Types of Refrigerated Truck Rental
2°C to 8°C
Chilled reefer truck
For produce, dairy, fresh meat, bakery, chocolate, and flowers. Full details on our chiller truck rental page.
−18°C to −25°C
Frozen reefer truck

- Diesel, Salik and cargo insurance

- Temperature printout per trip
What raises or lowers it
- Temperature: frozen and two-zone use more power than chilled
- Hire length: monthly works out far cheaper per day than single runs
- Distance: Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and the east coast add drive time
- Extras: tail lift, more drops, night or pre-dawn slots
Tip from our dispatch team: if the same route runs every week, a contract beats single bookings on more than price. The same truck and driver learn your gates, bays, and receiving staff, so drops get quicker every week.

How We Protect the Temperature on Every Refrigerated Truck Rental
Before loading
The reefer unit runs until the box reaches your set point. The driver shows you the display reading before the first pallet goes in.
While loading
Pallets go straight from your cold room with gaps along the walls, so chilled air can flow right round the load.
On the road
A data logger records the box every few minutes. Drops are spaced so the unit can pull back down after each door opening.
After delivery
You receive the full temperature trace for your HACCP file, a Dubai Municipality check or an ADAFSA inspection
Refrigerated Truck Rental Across All 7 Emirates
Every refrigerated truck for rent is dispatched from Dubai, with trucks on the road around Dubai and Sharjah every day. For long inter-emirate runs, booking a day ahead lets us plan the driver's hours and the route.
