    I would say that depends on where you live and the areas you want to run. My understanding is only select agents deal with reefer freight. Once leased on agents will be able to see you and your reefer in the system and will probably be ringing your phone. If I already pulled reefer and had one, I would certainly start out with it and see how it goes. You can always switch anytime you want with LS. They will make you take the securement class if you don't have flat/step experience

    Oh yes, as long as the shipper will load a reefer. Agents might have to make a call to the shipper to get the ok.

    That wouldn't be that bad then, where I'm leased to now that's what we do, dry out reefer back.
