What to look for when buying a reefer trailer?TIPS TO SAVE YOU MONEY!

[@winstonsmith9067]

Thank you for the straight forward clear to the point info. I am getting my CDL and eventually I am thinking to run a 53' reefer to be most employable/marketable. I like videos that help tell me how to keep my money in my pocket and DIY when practical. Thanks. (consider aero for mpg, fuel is $) Thanks again.

[@coreysmith2196]

Thats crazy hadn't thought about that,that they will reject your trailer for e-tracks as if their products aren't wrapped in plastic and then placed in cardboard 🤔🤔🤔😏😏😏 Thanks for the video bud.

Looking to buy a reefer trailer soon. Wanting best bang for my buck how many unit hours is good? I don’t want to get something that is going to be going out soon

[@Jackknife-TV]

Hey I know this is an old video but what to expect for insurance wise for a new authority buying a older reefer trailer with about 20,000 hours on it.

[@lashan4636]

What was it

[@rippersix293]

Have you had bushing problems with your Meritor RHP series suspension on this trailer? I have four trailers identical to yours and have had to rebush all four and in two cases install sideplate repair kits. They are a good riding suspension, you just have to really keep an eye on all the bushings on that four-link style setup.

[@almandoscott2066]

So how much hours would be a good buy?

[@dr.apostler.a.warren2956]

[@adeeljohn3116]

is it ok to buy a reefer SB230 with 29k hours on it? it is running good and all maintenance is up to date

[@hectorfuentes996]

Thank you for the video it's a lots of help

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

I'm curious if you or someone else could answer this question for me? I know these reefer trailers are meant to keep the load cool or cold, but, do reefer units also have the ability to keep loads warm? Can you set them to a temperature and have the unit keep it roughly at that temperature? What is the temperature range that the load can be kept at? I can't seem to find this information and not sure if I'm just looking in the wrong places or what. Thank you.

[@harleybishop7658]

Mark Reaves unless you get a deep freeze unit they run -20 + 80 so less temperature control loads being warmer

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

@@harleybishop7658 So, if someone set it to 65 it would keep it roughly at 65 regardless of outside temperature?

[@harleybishop7658]

Mark Reaves yes

[@jimsrenaski7118]

How much weight is saved if you run super single tires and wheels vs. duals?

[@harrymonster1589]

excellent overall insight

[@Dezwrr]

Man I really appreciate you making this video. I do have a question, Can you plug in the reefer trailer to run independently by itself when docking Stead of using the diesel to power it?

[@edwardgryszkiewicz4541]

Thanks. Lot of information

[@hectorrojas2125]

What’s good hours to have?

[@dogman807]

Would go with a spread Axl.

[@drakeecrazy9002]

So should you get a trailer with E track or just regular n use load rods..

[@superfly4137]

i think its better to use load rods then test the market and if really needed then install the etracks.

[@jeremy143bezi]

Can you do how to operate, and different types of seating, what shipper want. etc

[@Speedfreak1984]

Sounds like a great idea for a video I'll have to go to my buddies house and do it on his because I sold my reefer about a month ago.thanks

[@thatguyonabicycleofconsurv3908]

Is it tough to get a dedicated route and if I have a dedicated route would I need my own trailer for whatever I was hauling and do dedicated routes pay well and what should I look out for

[@Speedfreak1984]

Dedicated routes are somewhat hard to get,as of right now with the rates going up it seems that the dedicated routes are paying less then the spot Market. Most of the time you'll have to have your own trailer maybe several if it's a drop and hook program.

[@pokerman9108]

dry van tips and tricks video maybe? thanks man

[@alexmarket123]

Thank you! Great video!

[@seinbmw1]

What is an e-track exactly please?

[@coreysmith2196]

E-tracks are a system that helps you secure the load more securely than load bars,since they are built into the trailer and you lock the straps into the walls and can cinch them tight and they won't move,vs a loadbar that will slip down if bumped right with the load.

[@alejandroacosta9521]

How do u get loads for reefers for produce companies n does it pay more than driving dry vans???

[@Speedfreak1984]

Reefer always pays more but you have more cost to keep up the equipment so I think it evens out.You will also have more risk and time with reefer loads.I use DAT load board to find loads.

[@markm0000]

When the season is hot Reefer pays very well. I’m getting into it soon and have a general idea of rates.

[@SouthEastStanger]

Can you hold companies liable when they damage parts of your trailer when loading and unloading?

[@markm0000]

If it’s serious damage yes. Otherwise cracks and scrapes not really unless you got a lot of money to burn on lawyer fees.

[@K.High1977]

We had a trailer that came to our distribution center with a written warning on the wall that said "This trailer is photographed daily for damages." I loaded it a few times and knew to be extra careful. It was an owner operator for Spinnaker Inc.
