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

Nothing hey!
What if I was to build a cooler with cutting & wrapping tables?
Any interest in anyone wanting to use it for there Game, Hang,cut & wrap with your buddies?

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.

Yes these work quite well. I know a couple of people that have done this and I plan to do the same thing. I use to have a full size commercial walk in cooler but sold it during our last move. After seeing how these work I feel it is the most economical way for me to achieve what I want going forward. 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.

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.
