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 West Coast
The West Coast is the nation's produce powerhouse. California's Central Valley, Salinas Valley, and Washington's Yakima Valley generate enormous refrigerated freight volume. Produce season runs nearly year-round thanks to the mild climate, with peak rates during summer harvest. Reefer carriers in this region consistently command the highest per-mile rates in the country. Compliance with California Air Resources Board regulations is essential.
