When your cold chain needs exceed what a van can carry, DegreeZero's refrigerated trucks deliver the capacity you need. Our 3-ton, 5-ton, and 7-ton reefer trucks handle large-scale distribution for supermarket chains, wholesale food distributors, and industrial catering operations across Dubai and the UAE.
Refrigerated Truck Fleet Overview
Our truck fleet ranges from 3-ton Mitsubishi Canters to 7-ton Hino reefer trucks. Each truck features walk-in cargo compartments, tail-lift loading, multi-temperature zone capability, and Carrier or Thermo King refrigeration units rated for sustained Gulf climate operation. Trucks are ideal for multi-drop supermarket deliveries, wholesale distribution, and event catering supply runs.
When to Choose a Truck Over a Van
If you're moving more than 1.5 tons of refrigerated cargo per trip, a refrigerated truck is more cost-effective than multiple van trips. Our 3-ton trucks hold approximately 12 pallets, the 5-ton holds 18 pallets, and the 7-ton reefer accommodates up to 24 pallets. For multi-stop routes serving 10+ locations, trucks with tail-lift make loading and unloading significantly faster.
Serving Dubai's Largest Distributors
Our refrigerated trucks support some of Dubai's largest food distributors, supermarket chains, and HORECA suppliers. We offer dedicated truck contracts with assigned drivers, scheduled daily routes, and real-time fleet management dashboards for operations managers who need visibility across multiple vehicles.
Truck Access, Permits and Timing Restrictions in Dubai
Heavy refrigerated vehicles in Dubai are subject to route and timing restrictions that vans are not. Trucks above a defined weight are barred from certain arteries during peak hours and are directed onto designated truck corridors such as Emirates Road and parts of Al Khail. Several commercial districts, Downtown and Marina in particular, restrict truck access to service road entrances and to overnight or early morning windows. We plan reefer truck schedules around those windows and confirm the receiving bay height and turning circle before dispatch, because a 7-ton reefer that cannot enter the bay is a wasted day for everyone.
Pallet Handling, Tail-Lifts and Bay Compatibility
The difference between a productive reefer day and an unproductive one is usually the unloading method. A 7-ton reefer carrying 22 pallets into a site without a dock leveller needs a hydraulic tail-lift and a pallet truck, and the tail-lift adds around two minutes per pallet movement. Sites with a proper dock unload the same vehicle in a fraction of the time. We ask about dock height, tail-lift need and whether roll cages or pallets are in use at the quotation stage, and specify the vehicle accordingly rather than sending a standard box body and hoping.
Multi-Temperature Bulkheads and Mixed Loads
The reason customers move from vans to reefer trucks is rarely pure volume; it is usually the need to carry frozen and chilled on the same run. A movable bulkhead splits a 7-ton body into a deep-freeze front section and a chilled rear, letting a supermarket replenishment run carry ice cream and fresh produce without two vehicles. The trade-offs are worth knowing before you book: the split is set at loading and cannot be rebalanced mid-route, the frozen side must be loaded first and opened least, and the bulkhead consumes around a pallet position of usable space. Where the frozen portion is under about a fifth of the load, a single-temperature chilled truck plus insulated frozen boxes is usually the cheaper answer; above that, the dual-zone body pays for itself in a single day.
