How to Choose the Right Refrigerated Truck
When you need to transport something perishable or frozen, it’s important that you rent the right refrigerated truck. At Empire Rent A Car, we can help you find the right truck rental at the right price. We have two different refrigerated truck options: electric stand-by and vehicle powered. If you’re trying to decide which one is right for you, here are a few tips we give our customers throughout Brooklyn, Long Island, Queens, and the other NYC boroughs.
1. Consider what you need to transport.
Electric stand-by trucks are ideal if you need to store your items in the truck overnight. That way, you can plug in the refrigeration unit to a power outlet to keep it running even when the vehicle isn’t. However, if you plan on making a short trip with no major stops, then our vehicle-powered model may be best because it keeps everything cool as long as the truck is running.
2. Compare rates.
Is budget a big consideration? Be sure to get a rental quote for both of our trucks before making your final decision. That way, you can compare rates and decide what’s best.
3. Think about location.
When looking for a refrigerated truck rental, whether it be an electric stand-by or vehicle powered, consider how close the rental company is to your pick-up location. A closer location is more convenient and helps you cut down on your delivery time. At Empire, we have multiple locations throughout New York, including Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island, Floral Park, Long Island, and more. You can always find one of our locations near you.
