WHICH ITEMS SHOULD BE SHIPPED IN A TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED TRUCK?
If perishable commodities are exposed to extremely high or low temperatures or humidity, they will degrade over time. Among other things, the following perishable commodities should be sent in a temperature-controlled setting.
- Plants and food
If sent without the correct refrigeration, the majority of vegetables and plants will wilt or ripen fast. The temperature of regular trailers may then be further elevated by ripening fruit, which may cause products to deteriorate more quickly than they would in chilled or frozen trailers.
- Animal By-Products
Animal products must be sent in a temperature-controlled environment, whether they are frozen or chilled. Work with your 3PL provider to establish the ideal temperature for products like meat, eggs, and dairy to be preserved for the longest possible time.
- Pharmaceuticals
For patients and healthcare providers to continue using many pharmaceutical products—vaccines, medications, etc.—they must be refrigerated or frozen at certain temperatures. Temperature change may be dangerous since it can make the item contents spoiled and unusable.
- Beautifying goods
Similar to medications, cosmetics can get spoiled if heated or chilled over acceptable levels.
