Reefer dispatch service
Reefer freight can pay better than dry van, but it comes with higher fuel, equipment and risk. A dispatcher who understands reefer loads helps you take the right ones.
What reefers haul
Fresh and frozen food, produce, dairy, meat, pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive freight. Each load has a required temperature and often strict pickup and delivery appointments.
Know the costs before you book
Your reefer unit burns fuel separately from the tractor, so compare rates on a per-mile basis after fuel and maintenance, not on the headline number alone. Our free rate calculator helps you check this.
Details worth confirming on every load
Set temperature, continuous or start-stop mode, pre-cool requirements, lumper fees and who pays them, and detention terms. Food loads can also be subject to FDA sanitary transportation requirements, so keep your trailer clean and your records current.
Protecting you from claims
We make sure temperature requirements are written on the rate confirmation so you aren't blamed for problems you didn't cause.
