Refrigerated freight shipping uses temperature-controlled equipment for cargo with specific transit conditions. The correct plan depends on the product, required temperature, packaging, loading condition and customer instructions. 166 Logistics America reviews refrigerated transportation requests across the contiguous United States and asks shippers to define these requirements before booking.
State the commodity and required temperature or permitted range, including the measurement units. Explain whether a particular operating mode, monitoring record or handling procedure is required. Product and trailer conditions at loading should follow the shipper's documented instructions. Do not assume that a transport refrigeration unit can bring a warm product to its required shipping temperature during the trip.
Share the pallet count, total weight, packaging and any airflow or segregation requirements. Appointment windows, inspection procedures, loading delays and multiple deliveries can affect the transportation plan. Let the team know if the cargo has product-specific facility, sanitation or documentation requirements. Suitability and available equipment must be confirmed for the particular shipment.
Send the pickup and delivery ZIP codes, shipping date, commodity details and complete temperature instructions. Include the relevant contacts at both locations and explain how changes will be communicated. Our refrigerated shipping checklist provides a practical starting point. If the product does not require active temperature control, compare dry van transportation before requesting the appropriate equipment.

Provide the commodity, temperature requirement and units, packaging, weight, pallet count, lane, pickup date and appointment windows. Include any operating-mode or recordkeeping instructions.
Do not assume so. Product condition at loading and trailer preparation must follow the shipper's instructions. Discuss the complete requirement before booking.
No. Product-specific equipment, sanitation, security and handling requirements must be reviewed before a shipment is accepted.
