Available Refrigerated Straight Truck Types

On the COOP platform, common variations of Refrigerated Straight Trucks listed for rent in Baltimore, MD include:

Multiple Temperature Zone

Some refrigerated straight trucks are outfitted with refrigeration units that include the technology to set multiple different temperature zones within their cargo areas. These can be a great option for businesses that may have a single load of goods with different temperature requirements, or a day full of different deliveries that need their own temperatures.

Metallic Floor

Refrigerated straight trucks with metallic floors can provide benefits in the way of cost savings. This is because they require less energy from the refrigeration system since metal is a better conductor than wood. On the downside, metallic floors are more rigid than wood floors and do not provide much shock absorption, nor do they allow much air circulation. This makes them a great choice for cargo such as medical supplies or frozen foods.

Wooden Floor

Wooden floors have some benefits over metallic floor refrigerated straight trucks. Namely, the spaced floor provides for air circulation, which is needed for cargo such as fresh produce or flowers. They also provide better shock absorption for cargo. On the downside, wooden floors retain moisture that metallic floors do not, and will need to be replaced over time.
