FAQ

Shipping frozen and refrigerated items, answered

What food, pharmaceutical and logistics businesses ask us before shipping cold goods.
Ask us directly
or call +1 (646) 722-0968

What types of businesses can benefit from frozen and refrigerated shipping services?

+
Businesses in the food, pharmaceutical and logistics sectors benefit most. Any business that handles perishable or temperature-sensitive goods can use our cold chain solutions. Typical users are food exporters moving seafood, meat and dairy, pharmaceutical shippers of vaccines and medications, and logistics operators with recurring refrigerated loads.

How does refrigerated shipping work for frozen goods?

+
Refrigerated shipping uses reefer containers or cold shipping boxes to maintain a controlled temperature throughout the journey, so frozen goods remain stable from pickup to delivery. The unit maintains temperature rather than cooling warm cargo, so product is loaded already at the setpoint, in a pre-cooled container powered by the vessel or terminal.

What is the best way to ship frozen food for my business?

+
Use insulated packaging and refrigerated containers that keep the goods frozen during transit. Choosing a reliable reefer freight company is key to maintaining product quality. Frozen food must stay at 0 F (-18 C) or colder, so size the coolant for the full transit time plus a buffer for delays.

Can Interwf handle international refrigerated shipping for frozen products?

+
Yes. Interwf specializes in international refrigerated shipping, with reefer container shipping and refrigerated cargo ships for global delivery of frozen products. Destination rules vary: meat, seafood and dairy usually need an export health certificate, and food shipped into the U.S. needs FDA Prior Notice, with customs clearance handled at destination.

What are the packaging options for shipping temperature-sensitive items?

+
Insulated boxes, cold shipping packages and thermal packaging for sensitive products. Dry ice is UN1845, Class 9 under IATA rules for air shipments, and its packaging must vent the carbon dioxide gas rather than seal it.

Do you offer stock consolidation for businesses with regular cold shipments?

+
Yes. Our stock consolidation services help businesses optimize their shipments and reduce costs by consolidating products in reefer shipments. Consolidation works for products that share the same temperature setpoint, and the Miami operation offers refrigerated and frozen storage for staging cargo before loading.

What industries rely heavily on refrigerated LTL freight shipping?

+
Food production, pharmaceuticals and logistics rely on refrigerated LTL freight shipping to transport perishable goods safely. Refrigerated LTL carriers price by pallet count, weight and distance, and shipments sharing a trailer must be compatible with its temperature setpoint.

What is the price of using a refrigerated shipping container?

+
It depends on container size, distance and the type of goods being shipped. Request a customized reefer freight quote and Dani replies within one business day. A written quote itemizes the freight, pickup, customs clearance and any insurance, and a reefer is priced above a dry container because of its refrigeration unit and the power it uses.
