Refrigerated Freight FAQs
What temperature ranges can your reefer network maintain?
Our network of modern refrigerated trailers supports temperatures ranging from -20°F (deep frozen meats, ice cream, seafood) up to +70°F (fresh produce, chocolate, beverages, protect-from-freeze).
How do you vet cold chain carriers and verify reefer breakdown coverage?
Before assigning any refrigerated load, we verify active FMCSA operating authority, CSA safety scores, carrier identity, and active $1M Auto + $100K Cargo insurance including reefer breakdown coverage—with strict controls against unauthorized re-brokering.
How do you ensure temperature integrity and appointment compliance?
Trailers arrive pre-cooled and sanitized to your exact BOL temperature settings before loading. Shipment tracking and pulp/seal verification keep your team informed from origin dock to receiver.
What happens if a reefer unit alarms or a carrier cancels?
Our 24/7 operations team monitors cold chain shipments continuously. If a carrier falls off or a reefer unit triggers a mechanical alert, we coordinate refrigeration repair or a repower with a pre-cooled trailer and keep you updated.
