Frequently Asked Questions

How long can a refrigerated trailer run?

The operational duration of a refrigerated trailer without external power depends on a few key factors. These include the capacity of the refrigeration unit, the insulation of the trailer, and the desired temperature setting. Many refrigerated trailers are equipped with a self-contained power source, such as a diesel-powered refrigeration unit. These units can run for extended periods, ranging from several hours to days, depending on fuel capacity and efficiency. Some trailers may also have electric standby options for use when the trailer is parked and connected to external power.

Can you plug in a refrigerated trailer?

Yes, many refrigerated trailer models can be plugged into an external power source, especially when stationary. This is often referred to as “shore power” or “electric standby.” When plugged in, the refrigeration unit can draw power from the electrical grid instead of relying on its internal power source, which is typically a diesel engine. This helps to conserve fuel and reduces emissions, making it a more environmentally friendly option when the trailer is parked at a facility or distribution centre.

How much weight can a refrigerated trailer carry?

Specifications for fridge trailers, including the maximum payload, are typically as follows, but may vary across different models:

• Tare weight: 9,000 kg
• Maximum payload: 26,000 kg
• Width: 2.48m
• Height: 2.60m
