Which goods require refrigerated containers?

How much does refrigerated cargo cost?
Prices depend heavily on what needs to be transported and where. Direct shipments always involve higher costs than regular refrigerated shipping, as they transport your goods non-stop and without transshipment directly to the recipient. For international shipments, the costs for customs clearance can also be included in the quote upon request. Particularly valuable freight should always be insured additionally.
Book direct transport for your reefer containers
Direct delivery is the most efficient and fastest transport mode for transporting perishable products from/to neighbouring countries. However, they also involve higher costs, as they transport your perishable cargo non-stop and without transhipment directly to the recipient. Book a truck transport for your perishable commodities with one of our reliable shipping partners without hassle to any destination in the world.
What information do I need to have ready when booking a refrigerated transport?
The request must contain precise details of the contents, dimensions, and weight, the pick-up address, the planned pick-up time, and the delivery address. Please always indicate whether it is a temperature-controlled or dry ice transport and what temperature must be maintained during transportation in order to comply with regulations. For refrigerated transport, the carrier will bring the freight documents with them upon pickup.
We look forward to hear from you.
