Reefer Trailer
A standard reefer trailer typically comes in 48-foot or 53-foot lengths and is fully insulated with a front-mounted refrigeration unit to keep freight at a controlled temperature throughout transit. These trailers are the backbone of cold-chain logistics, ideal for hauling perishable goods like produce, meat, dairy, and pharmaceuticals while maintaining strict temperature consistency from pickup to delivery.
Multi-Temperature Refrigerated Trailers
A multi-temperature refrigerated trailer is a reefer trailer divided into separate zones, each with its own independently controlled temperature.
Cargo Van
Insulated cargo vans are smaller, temperature-controlled delivery vehicles designed for short-haul or last-mile transport of perishable goods. They use insulated wall panels and compact refrigeration units to maintain chilled or frozen conditions, making them ideal for grocery deliveries, meal services, medical supplies, and any shipment that requires reliable cold-chain protection without needing a full-size reefer trailer.
