Therefore, full inspection of the trailer is of a great importance before any loading takes place. The full inspection should include the trailer, seals, doors, and temperature gauges.

Refrigerated Transportation Challenge No.4: Only Load pre-cooled products
If you want to stay away from troubles and at the same time to stay compliant with all the rules and regulations you will have to check whether the loads that you are loading are pre-cooled. Let me be more specific why you should load only pre-cooled products, first of all, reefer trucks are designed to keep the perishable food and products at the loading temperature.
With this in mind, you should always check the internal temperature of the products before you load it into the reefer. For example, if you load some product which is hot at the time of collection, then it will end up to the final destination hot as well.
