About Reefer Trucking
Refrigerated trailers transport temperature-sensitive freight including produce, frozen foods, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. Reefer carriers earn premium rates due to equipment costs and strict cold chain compliance.
Reefer Market in the Northeast
Temperature-controlled freight in the Northeast revolves around the massive foodservice industry feeding cities from Boston to Washington DC. Hunts Point Market in the Bronx alone processes 4.5 billion pounds of produce annually. Seasonal demand spikes hard during holidays, and winter weather creates premium surge rates. Reefer carriers who can handle tight urban deliveries and maintain cold chain compliance earn top dollar in this corridor.
