Refrigerated & Freezer
Trailer Rentals

Yes. We provide shelving in all our refrigeration and freezer trailers. However, if you want to organize the storage space in a way in which you don’t need the shelves, we can easily remove them upon request.

The temperature range of a reefer trailer, or refrigerated trailer, can vary depending on the specific model and manufacturer. However, most reefer trailers are designed to maintain temperatures within a range of approximately -20°C (-4°F) to 20°C (68°F).

These temperature ranges cover a wide range of cargo requirements, allowing the transportation of various perishable goods, such as frozen foods, fresh produce, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive products.

The fuel consumption of a reefer (refrigerated trailer) is typically measured in gallons per hour (GPH), as it is a common unit of measurement in the industry. The average fuel consumption of a reefer unit, which is approximately 0.5 to 1.5 gallons per hour, would be equivalent to approximately 1.9 to 5.7 liters per hour.

Please note that these figures are approximate, and actual fuel consumption can vary based on various factors.

Yes, typically, reefer trailers offer the flexibility to customize the temperature settings to suit the specific requirements of your cargo. Reefer trailers are equipped with temperature control systems that allow you to set and adjust the desired temperature within the designated temperature range.

Depending on the model and features of the reefer trailer, temperature control can be managed through digital control panels, interfaces, or other control mechanisms. These systems enable you to select the precise temperature needed to maintain the integrity and freshness of your cargo.

When booking the reefer trailer, it is important to communicate your specific temperature requirements. This ensures that the rental unit provided meets your cargo’s temperature needs and that you have the necessary control and adjustment capabilities during the rental period.

A reefer trailer is a specialized trailer that works similar to a common fridge. This is how it works:

A compressor, which functions like a miniature engine, is within the reefer trailer. By compressing a specific gas known as refrigerant, it creates a chilly liquid. Heat is produced as a result of this process.

Next, the condenser receives the chilled liquid refrigerant. Using the surrounding air as a heat exchanger, the condenser lowers the temperature of the liquid refrigerant. This is comparable to how the radiator on a car cools the engine.

After cooling, the liquid refrigerant is put under greater pressure before passing through a tiny valve and into the evaporator.

The liquid refrigerant rapidly expands and turns back into a gas inside the evaporator. By absorbing heat from the interior air of the truck during the expansion process, a cooling effect is produced. It functions similarly to how water evaporates to cool your skin.

The items kept inside the reefer trailer are then exposed to the cool air created by the evaporator, preserving the proper temperature. The trailer’s coolness is more evenly distributed thanks to the air circulation.

After absorbing heat, the refrigerant gas returns to the compressor to restart the cycle. The temperature inside the trailer is kept constant by this ongoing cycle of heat absorption, expansion, cooling, and compression.

All of this is powered by the trucks diesel engine.
