3 Things People Get Wrong About Dallas Reefer Carriers
From food distributors to laboratories, everybody thinks they know about the work Dallas reefer carriers do to transport time and temperature sensitive items around the Metroplex.
If we’re being honest, people don’t always get it right when it comes to Dallas refrigerated logistics.
We all have a lot to learn! Even though Dallas Courier has been around for over 40 years, we still find ourselves learning more about our clients and our industry. We believe it’s that kind of commitment to change for the better that’s allowed us to successfully serve our clients for decades. But even if we’re still growing as a business, we know a lot about the world of refrigerated transport. We love to share that knowledge with our clients like you so that you can make an informed and educated decision when it comes to your business’s cold chain logistics.
If we could set the record straight about Dallas Reefer Couriers, we’d start with these 3 concepts:
#1- Dallas Reefer Carriers Aren’t Limited to Dallas Fort Worth
Sure, our name is Dallas Courier, and we offer Dallas reefer services. But that doesn’t mean we hang out in the Metroplex. In fact, our refrigerated couriers can move anywhere in the continental United states. From out of town deliveries to out of state to cross-country, Dallas Courier sees your refrigerated goods from start to finish. We’ll ever hand off to a third party, and you’ll be able to track your delivery from start to finish with our newly remodeled smart phone app- Eagle Express
#2-Successful Reefer Carriers Have a Variety of Vehicles and Training
Reefer carriers need to be qualified to carry all kinds of cargo. From food to pharmaceuticals, couriers never know what kind of customer will head their way. Here at Dallas Courier, our reefer drivers are trained in federal Food Safety laws to handle the transportation of temperature sensitive foods. They’re trained in HIPAA and OSHA standards to move healthcare specimens. Dallas reefer carriers also need a variety of vehicles at their disposal.
Since many reefer loads are large, reefer carriers also need CDLs to operate large trucks. However, when there are smaller loads, a more economical refrigerated van will do the trick.
#3-Reefer Carriers Move More Than Just Food
Like we said before, reefer carriers need to be prepared to move all kinds of cargo. Most folks think about refrigerated transport, and they immediately think about food. This isn’t wrong! A lot of the refrigerated loads we carry contain temperature sensitive foods like restaurant supply deliveries and even catered meals. But to put our Dallas reefer carriers inside a box would be doing us a great injustice! In fact, our couriers move all kinds of temperature sensitive cargo. Consider these items that require refrigerated transportation:
· Artwork
· Cosmetics
· Furniture
· Paint
· Flowers
· Electronics
While food might be your first thought, it’s certainly not the only item our reefer carriers move.
