Refrigerated trucking and reefer freight

Temperature-controlled freight is the kind where the paperwork matters as much as the miles. A reefer load that arrives on time but two degrees out of range is a rejected load. So the set point, the readings and the door events are recorded for the whole run, and the record goes to you with the proof of delivery rather than being something you have to ask for after a claim.

How a load runs

  1. 01

    Set point and tolerance up front

    We agree the temperature, the acceptable range and who to call if it moves — before the truck is loaded.

  2. 02

    Pre-cooled before loading

    The trailer is brought to temperature before the first pallet goes in, not after the doors close.

  3. 03

    Continuous logging

    Temperature and door events recorded through the run, so the cold chain is provable, not assumed.

  4. 04

    Delivered with the record

    The readings arrive with the POD, which is what a receiver needs to accept the load without argument.

Questions we get asked

Do you provide temperature records for every load?

Yes. The readings for the run are part of the delivery paperwork, not an extra service. That record is what protects both sides if a receiver questions the condition of the freight.

Can you handle protect-from-freeze in winter?

Yes. A reefer holds a floor temperature as readily as a ceiling one, which is why freight that is not frozen still moves on reefer equipment in cold months.

What happens if the unit fails in transit?

The driver and dispatch see the deviation as it happens, you are told immediately, and we move on a plan — nearest service, a swap, or a decision from you on the freight. What does not happen is you finding out at the dock.
