About Reefer Freight
Reefer (refrigerated) freight shipping uses temperature-controlled trailers to move perishable and temp-sensitive goods at a precise, continuously monitored setpoint — anywhere from frozen (-10°F) to cool (60°F). It's essential for produce, frozen food, dairy, pharmaceuticals, flowers, and chemicals that degrade outside a safe range. Reefer runs a 20–30% premium over dry van because the refrigeration unit burns fuel, carries less payload, and demands strict chain-of-custody. KeepShippin captures your required temperature range at quote time and dispatches carriers with validated, pre-cooled reefer units and temperature logging.
