Used Small Freezer Vans For Sale

The use of small freezer vans isn’t only limited to the food industry. Those in agriculture, pharmaceutical, medical, hospitality, and other sectors, also use such vans for a variety of purposes. Florists use them to keep their flowers fresh and healthy-looking while transporting them. They can also be used to safely transport medical supplies, or scientific material such as samples, and biological or chemical materials, without compromising their integrity.

Our small freezer vans are designed to deliver optimal, consistent, and stable cooling for long periods of time. This means these vehicles can be used to transport food and other perishables for long hauls, without incident.

Glacier Vehicles can deliver one or as many small freezer vehicles as you need, with sufficient storage space.

At Glacier Vehicles, all our freezer vehicles are modified to deliver optimal and stable cooling in various conditions. To ensure our clients can perform long distance cargo transportation without hassle and cost efficiently, the engines of all our small freezer vehicles are fuel efficient.

Our small freezer vans, such as our dry goods panel vans have an insulated cargo area that’s optimised for efficient temperature control, and ideal for food transportation. This is thanks to the following:

We deliver high performing freezer trucks by using not only high quality insulation material but also installing them in thicker layers of up to 75mm. This makes it possible to maintain temperatures between zero and -25 degrees centigrade. This is far more insulation than what you can expect to find in a standard fridge.

Styrofoam : Depending on your freezer van needs, we can install Styrofoam with density of up to 75mm thickness. This density of foam (PCF) pounds per cubic foot helps maximise retention of the cooling effect, and maintains freezing temperatures within the van.

Wood boarding : The wood used in this process is treated to prevent rot. This rot is typically caused by moisture from condensation seeping into the wood partitions. The wood treatment is carried out with food-safe anti-bacterial fungicide. This will keep sensitive cargo such as food, perishables and biological samples safe from contamination.

Fibreglass : Fibreglass is installed as interior sheeting for insulation purposes. This material is used for insulation because of its ability to minimise heat & cold transfer. The fibreglass also acts as a keying agent for the GRP resin which is applied in the following step.

GRP resin interior : The interior of the small freezer van will be finished with GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) resin with a wet lay roller. We deploy ‘wet lay’ because it has been proven to be more hygienic and effective in comparison to dry lay. Wet lay is quite similar to resin flooring, in that it makes the cargo area of the small freezer van 100% hygienic when dry, as well as easy to clean.

Our small freezer vans also feature a direct drive mechanism. This is the mechanism responsible for providing the power needed to run the cooling system of the van. It operates by making use of the van’s engine to directly power the freezer compartment of the van. The direct drive mechanism provides power for the freezer system’s refrigeration, evaporator, compressor, and condenser.

The small freezer van also features a static and movable partition wall in different parts. The partition wall that separates the cargo area from the driver cabin is designed in such a way that it ensures the freezing temperature of the cargo area doesn’t extend to the driver/passenger cabin.

Our small freezer vans feature a two temperature fan kit and a dual compartment insulated coolbox/cargo compartment that allows for heating and cooling to happen at the same time. Any of our freezer vans can attain and maintain temperatures of between 0 to -25 degrees celsius.

Within the cargo hold, what you will find is a securely lined interior surface of insulated panels which our engineers have equipped with light GRP sheeting. This delivers long term durability and safety in a small freezer van purchased from us. The interior also features load bearing floor panels that can be customised by our specialists to suit your particular business needs.

After installation of the freezer system, all our vehicles go through multipoint checks and comprehensive MOT testing, to guarantee the freezer vehicle is fully prepared for your rigorous transportation or logistics needs.

SWB is the distance between centre of the rear wheel and centre of the front wheel. A SWB vehicle has the shortest available base length. Vans with short or medium wheelbases, as is the case with most of our small freezer vans, are more compact and are far easier to manoeuvre on tight roads and through traffic. They are also more fuel efficient, but an obvious downside is that they offer less storage space than vans with longer wheelbases.

Please bear in mind that the length of a SWB will vary from model to model. For a free consultation on a small freezer vehicle with a wheelbase that satisfies your specifications and unique needs, please contact us on 0208 668 7579.
