Top 5 Ice Machine Rental in Mesa, AZ

Commercial Refrigeration Service, Inc. has been renting and repairing ice machines out of North Phoenix since 1963, which makes them the oldest company we checked for Mesa. They are also the only one here publishing a rental rate that folds installation, repairs, parts and water filtration into one monthly payment. And their 24-month term is the only contract length anyone here publishes. They are authorized dealers who still service every brand, so a mixed kitchen can stay with one technician. But we did not find a capacity range for their machines, and their posted hours end at 5pm with Sunday closed. We recommend you ask what happens to the machine and the rate when the 24 months run out.

Arizona Ice & Water leases ice and water machines to Arizona workplaces, and they are the only company we checked that names a technician certification level, Level-3 Manitowoc. Their lease covers maintenance, repairs and equipment warranties, and they promise same-day or next-day service. They are also the youngest company here, founded in 2018. And their range is narrower than the two ice specialists here, built mostly around combined ice and water units. But we found no street address for them in the Phoenix metro. Their only published address is in Tucson, and Mesa is covered through a Phoenix phone line under a statewide claim. We suggest asking where the technician covering Mesa is based before you sign.

Easy Ice places commercial ice machines on monthly subscriptions, and they are the only company here whose whole business is ice. They carry more ice types than anyone else we checked, and they are the only one promising emergency response every day of the year. But they also say round-the-clock cover depends on the market. Their subscription includes cleaning, filters and repairs. Installation is not in it, though. They charge a one-time fee of about two months' subscription, and we found no published monthly price. Because of that, we would advise getting the installation fee and the full contract term in writing.

Bottleless Nation is a national water and ice company with a Phoenix branch, and their ice lineup is wider than the coffee and breakroom companies serving Mesa. Those offer only ice and water combination units. They go up to hotel-style dispensers and scoop bin cubers. They handle installation, sanitization and filter changes, and bill one fixed amount every month. They also commit to responding within two days. But that is slower than the same-day or next-day windows some companies here publish. And we did not find repairs listed in what the monthly bill covers. So we recommend you ask whether a repair visit, parts included, sits inside that fixed amount.

Parks Coffee is a Texas coffee service that has run office routes since 1986, and they place ice and water dispensers with the offices on those routes. They are the only company we checked that lists their coverage by county, seven in Arizona. But ice is a side line for them, and their range is as narrow as any here. What they do publish is the upkeep. Their technicians clean, sanitize and change filters, and they promise a certified technician within 24 hours of a call. And we did not find a capacity figure or any rental terms. We suggest asking whether those cleaning visits sit inside the rental or get billed per visit.
