Refrigerated Road Freight
Road haulage in refrigerated trailers and rigid bodies. The trailer unit carries its own diesel engine, so cooling burns fuel over and above the tractor’s propulsion, and the small high-cycling system leaks at rates well above stationary refrigeration.
Also known as: Reefer Trucking, Temperature-Controlled Trucking
