When it comes to refrigerated trucking, people have a very limited understanding of the same. They perceive that only food is transported through refrigerated trucking due to its perishable nature. However, this is only a myth and needs to be decoded. Refrigerated trucking deals in many types of cargo rather than only food items.
Apart from food, other items such as flowers, medicines, artwork and antiques are also carried through refrigerated trucking. Special types of trailers are used to move these items. Refrigerated trailers are often termed reefers which carry a wide array of items through the county on a daily basis. The interiors of these trailers are of climate control temperatures that range from 55 degrees to 22 degrees below zero.
