Polar Leasing breaks ground on Texas hub

Feb. 3, 2025
Refrigerated trailer supplier plans to establish a new 12,800-sq.-ft. distribution facility for its walk-in units in Temple.

Polar Leasing Company recently broke ground on a new distribution hub in Texas.

Located in Temple, the 12,800-sq.-ft. facility is positioned to serve the company’s customers and freight partners in the south-central portion of the U.S. This is the second new hub revealed in the last two months. Polar Leasing also launched deliveries from a new established hub in Sumterville, Florida, in December.

“This is another major milestone that we’re incredibly proud of at Polar Leasing,” Bart Tippmann, Polar Leasing president, said in a news release. “We started the business more than two decades ago when we saw a gap in the marketplace for high-quality walk-in freezers and refrigeration units available on a rental basis.

“To grow from our Fort Wayne headquarters into a second hub is tremendous, representing our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of service and unit quality for our customers.”

The Temple facility’s location was carefully selected for its proximity to major transportation routes, enabling efficient coordination with PLC’s depot network and freight partners. Tippmann says the new hub provides customers with access to newer walk-in refrigerated and freezer units quicker than previously possible.

Polar Leasing's walk-in units serve a variety of industries, including foodservice, hospitality, agricultural, hunting, pharmaceutical, education, and healthcare facilities. The outdoor walk-in freezer and refrigerator rentals arrive pre-assembled and ready to operate with a simple electrical connection, the company said.
