Refrigerated trailers, also known as reefer trailers, are used to transport perishable or temperature-sensitive goods. Available in single or multiple-zone models, these trailers are useful for a wide variety of different types of cargo. If your cargo needs to be kept at a specific temperature or within a specific range, download the COOP app today to find the right refrigerated trailer for your Bridgeport business.
Front Fixed
The most common type of reefer unit, front fixed refrigerated trailers take their name from a single temperature control unit placed at the front of the trailer. Typically these types of refrigerated trailers will have their own power supply separate from the vehicle itself.
Multiple Temperature Zone
Multiple temperature zone refrigerated units are named due to their unique ability to set separate and different temperature zones within the same refrigerated reefer unit. This makes these units a great option for multiple daily deliveries of frozen and fresh food or various flowers that need to be kept at different temperatures.
Wooden Floor
Wood flooring provides greater air circulation and shock absorption than the metallic-floored option in refrigerated trailers. However, the moisture retention over time can also cause them to spoil and need to be replaced. Additionally, because they are less rigid, the wooden floors typically provide a more gentle and cushioned ride for their cargo than metallic floors do.
Metallic Floor
Metallic floors in reefers provide less air circulation than wooden floors, but they also provide cost savings due to their ability to remain at the same temperature with less energy used once cooled. Great for frozen or cooled products that don’t need air circulation, the metallic floor reefers are also more durable than wooden floors.
Fruehauf
The Fruehauf Trailer Corporation has revolutionized the trailer industry over the years with its many different and unique innovations that have helped drive the industry forward. As their founder, August Fruehauf, invented and manufactured the first semi-trailer in 1918 it makes sense that Fruehauf refrigerated trailers would be at the top of the class. Fruehauf was acquired by Wabash National in 1997 and is using knowledge from two of the best trailer companies in the US to build amazing reefer trailers.

Medical Equipment
Medical equipment is highly specific and tightly regulated. Many different types of medical equipment need to stay within a specific temperature range and must be disposed of if it ever falls outside of that range. This makes refrigerated trailers the right choice for your business if you need to deliver medical products in Bridgeport.
Produce Delivery
Whether frozen or fresh, many different types of food need to be kept within a specific temperature range to prevent spoilage. Your business may be taking food from farm to market, to a processing facility, or the grocery store, but if it's fresh it typically needs to be temperature-controlled.
Flower Delivery
Flowers are known for their beauty and use as decorations for special occasions or gifts. Their beauty needs to be maintained during shipment, which means making sure they stay within a certain temperature range. If your Bridgeport business delivers flowers, download the COOP app today to find the right reefer trailer for you!
Personal Care Products
No matter where they are made or what they are used for, many different types of personal care products can be destroyed if they get too hot during transit. It is important to make sure that your cargo of lipstick or moisturizer doesn’t arrive at its final destination melted or denatured. If your Bridgeport business delivers personal care products, a reefer trailer rented through the COOP app could give you peace of mind in knowing those products arrive at their final destination in good shape.
Many food delivery companies in Bridgeport use refrigerated trailers to safely deliver their perishable and fresh foods. Whether your deliveries are going out of state, around the state, or simply to restaurants in town, a reefer trailer can help ensure that your food deliveries arrive in good condition. The COOP platforms are a reliable and affordable way to find a refrigerated trailer for your company in Bridgeport to use to get your food deliveries moving!
What type of reefer trailer is best for a medical delivery business?
Since there are many different medical products that have different temperature requirements, a multiple zone refrigerated trailer is likely your best option. Since medical deliveries don’t need air circulation and need to stay at a specific temperature, a metallic floor is also best for your business needs.
