Frozen beverages?

When i was a beer hauler years ago, we had to do the same thing, just idle the truck, the vibration from idleing is what will keep the beer or soda from freezing, i had no problems at all.

 

Ahh driver, all these guys are lyin' to you. Yes, it is true that you have to keep the beverages moving. But just idling the truck is not going to do it. What you are going to have to do, is to climb into that truck and start shaking those cans and/or bottles. And you are going to have to move quickly because by the time you get to the front of the trailer, the ones in back will have started to freeze again.

GET GOING NOW!



(just in case you are new to my posts, this is done in fun, only)

 

Got to mark them so you know which ones you have done!

 

You are at home , pull the blender out! Put little salt on the rim.

 

Too cold for frozen drinks right now.... but check back with me in July when it's 100 degrees! You'll find me floating in the pool with a frozen beverage...

 

You will need to post pics then .

 

Late to this thread, but I am on a load in Burnsville, MN heading to WI. Temps supposed to get into -1 to -5 range overnight. Only going to be sitting for about 6-8hrs. Picking up around 1300 and delivering the next morning 0400-0600 with a dry van. Will idling be enough to keep the beverages from bursting?

 

Don’t have an answer for you sir, but this thread is 13 years quiet, may have better luck with a newer one

 

You’ll be fine.
I’ve had beverage loads in my trailer for 3-4 days in subzero temps and never had a problem. Closest I came to losing a load was sweet tea that started to turn to slush. Was in my trailer with-20 temps for 4 days. Got delayed due to road closures.

 

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you were able to keep that sweet tea load from freezing. You just idled your truck for those couple of days?
