Five Practical Tips for Hiring a Refrigerated Truck
- Assess cargo temperature needs: Know whether your product requires chilled (2–8°C), frozen (-18°C) or deep-freeze conditions and communicate this precisely.
- Plan for loading and unloading: Ensure access to appropriate loading docks or tail lift arrangements to avoid delays and reduce handling time.
- Check maintenance and calibration records: Request recent service records and calibration certificates for temperature control equipment.
- Request monitoring and proof-of-delivery: For sensitive shipments insist on temperature logs and POD to validate compliance during audits.
- Understand liability and insurance: Clarify who is responsible for goods during transit and confirm the insurance coverage limits and exclusions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I rent a refrigerated truck instead of buying one?
Renting avoids large capital expenditure, ongoing maintenance, storage hassles and idle asset costs. Rentals provide flexibility to scale capacity according to demand and access to newer vehicles and technology without long-term commitments.
Can I rent a refrigerated truck with or without a driver?
Yes. We offer both options. Renting with a driver is ideal for businesses without certified drivers or for routes requiring local knowledge. Renting without a driver suits clients who have trained personnel and prefer to manage their own logistics.
How do you ensure temperature stability during transport?
Vehicles use insulated bodies and reliable refrigeration units. For critical shipments we provide temperature logging and alarms. Regular maintenance and pre-departure checks reduce the risk of temperature deviations.
What documentation do you provide for compliance?
We provide proof of delivery (POD), temperature logs on request, vehicle maintenance records and certificates if required for audits or regulatory compliance.
Can you handle time-sensitive overnight deliveries?
Yes. We operate 24/7 and can schedule overnight or early-morning pickups and deliveries to meet tight timelines and reduce exposure to daytime temperatures.
