Frequently Asked Questions

What are Reefer vans used for? +

Whether you are moving produce, meat, plants, or other temperature sensitive cargo, having proper refrigeration is key to fulfilling business and consumer needs. 

Also known as refrigeration trailers, these units are designed to keep cargo at a specified temperature throughout the journey. 

Usually, products are carried in these units if they are “protect from freezing” or require that the temperature stability is controlled. 

Moving goods like perishables and Hazardous Materials without proper cooling abilities can mean loss of product and loss of revenue. 

ET’s reefer units are equipped with temperature sensors and control units that allow us to remotely monitor and control the operation and temperature of each trailer no matter where it is in North America. 

Along with our GPS units, we can guarantee that your product arrives where it needs to be, when it needs to be there and in the condition promised to the customer.

Do you “multi-temp” reefer trailers? +

No, we do not have multi-temp reefers.  These reefers are equipped with multiple “zones” for different commodities being shipped on the same trailer.

Do you haul frozen LTL -18C? +

Yes, we can haul from one skid to a full load of frozen cargo.

Do you have reefer straight trucks? +

No, all of our units are 53′ temperature controlled. We find that “straight” reefers do not retain temperatures as effectively as our 53′ trailers.

What is a space-saver reefer? +

Yes, the space saver reefer interior width dimension 101.5 

Interior height is 109 — These trailers do not have the air return chute – making loading and unloading a breeze!

Does ET TRANSPORT rent reefers? +

No, we do not rent out our reefers.

Do you have “logistics posts” in the reefers? +

Yes, we have 1 horizontal logistics post going across the middle of each side. Also 2 more logistics posts of about 10 ft from the front and back of the trailer, going horizontal one above and one below the middle long one.
