    Walk-in Cooler

    Morning fellas!
    Anyone in Kelowna have cooler space between Sept 15-30? I'm looking for a place close to hang my Elk for a week? This year I will be cutting & packaging my own meat.
    PM me if you do and live up highway 33.
    Thank you

    Phone a larger refrigeration company and see if they have some used panels kicking around, then from there just need to get something to cool it down to temperature.
    I like drinking beer and whiskey, shooting guns, jetboating, love a nice rack and a tight line, I am simply a sophisticated redneck...

I use to be hanging home raised beef and pork to process for ourselves and our neighbours in addition to game, but now that I am probably only looking at needing something for a few weeks a year this is the route I will be going.

    The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who are bereft of that gift.

    similar here, built a cooler unit for my trailer with a coolbot. Works great.
    Totally worth it. Can’t believe we didn’t build one sooner.

    I now have a double door SS commecial fridge for the gamey task.

    If you want to build your own cooler, Kingspan in Glouhester Estates, Langley is the place to call for panels. I used to make the panels at what used to be called Mansonville Plastics also in Langley. You'll likely be able to buy everything you need there like the door and hardware.

    Otherwise make your own insulated shed with a/c unit.
