About Reefer Truck Bodies

Matching a standalone reefer truck body equipped with a refrigeration unit to the appropriate light-, medium-, or heavy-duty truck or van chassis lets you transport cargo that must be maintained at specific temperatures.

You’ll find reefer truck bodies available in lengths from 12 to 30 feet (3.7 to 9.1 meters) or longer, as well as models sold with and models without a built-in refrigeration unit.

Features, Access & More

Reefer truck bodies often include a number of application-specific construction materials and related features, such as fiberglass, foam, thermal lining, sealed doors, and corrosion-resistant and watertight flooring. These items and others make it easier to maintain a specific interior temperature, which helps make operating a reefer truck as efficient and cost-effective as possible. To access refrigerated cargo, some bodies provide walk-in access via roll-up, swing, tri-fold, rear, or side doors, while others are equipped with individual compartments located along their sides to provide convenient reach-in access. These compartments, which may offer individual temperature control, are particularly handy for operators who make regular stops along a delivery route. Many reefer truck bodies also include a lift-end gate or pull-out ramp for easier loading and unloading plus shelves and tie-down systems to better organize and secure goods during transport.

A reefer body’s refrigeration unit may be powered by the vehicle or run on its own electrical system. An increasing number of reefer bodies are equipped with highly efficient refrigeration units that are augmented by solar power or that have battery backup so that they can be run during extended stops without requiring drivers to run the truck’s engine.
