Shaffer Trucking

We Know How To Stay Cool

Shaffer Trucking’s first job in 1937 was hauling chocolate across the country. Pretty important cargo for a refrigerated carrier to keep cold.

We must have done okay, because over 80 years later Shaffer Trucking is one of the largest transportation carriers of refrigerated goods in the country. We have more than 1,100 tractors and more than 2,800 refrigerator trailers covering national, regional, and local routes.

While we specialize in the transportation of goods that are cold, we can also transport tri-temp units that adjust to three different settings—cool, cold, and frozen.
