Climate-Controlled Truck Loads
The typical reefer trailer is either 48’ or 53’ long and insulated. Its temperature-control unit will accommodate frozen, chilled, or even warm temperatures ranging from -20°F to +90°F. That means a refrigerated truck can carry a load consisting of any perishable goods such as foods, beverages, medical supplies, or a product that needs to be kept at higher-than-average temperatures in a cold climate. Specific examples of climate-controlled truck loads that our Portland refrigerated freight brokerage can help with include:
- Meat
- Frozen foods
- Pharmaceuticals
- Seafood
- Dairy
- Fresh fruit and vegetables
If you have any load which requires a temperature-controlled environment get in touch with our Portland reefer trucking team today.

Reefer Trucking FAQ
What is refrigerated or climate-controlled trucking?
Refrigerated or “Reefer” Trucking refers to the type of trailer used to deliver temperature-sensitive goods. Refrigerated trailers have a cooling unit which is usually powered by a small diesel engine.
What does reefer mean in trucking?
“Reefer” refers to a refrigerated trailer or truck/trailer combination.
How are refrigerated trucks powered?
They are normally powered by a separate diesel engine connected directly to the trailer. That means the temperature control depends on this unit and not on the truck. The truck can be disconnected from the trailer and the low temperatures maintained as required.
