Frequently Asked Questions
Our reefer trucks typically operate from -20°C to +10°C, depending on the unit. Chilled goods like fresh produce usually require 0‑4°C, while frozen items need -18°C or colder. Just specify your requirements and we'll match you with the right vehicle.
Yes, particularly for frozen or highly temperature‑sensitive goods. Some units cycle to conserve fuel while maintaining the set temperature. During extended stops, we use shore power (plug‑in electricity) where available.
We have backup systems and monitoring alerts in place. If any issue occurs, we act immediately — either through onboard backup systems or by transferring your load to another vehicle. We don't take chances with your products.
Use quality insulated packaging, ensure pallets are stable and properly wrapped to prevent air gaps, and clearly label temperature requirements. Pre‑cool your goods before we arrive — it reduces thermal shock. Good packaging prevents temperature loss every time the doors open.
Yes, deliveries to remote locations typically involve additional charges due to distance, road conditions, and limited infrastructure support. We'll always disclose these costs in your quote upfront — no hidden surprises.
We use digital sensors and data loggers with real‑time monitoring capability. You can request temperature alerts during transit, and we provide detailed temperature reports with every delivery.
