Your shipment needs to stay cold but your carrier can't handle it?
Refrigerated transport solutions for New Jersey businesses from Gateway Logistics.
Your products need temperature control but your usual trucking company doesn't have refrigerated trucks. You're worried about spoilage, product loss, or damage during transport. New Jersey's hot summers and unpredictable weather make this even more critical for perishables and temperature-sensitive goods.
Temperature-controlled shipping requires specialized refrigerated trucks (reefers) with precise climate monitoring. Regular carriers don't invest in this equipment because it costs more to buy, maintain, and operate. Your products could spoil, lose potency, or become unusable without proper cold chain handling.
Refrigerated transport typically costs 20-40% more than standard freight, depending on distance and temperature requirements. Pharmaceutical shipments need stricter controls than produce. Multi-stop routes cost more because the door opens frequently. Emergency or rush deliveries increase pricing significantly.
Contact a logistics company that specializes in temperature-controlled freight. Ask about their reefer fleet, backup systems, and real-time temperature monitoring. Verify they have experience with your product type. Gateway Logistics maintains relationships with certified refrigerated carriers throughout New Jersey and can match you with the right equipment for your shipment.
Your products arrive at the correct temperature, maintaining quality and value. You'll have tracking data and temperature logs for your records. No more worrying about spoilage or explaining damaged goods to customers.
