Immediate urgent breakdown call.

What counts as an emergency

Call the emergency line whenever stock or food safety is at risk and the fault cannot wait for business hours.

The most common after-hours calls are:

  • A cold room or freezer room warming above safe temperature
  • A display fridge or freezer that has stopped cooling during trade
  • A breakdown that has closed the kitchen or stopped service
  • A refrigeration fault threatening a full stock loss overnight

What to do while you wait

Keep doors shut to hold temperature for as long as possible — every opening lets cold air out. Move high-value or high-risk stock to any working cold storage you have access to. Write down the current temperature and any fault code or alarm message; it helps the technician diagnose faster on arrival. Do not keep resetting equipment that trips straight back out, as that can mask the underlying fault.

How emergency dispatch works

The line is answered at all hours, not by a message bank. The team triages the fault, confirms your location and sends the nearest available technician. After-hours and emergency rates differ from standard business-hours service, and the team tells you the call-out basis before a technician is confirmed — no surprises once the job is done.

FAQ

Questions this page should answer.

Is RHQ genuinely available 24/7 for emergencies?

Yes. The emergency line on (07) 3808 6000 is answered at all hours. Dispatch will triage the fault and advise the next available technician for your area.

What qualifies as a refrigeration emergency?

An emergency is any fault where stock is at risk of spoiling, a kitchen cannot operate, food safety temperatures are compromised, or a cold room or freezer room is warming and product loss is imminent.

What should we do while waiting for the technician?

Keep doors closed to retain temperature where possible. Move high-value stock to alternate cold storage if available. Note the temperature and any fault codes or alarm messages to help the technician at diagnosis.

Does emergency call-out cost more?

After-hours and emergency call-out rates may differ from standard business-hours service. The dispatch team will advise costs when you call, before attendance is confirmed.
