The beverage manufacturing industry is a fast-paced field, requiring efficiency and accuracy to ensure that your products reach consumers in optimal condition. From temperature-sensitive juices and dairy products to fragile glass bottles, the challenges of beverage transportation are unique and require specialized solutions. For businesses looking to optimize operations, rental trucks offer a flexible, cost-effective and reliable option. Here’s how your beverage business can benefit from leveraging commercial truck rental.


Tailored Solutions for Every Beverage Type

Beverage transportation requires careful attention to packaging, handling and temperature control. With truck rental, you can choose the type of vehicle you want based on your specific needs.

  • Temperature-Controlled Refrigerated Trucks: Refrigerated units keep perishable beverages, such as milk, juice and certain alcoholic drinks, at ideal temperatures, ensuring products maintain quality from the warehouse to the store shelf.
  • E-Track and Cargo Tie Rails: Securing the load is essential to preventing breakage when transporting beverages in glass bottles. Trucks equipped with E-track or cargo tie rails provide a flexible system for safely securing pallets and containers, reducing the risk of shifting during transit. This added stability ensures that fragile items arrive at their destination intact and undamaged.

Flexibility To Meet Seasonal Demand

Demand can fluctuate with seasons, holidays, and other events, like the Super Bowl. Commercial truck rental allows you to scale your fleet up or down based on current demand without the long-term commitment of owning additional vehicles. Our 26 ft. box truck is the perfect choice for seasonal surges. With ample space, a cargo capacity of up to 10,000 lbs., and a liftgate/ramp to make moving heavy or bulky beverages in and out of the truck that much easier, it’s the smart option. Have a CDL? You’ll be able to haul even more – up to 17,000 lbs. – with our 26 ft. box truck – CDL.

Keep Beverages Fresh

For businesses moving temperature-sensitive beverages like dairy, juice, alcohol, etc., the 26 ft. refrigerated box truck is an ideal solution. With the room to handle approximately 12 standard pallets or 24 double-stacked pallets, it’s perfect for both seasonal surges and everyday deliveries. Reefer units maintain precise temperature control, ensuring products stay fresh and retain quality throughout the journey. And with a payload capacity of up to 8,000 lbs. with our non-CDL models or 15,000 lbs. with our CDL models, these trucks allow for the hauling of bigger loads. Designed for both short and long hauls, the 26 ft. reefer will keep your cargo safe and at the right temperature.

Seamless Supply Chain Management

An effective supply chain means timely deliveries to maintain stock levels and meet customer demand. Our 53-ft. dry van and refrigerated trailers offer cargo protection and precise temperature control while on the road. These trailers can carry approximately 26 single-stacked pallets of beverages per trailer and double that if moving stackable pallets, so you never run out of room.

Also need the power to pull these trailers? The single-axle day cab can handle a 65,000 lb. gross combined weight, while the tandem-axle day cab has an 80,000 lb. gross combined weight capacity. Both heavy-duty tractors prioritize comfort with driver air-ride seating while ensuring you can handle heavier loads easily and reliably.

Timely Deliveries

Every driver knows the importance of timely deliveries in maintaining product freshness. Using a reliable rental truck, like the 16 ft. box truck, can optimize the transportation of products, like freshly brewed beer or bottled wine, from one location to the next. With a versatile 800 cu. ft. of loading space, this truck allows you to carry up to 250 medium-sized boxes or approximately 16 pallets efficiently.

In an industry where the stakes are high and operations can be complex, having the right transportation solutions is important. Truck rental provides your beverage manufacturing business with the flexibility, reliability and cost-effectiveness needed to thrive in a competitive market.
