At Interstate Cold Storage, we’re dedicated to providing cost-effective, reliable, and secure cold storage warehousing and distribution solutions, using a bulk cold storage model that provides faster inbound and outbound processing to support the needs of manufacturers.

As a family-owned business, we take pride in being true partners to you, our customers, and put high value in providing excellent service. Our five modern temperature-controlled and fully racked cold storage facilities are also equipped with the latest technologies to support our ammonia refrigeration systems.

Rail Access

Because rail can move a high volume of product in a single load, rail transportation can offer significant savings over shipment by truck to many destinations.

Managing the Coordination of Your Shipment

At Interstate Cold Storage, our rail spurs can handle both standard 50-ft rail cars and newer “Super Cars” with loads up to 165,000 lbs. (4 truckloads) of product. Our customer service representatives work closely with Western, Genesee, Wyoming CFE, Maumee, CSX Corporation and local freight yards, so we can better manage the coordination of product loading/unloading and scheduling of your rail shipments. Most modern refrigerated cars are monitored via satellite for temperature accuracy, fuel-level tracking, and general maintenance, so you can rest assured that your product is well taken care of.

Not only is shipping by rail often a great decision from an economic perspective, but it also contributes to lessening the burden on our already crowded US interstate system. See our locations page for information about specific facilities.

Need flexibility for more accurate distribution forecasting and on-time delivery? Our food tempering capabilities and quick-freezing solutions may be just what you’re looking for. With requests as small as one pallet, your product can be frozen and shipped quickly. Tempered product can be safely brought back to temperature and ready for shipment in just a few days, rather than weeks.
