Available Refrigerated Straight Truck Types

On the COOP platform, common variations of Refrigerated Straight Trucks listed for rent in St. Louis, MO include:

Multiple Temperature Zone

Some straight refrigerated trucks include refrigeration units with the capability to program various temperature zones in their cargo sections. These can be a wonderful alternative for companies with a single load of items that need to be kept at a specific temperature or a day full of deliveries that each require a different temperature.

Metallic Floor

Straight trucks with refrigerated interiors and metallic floors can save money. This is because metal is a stronger conductor than wood, requiring less energy from the refrigeration system. The disadvantage of metallic flooring is that it is more stiff than wood and does not offer much shock absorption or airflow. They are therefore a fantastic option for cargo like frozen goods or medical supplies.

Wooden Floor

To allow for air circulation, which is necessary for cargo like fresh fruit or flowers, wooden floor reefer trucks are used. Additionally, they offer superior cargo shock absorption. The drawback of having wooden flooring is that it will eventually need to be replaced because they absorb moisture while metal floors do not.

Refrigerated Straight Truck Uses

The commercial fleet vehicles rented on COOP can be used for any of your business needs. Here are some examples of the types of uses for Refrigerated Straight Trucks rented on COOP.

Medical Equipment

When being transported, medical equipment should be handled with considerable caution as it can be incredibly fragile. Others must be kept, even throughout transportation, within a very narrow temperature range until they are utilized. The best option for delivering medical equipment that must be delivered at a specified temperature is to use refrigerated straight trucks.

Flower Transportation

Flowers can wilt and lose all of their beauty in hot weather. If you operate a flower delivery service, you can perform all required deliveries using the desired brand and size of a rental refrigerated straight truck.

Produce Delivery

You want to make sure the produce stays fresh when you transport it to St. Louis restaurants, farmer's markets, or grocery shops. Rentals for refrigerated straight trucks are useful in this situation. Make sure the one you rent has wooden floors so there is more airflow.
