    I pulled a power only reefer out of cali to a jobsite in Az. It was loaded with of all things PIPE. From what the contractor told me, it had some sort of coating inside it that had a chemical reaction and coated the insides once it reached room temp. They had to keep it in the reefer until they were ready to add a joint.

    Did anybody bother to look at their web site? The company name is right on the side of the trailer below the Mayflower logo.

    Very specialized stuff.

    My best and oldest friend owns a Mayflower agency in NorCal and they do tons of specialized freight. I sometimes will sub contract a reefer load when he needs it. They always pay top dollar.
     
    Coffey Thanks this.
