This listing is for a used refrigerated truck — also known as a reefer trailer — offered from Portugal. Refrigerated trucks of this type are purpose-built for the temperature-controlled transport of perishable goods, including food, pharmaceuticals, and other cold-chain cargo. The unit combines a Schmitz Cargobull semi-trailer with a Carrier refrigeration system, two names that are well established in European freight and cold-chain logistics respectively.
The trailer is a Schmitz Cargobull SCB-S3B on a three-axle configuration and is fitted with a Carrier Vector 1950 refrigeration unit. The Vector 1950 is a multi-temperature capable engine, and this unit is specified as bi-temperature, meaning it can maintain two independent temperature zones within the trailer simultaneously — a practical feature for loads requiring different refrigeration conditions in the same journey. The refrigeration unit runs on both diesel and electric power, allowing it to operate from an external mains power supply when parked at a depot, reducing fuel consumption and noise during stationary operation.
The trailer is equipped with disc brakes, which offer more consistent and predictable stopping performance compared to drum brakes, particularly under the heavy loads typical of refrigerated semi-trailers. A pallet truck is included with the unit, facilitating the loading and unloading of palletised cargo without the need for external handling equipment.
The ATP certificate — the international agreement governing the transport of perishable foodstuffs — is valid until October 2028, confirming that the trailer's insulation and refrigeration performance have been tested and certified to the required standard. The unit is described as nationally registered in Portugal.
