Frozen−18 °C and below

Frozen food and ice cream, frozen meat and fish, and samples that have to stay solid all the way.

What we carry

Anything that has to stay cold.

If it spoils, thaws or loses its effect outside its range, we move it. Tell us the temperature on the label and that is the temperature it arrives at.

How it works

The cold chain doesn't break on our watch.

FrostHaul refrigerated van with rear doors open, insulated boxes strapped inside Driver checking a probe thermometer reading 3.8 °C inside the refrigerated cargo area
Step 01Pre-cooling the cargo area
+4.2°
01

Pre-cooled before we arrive

The cargo area is brought down to your temperature before we set off for collection. Your goods never go into a warm van.

02

Loaded fast, doors closed

Checked at collection, strapped in and sealed. The less time the doors are open, the less the temperature moves.

03

Watched the whole journey

The temperature is monitored from pickup to drop, not just checked once at the start. If anything drifts, we know straight away.

04

Handed over at temperature

Delivered to the right person with the reading at drop-off. Temperature records for your delivery are available on request.
