Services · Temperature-controlled

Cold chain integrity from dock to dock. No exceptions.

A temperature excursion does not just damage freight — it creates a liability chain that runs from the shipper to the receiver to the end consumer, and the carrier in the middle either prevents that or causes it. Our 150 company-owned reefers protect the cold chain at every point it could quietly break.

We run continuous temperature logging — not periodic checks or driver-reported readings, but automated data recorded every few minutes from pickup to proof of delivery. If your receiver asks for a temp log at the dock, we hand it over on the spot. Our drivers are trained in CFIA and FDA cold-chain protocols: they know pre-cool from cycle-sentry mode, they know when to reject a load at origin, and they know a reefer washout between loads is standard, not optional.

Refrigerated Trucking — Alpha Trans cross-border trucking

Temperature-controlled

What you get

  • Multi-temp capability. Frozen, chilled, and ambient (−20 °F to 70 °F) on the same fleet, with multi-temp bulkheads for mixed loads and air-ride suspension for sensitive freight on 53-ft tandem-axle trailers.
  • Continuous monitoring. Temperature logged automatically every few minutes from pickup to delivery, with real-time alerts to dispatch if any unit drifts off setpoint — and a full printout available at delivery.

Capabilities

How our refrigerated trucking works for you

CFIA & FDA compliant

Reefer washouts between loads are standard, drivers are trained in food-safety handling, and our documentation holds up to any auditor or receiver.

Cross-border cold chain

CT-PAT and FAST priority keeps reefer loads moving through the crossing, so the cold chain is not put at risk by an avoidable border delay.

Frequently asked questions

What temperature range do your reefers handle?

Our 150 multi-temp 53-ft reefers run from −20 °F to 70 °F (−29 °C to 21 °C), covering frozen, chilled, and ambient freight. Multi-temp bulkheads let us carry mixed-temperature loads on a single trailer.

How is the temperature documented?

Continuous, automated logging records temperature every few minutes from pickup to proof of delivery — not periodic spot checks. A full temp printout is available at delivery, and dispatch is alerted in real time if any unit drifts off setpoint.

Are you compliant with food-safety regulations?

Yes. We are CFIA (Canada) and FDA (US) compliant, our drivers are trained in cold-chain protocols, and reefer washouts between loads are standard practice — which also satisfies FSMA requirements to document previous cargoes and cleaning.

What kinds of freight do you haul in reefers?

Fresh produce and dairy, deep-frozen foods, pharmaceuticals and biologics, meat and protein, and beverages and confections. If it needs to stay cold across the Canada–US border, we have moved it.

What happens if the reefer drifts off setpoint in transit?

Dispatch is alerted automatically, calls the driver to diagnose the issue, and — if necessary — re-routes the truck to a service facility before the product is compromised. The goal is to catch a problem before it becomes a rejected load.
