Dry Van and Reefer Freight in Rhode Island

Two trailer types cover most Rhode Island truckload freight. Tell us what you ship and we'll match the equipment.

Dry Van Truckload

For freight that doesn't need temperature control. 53-foot dry vans haul Rhode Island retail, consumer, packaged and industrial freight, palletized or floor loaded.

Reefer Truckload

Refrigerated trailers for food, produce, beverages and other temperature-controlled freight. We confirm the set point and any pre-cool or continuous-run needs before the load is covered.
