
If you are not 100% comfortable that the hire conditions fit your requirements, we’re happy for you to wait until you are.
Upon delivery, we require a bond as security for the equipment. The bond is taken as a hotel-style credit card pre-authorisation imprint that allows us to charge for any loss, repair, extra hire, extra cleaning or damage after the hire. A $10 verification amount will be pending on your statement to verify a legitimate card.
Any costs to Jordo’s Coolrooms incurred from recovering overdue equipment or money is fully payable by the hirer. This includes legal costs, debt collection costs, and equipment recovery service costs.
Please call us on 0421 376 967 first, as we can troubleshoot the fastest via a phone call. Please don’t email or message us via social media with service requests, please call us first.
All equipment must be checked at the time of receiving and operated as early as possible. We are less likely to do an after-hours call-out for an issue that could have been identified during business hours.
You must conduct regular temperature checks as per health requirements and let us know immediately if there are any problems.
Our insurance does not cover stock loss for any reason. As the owner of the stock, you need to add it to your own policy or engage an insurance provider if required.
Please make sure you have fully read these instructions before using any of our equipment to avoid extra cleaning, hire or damage charges.
→ All of our equipment and equipment’s included items must be returned in the same condition as it was delivered or the hirer will be charged for repair or replacement.

It is your responsibility to ensure all power leads will not be a trip hazard. Please also make sure your leads are clear of water, heat, and any other hazardous source.
Please note: Equipment contains GPS tracking unit(s) to prevent theft and recover stolen equipment. If you are using the equipment in a high-security area, please check that these transmitters won’t be a problem on-site.
Important – You are responsible for following food safety guidelines and performing regular temperature checks.
In the event of a breakdown, we will immediately replace the unit or repair the unit (whichever is faster).
Our coolrooms include a door lock barrel system for you to add your own padlock, but like anything, can be broken into with enough effort. It is your responsibility to provide security or a secure area for your coolroom or freezer to be parked.
We will set up the coolroom and get it running for you. You will need a 240v power outlet within 20 meters of the trailer.
Standard 10 amp power is required for coolrooms and 15 amp power is required for freezers. Do not run any other devices from the same power supply to avoid overloading the circuit.
Our coolrooms are pre-set to 1.7°c and fluctuate between 0°c and 4°c approx. during their regular cycling. If you require a different temperature (florists etc) please let us know prior to arrival.
Our freezer trailers are pre-set to -18°c and fluctuate between -20°c and -16°c, these can also be adjusted by our staff if required.
If the overload safety switches trip for any reason, please call us immediately and we will assist you. If you are using a petrol/diesel generator, please ensure that it is a pure sine wave unit to avoid damage to the cool room or freezer.
Prior to collection, please ensure shelves, rubber mat, wheel chocks, power lead, and any other loaned equipment is ready for us to collect.
Tips: if you are cooling large quantities of drinks/food etc that are warm, leave air space between your stock (especially cartons) for faster chilling. The less cold air that can get between your stock the longer it will take to chill. If you need to chill large quantities of product you may need to hire your coolroom earlier so you can get it chilled on time. If you have pre-chilled your stock you won’t have to wait.
Our trailers usually get down to temperature in less than 30 minutes but keep in mind it will take longer for your stock to chill.
When cooling down your unit, please do not open the door. You must first let the coolroom get down to temperature and de-humidify or the coolroom blower will freeze up. This will take a while to defrost and operate correctly again.
We recommend totally turning off the unit’s power if the door will be open for a long period while loading/unloading.
Quick in-and-out visits to the unit are fine but if the door will be open for more than a couple of minutes (loading a pallet etc) will ice the refrigeration equipment and we strongly recommend unplugging at this time.
Minimizing icing of the blower dramatically improves the performance of the coolroom or freezer.
At the end of hire we will conduct and full clean of the unit, however, all rubbish and stock must be removed from the coolroom or freezer before collection.
If you have any great photo’s of our equipment in action we’d love you to share them with the Jordo’s Coolrooms community via social media! To share, simply reply to your order invoice with your pics.
